Description
This is a Quick‑Quote solicitation issued by the State of Alabama’s Chief Procurement Officer for the purchase of laboratory supplies. The solicitation is open for a very short window (March 9‑12 2026) and is intended for vendors that are registered in the Alabama Buys portal and can meet the standard CPO compliance requirements (e‑Verify, tax registration, etc.). Because it is a quick‑quote, the State expects rapid response and delivery, and the award will be based on price and compliance rather than a detailed technical evaluation.
• Scope: General lab‑supply items (no detailed list provided – vendors should be prepared to supply typical consumables, glassware, reagents, etc.).
• Timeline: Bids must be submitted by March 12, 2026 5 PM CST; the process is fast‑track with no formal pre‑bid conference.
• Eligibility: Must be a registered Alabama Buys vendor, meet E‑Verify, tax, and foreign‑entity registration requirements outlined in the boiler‑plate terms.
• Award: Not disclosed; likely shortly after the close date, with payment terms governed by the standard state contract language.
