The solicitation encourages participation from diverse businesses, including those owned by minorities, women, veterans, and individuals with substantial physical disabilities. Eligible businesses can receive up to 12% preference points, with DEED/DHS providers potentially receiving an additional 6% preference points. Bidders must be registered as either a bidder or supplier and comply with the state's commitment to diversity and inclusion in procurement. The contract prohibits goods containing specific substances like triclosan, coal tar, and polybrominated diphenyl ether, and will be subject to Amara's Law regarding PFAS in products starting January 1, 2025. While the exact award value is not specified, the solicitation indicates that all pricing must include inherent costs of providing goods and services, with no additional charges permitted beyond the listed price. The state reserves the right to reject any or all bids, and submitted responses must remain valid for 90 days. Bidders encountering submission issues can contact the SWIFT Vendor Helpline at 651-201-8100, Option 1, for assistance.
