Cotton Batting

The Texas Department of Criminal Justice is soliciting bids for the procurement of cotton batting under solicitation number IW222654, with a posted date of June 5, 2026, and a response deadline of June 19, 2026. The procurement falls under NAICS code 313230 and is issued by a state-level law enforcement and corrections agency, with the place of performance designated as Texas. All submissions must be made electronically through the TDCJ Procurement Portal at tdcj.bonfirehub.com, and vendors are required to register via the Euna Procurement website to participate. The point of contact for inquiries is Kelly Pegoda, reachable via phone or email. Despite the solicitation title and contract description clearly indicating cotton batting as the item of interest, there is a conflicting mention within the instructions to respondents that the agency is soliciting for polo shirts, creating ambiguity in the scope of supplies required. No detailed specifications, quantities, pricing, delivery schedules, inspection criteria, packaging requirements, or contract administration details are provided in the available documentation, and the estimated contract value is not disclosed. No contract clauses, evaluation factors, representations, certifications, or special requirements are included in the provided materials, leaving respondents to rely entirely on the procurement portal for complete solicitation documents. The solicitation does not specify a period of performance, FOB terms, or any set-aside provisions, and responses will not be accepted after the official deadline.
