The Missouri Department of Corrections (DOC) has issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB) numbered IFB931ER234N9024 for SD Cable/Satellite Television Services at the Potosi Correctional Center located in Mineral Point, Missouri. The procurement seeks monthly standard definition cable/satellite television services with a required channel listing specified in Attachment 1, along with optional a la carte pricing for additional standard channels. Vendors must submit sealed bids to the DOC Purchasing Section in Jefferson City between March 14, 2019, and April 4, 2019, at 8:00 PM GMT. Non-mandatory site tours are available by appointment with Laura Kernan, the PCC Business Manager, with at least four business days' advance notice. The contract will have an initial term with three optional one-year renewal periods, and vendors are required to provide maximum pricing for each renewal period. Deliverables include a comprehensive cable/satellite television service package meeting the specific channel requirements of the correctional center, with payment processed based on final delivery, inspection, and acceptance of services.

The solicitation appears to be open to all vendors without specific set-aside designations or restrictions on participating organizations. No information is provided about incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure requirements. The bid documents do not specify a total estimated contract value or budget range for the cable/satellite television services. Vendors must complete and submit Exhibit A and any other applicable exhibits as part of their bid response. Delivery terms are specified as Free On Board Destination, and the procurement process requires vendors to submit detailed pricing for both the base monthly service package and potential additional a la carte channels. While the specific evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed in the available documents, the bid appears to be primarily focused on meeting the specified channel requirements and providing competitive pricing for the initial term and potential renewal periods.
