TIPS Kiosk Renewal

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) is seeking competitive bids through an Invitation for Bids (IFB) to establish a contract for the renewal of the TIPS Kiosk Software, which is a management solution for kiosks within the HHSC. The scope of work includes software subscription renewal, installation, setup, and support services for the TIPS Kiosk system, with the goal of improving the security posture. The contract will be available for use by both HHSC and the Department of State Health Services (DSHS). The IFB provides details on the required services, pricing structure, and evaluation criteria, with a response deadline of August 26, 2024 and an anticipated contract start date of September 1, 2024. The initial contract term is for one year, with the possibility of a one-year extension at the sole option of the HHS Agency.

The IFB is open to all vendors, with no set-aside requirements mentioned. The historical spend for the same or similar services was $207,383.80 for the prior contract period. The IFB does not specify any incumbent vendor information. The contract will cover multiple jurisdictions within Texas, including Travis County and the City of Austin, and will be funded through the HHSC's budget.
