Background Screening and Drug & Alcohol Testing Services

Description: Washington State Department of Enterprise Services is soliciting proposals for a statewide vendor to provide background screening, electronic fingerprinting, and drug-and-alcohol testing services for state agencies and authorized entities. The 36-month base contract may include a 24-month performance-based extension and requires rapid turnaround, data-security compliance, a fingerprint rejection rate no greater than 3%, two-business-day screening results, DOT-compliant testing, insurance, Washington registrations, quarterly sales reports, and a 1.5% vendor-management fee. This is a competitive procurement rather than a grant program, with proposals due October 5, 2026.
