(Sole Source) MA - Intoximeters - IC

The Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences is requesting a five-year sole-source agreement with annual renewals for intoximeters serving its Implied Consent laboratory in Pelham, Alabama, with responses due September 24, 2026. This is a sole-source procurement; only the named incumbent or sole qualified supplier may respond.

Pricing must be fixed for the life of the contract, valid from award through September 30, 2031. The laboratory's physical address will change within approximately one year of award. Suppliers must be registered in Alabama Buys and submit responses electronically through that platform.

The total contract cost, including the original agreement and all renewals, may not exceed $25,000. Price increases during performance are capped at 5 percent of the annual contract cost and require written approval from both parties. The Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences must remain within budget constraints when processing awards and issuing purchase orders.

Suppliers must comply with E-Verify requirements for any workers employed in Alabama, provide sales tax exemption documentation, and comply with Alabama's open trade and no-boycott provisions. The State reserves the right to conduct cost realism and price reasonableness analyses and may request documentation of supplier qualifications, manufacturer authorizations, and professional licenses.
