NIGP 97241: Participant Costs, Tuition

NIGP 97241 Participant Costs, Tuition is an Item code under which state and local governments procure instructional resources, materials, equipment, memberships, and related services to support career technical education, advanced academics, dual credit programs, and college readiness initiatives. The code captures spending by school districts on curriculum materials, textbooks, STEM enrichment resources, test preparation, technology software and equipment, and specialized program equipment across multiple instructional tracks—including Advanced Placement, gifted and talented education, honors-level instruction, and 17 distinct CTE program areas such as agricultural science, architecture and construction, business and finance, health sciences, information technology, manufacturing and robotics, welding, and transportation. Issuing bodies under this code are school districts; the available opportunity record shows a large independent school district in a major metropolitan area actively procuring across multiple instructional categories in a single consolidated RFP.

Klein Independent School District in Harris County, Texas posted RFP 26-101 on April 17, 2026, for Career Technical Education and Advanced Academics instructional resources, products, materials, equipment, memberships, and related services with a response deadline of June 5, 2026. The district allows vendors to submit proposals for one or more categories and reserves the right to award contracts by category to multiple vendors; evaluation criteria include purchase price, vendor reputation, quality, extent of meeting district needs, past relationship with the district, and total long-term cost. The contract is structured as a firm fixed-price agreement with an initial one-year term and four optional one-year renewals beginning September 1, 2026. Klein ISD actively encourages use of HUB, MWBE, and SBE vendors as prime contractors and subcontractors and requires all vendors to be licensed in Texas and Harris County, maintain $1,000,000 minimum general liability and workers' compensation insurance, provide three references, and comply with background check and OSHA requirements.
