Pool of Vendors, Massage Therapy Services

Texas A&M University's Procurement Services is issuing an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for a Pool of Vendors for Massage Therapy Services under solicitation TAMU-RFQ-26-4909. The procurement seeks qualified massage therapy service providers to establish a vendor pool for the university. Vendors must be currently listed on the State of Texas Centralized Master Bidders List (CMBL) to be eligible to participate. The solicitation requires electronic submission through the AggieBid site, with all bid documentation exclusively available on that platform. The bid is scheduled to close on October 29, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. Central Standard Time, with a strict policy of rejecting any bids received after the specified deadline. Potential vendors are instructed to regularly check the AggieBid website (https://bids.sciquest.com/apps/Router/PublicEvent?CustomerOrg=TAMU) for the complete solicitation details and any potential addenda. Texas A&M University reserves the right to modify the bid closing time if necessary.

The solicitation does not explicitly detail specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises in the provided documentation. The procurement appears to be open to vendors currently registered on the State of Texas CMBL, which suggests some baseline qualification requirements. While specific award values or budget ranges are not disclosed in the current document, the creation of a vendor pool implies multiple potential contract opportunities for selected massage therapy service providers. Vendors interested in participating must complete the electronic registration and submission process through the AggieBid platform, ensuring full compliance with all solicitation requirements. The university's approach of establishing a pool of vendors suggests flexibility in future service engagement and potential ongoing contractual relationships for massage therapy services.
