Rfid wristbands

Westchester County is seeking bids for a Request for Bid (RFB-WC-25106) to procure RFID wristbands and cards for Playland Park through its Bureau of Purchase and Supplies. The procurement involves acquiring 45,000 yellow, 32,500 green, and 15,000 orange custom wristbands, along with 7,500 and 2,500 RFID cards with specific technical requirements. Wristbands must be 1" wide, made of Tyvek or glossy synthetic material, and feature a 1-color white Playland logo imprint with MIFARE 1K-compatible RFID chips and variable numbering. The technical specifications include a 6.4 mil thickness, specific adhesive requirements, and NFC tag details, with the county's park personnel providing the logo artwork. The bid is due on May 15, 2025, before 2 PM, with bidders required to provide unit pricing and lead times after order receipt. Evaluation criteria appear to include pricing, delivery time, and compliance with technical specifications, with the county reserving the right to award bids by individual items, grouped items, or lot.

The solicitation encourages participation from minority-owned, women-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned businesses, indicating potential set-aside or preference provisions for disadvantaged enterprises. Payment terms are structured as 2% 10 net 30, suggesting favorable financial conditions for qualified vendors. While no specific incumbent vendors are mentioned, the detailed technical requirements for RFID technology suggest a preference for vendors with experience in custom wristband and RFID card production for entertainment venues. The bid does not explicitly state a total contract value, but the quantity of wristbands and cards (approximately 100,000 total units) indicates a potentially significant procurement opportunity. Bidders must demonstrate compliance with various state and local laws and be prepared to meet the county's technical and logistical requirements for producing customized RFID wristbands and cards for Playland Park.
