Baker and Labconco HEPA Exhaust and Supply Filter (Brand Name or Equivalent)

The Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Forensic Science is soliciting bids for a one-time purchase of various Baker and Labconco HEPA exhaust and supply filters for its Western Laboratory in Roanoke, Virginia. The procurement includes six specific line items with detailed dimensions and pressure drop requirements, though brand name equivalents are acceptable provided they meet quality and suitability standards. All items must feature a double closed cell EPDM or neoprene gasket. Delivery is FOB Destination to Roanoke, and because the facility lacks a loading dock, a lift gate is required for delivery. The bid price must be all-inclusive of freight and installation charges, and the materials are guaranteed against defects for twelve months following installation. Bids must be submitted electronically via the eVA system by September 29, 2026. The contract will be awarded on a grand total basis to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with a priority hierarchy favoring DSBSD-certified micro businesses for bids up to 10,000 dollars and small businesses for bids up to 100,000 dollars. Bidders must be registered in eVA and provide comprehensive technical literature and catalog cuts to be considered responsive. The Department of Forensic Science retains the option to order additional quantities up to 100 percent of the original amount within the first 90 days of the contract. Payment terms are set at 30 days after the receipt of goods.
