The CDOC reserves the right to award the solicitation to a single bidder or divide the award among multiple bidders as deemed in the State's best interest. Preference in evaluation is given to Colorado-based Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses. Payment terms are assumed to be Net-30 days after receipt of goods and invoice unless otherwise specified by the bidder; terms less than 30 days may be acceptable if they include a discount incentive. No incumbent vendors, existing infrastructure requirements, or budget ranges are specified in the solicitation. Bidders are required to monitor the solicitation during the open period for any modifications or addenda, as the CDOC will not actively notify prospective bidders of changes. All award results will be posted on the Colorado VSS website following the bid submission date.
