Pricing must be submitted on a state-supplied price sheet as firm, fixed unit prices per two-dose carton inclusive of all freight and shipping costs. Historical volumes were 223,020 cartons in 2024 and 265,500 cartons in 2025, with annual expenditures of $7,995,792 and $7,796,712 respectively. The contract base term is three years with an option to extend up to three additional years in one-year increments.

Electronic questions are due September 11, 2026 at 2:00 PM Eastern Time. No pre-quote conference or site visit is required. Bidders must submit a Specification Conformance Form, Bidder Data Sheet documenting prior contracts of similar scope and any terminations for cause within five years, and all required New Jersey standard procurement certifications including ownership disclosure, Iran investment activities, debarment certification, affirmative action compliance, and business registration.
