The second section focuses on the proposer's organizational capability. Proposers need to demonstrate their technical, managerial, and financial capability to carry out the scope of services described in the RFP. This includes the ability to complete and report on initial screening tests within 96 hours, perform the estimated annual volume of tests, complete confirmatory tests within 10 days, and maintain confidentiality of reports and information. Proposers also need to disclose any claims, investigations, complaints, or lawsuits brought against them in the past five years and any actions regarding the denial, loss, or suspension of licenses, certificates, or permits. The third section requires proposers to describe their proposed approach to providing the drug testing services. This includes detailing their methodology and scientific process for conducting tests, the standards used for testing hair samples, and their position on potential biases in the testing process. Proposers also need to describe the equipment, facility, and space available for testing and sample storage, as well as their procedures for chain of custody, legal support, training, and reporting. The document also mentions the need for secure facilities, background checks, and the ability to differentiate between external contamination and ingestion of drugs. The document concludes with the fourth section, which is the Price Proposal. Proposers are required to complete and submit a Price Proposal form, providing unit prices for initial tests, confirmation tests, expert witness and legal support, and training. The estimated annual volumes of services are included for comparison purposes, and proposers can propose a percentage increase for potential renewal terms. Alternative price proposals are also allowed. Additionally, the document includes a section where proposers need to affirm their compliance with any debts, contracts, or taxes owed to New York. This serves as a declaration by the proposer regarding any outstanding financial obligations to the state. Overall, the document provides a comprehensive overview of the requirements and expectations for proposers to submit their proposals for drug testing services to the NYPD.
