About this file
This is a Questions and Answers document for Bid No. 22-497 issued by the DeKalb County School District Purchasing Department in Georgia for custodial supplies. The bid solicitation was posted on September 16, 2021, with responses required by 2:00 PM on Tuesday, October 12, 2021, and a virtual public bid opening scheduled for 3:00 PM on Wednesday, October 12, 2021. The bid includes multiple groups of custodial supply items, including Group 8 for skin care products, with specific quantities requested such as 10,000 units of packaged foam antimicrobial hand soap enriched with vitamins and moisturizers (GOJO product number 516104). The invitation to bid seeks to establish a term contract for delivery of custodial supplies to the District's central warehouse at 1701 Mountain Industrial Boulevard in Stone Mountain, Georgia.
Regarding pricing and award structure, the District indicated that specific pricing provisions are detailed on page 3 of the bid document. One vendor inquiry addressed the volatility of raw material costs in the trash can liner industry and requested consideration of 90-day pricing review options rather than one-year fixed pricing; however, the District directed the vendor to the price provision section for response. The award structure will be determined according to the Purpose and Objective section referenced on page 16, with indication that the award may involve multiple vendors rather than a sole source arrangement. The bid document does not specify contract term length, renewal options, or funding sources in the questions and answers provided.
