The bid opens on 5/6/2024 at 1:00 PM CDT and closes on 5/29/2024 at 1:00 PM CDT, with the contract term being one year from the award date. The State reserves the option to renew the contract for up to two additional annual extensions, and the resulting contract will be available to all State Agencies.

The solicitation requires vendors to provide 50-pound bags or comparable quantities of bakery mixes, with specific instructions to add water only except where noted. The procurement uses the commodity code 39300 for staple grocery and grocer's miscellaneous items. Vendors must comply with various terms, including an administrative fee of 1.00% on all sales, quarterly sales reporting, and potential availability to political subdivisions and nonprofit entities. The bid allows for the contract to be used by public entities like cities, counties, and schools, as well as nonprofit organizations qualifying under IRS § 501(c) provisions. Payment terms include a 60-day invoice payment period, and the State prefers to use its Purchasing Card Program (Pcard) for transactions.
