240000000702- Schedule B.2.- Pricing Catalog Format Example.xlsx

This is a Schedule B.2 Pricing Catalog Format Example for RFP 24000000702, demonstrating the standardized template and data structure required for vendor submissions in a state and local cooperative procurement initiative. The document provides a comprehensive example of how suppliers must present their product offerings, utilizing Central Michigan Paper Co as a sample vendor submitting office paper products through the Boise 645 commodity classification. The catalog format example includes multipurpose recycled copy paper and standard multipurpose copy paper in 8.5 x 11 inch format, presented across multiple pricing tiers based on volume thresholds ranging from 100,000 sheets (Tier A) to 3,000,000 or more sheets (Tier D), with all items demonstrating a standard five-day delivery timeframe.

The pricing structure demonstrates tiered volume-based pricing with costs varying by purchase quantity. Recycled copy paper products range from $12.70 per unit in Tier A to $11.71 in Tier D, while standard copy paper products range from $10.70 per unit in Tier A to $9.96 in Tier D. The catalog format template requires vendors to populate extensive data fields including supplier part numbers, manufacturer information, commodity codes, detailed item descriptions, unit of measure specifications, product characteristics such as size and color, and miscellaneous data fields for additional attributes. This standardized format enables participating agencies within the cooperative purchasing consortium to efficiently compare vendor offerings, pricing structures, and product specifications across different volume commitments, facilitating transparent procurement processes and volume-based cost savings for public entities.
