260803BTF969_Paper_Products_for_Warehouse_Stock.xlsx

This is a cost proposal form for an Invitation to Bid (ITB) issued by a Florida school district to establish a supplier for disposable paper products for warehouse stock. The bid number is 26-0803-B-TF969, and it solicits competitive bids to supply five categories of paper products: facial tissue, multi-fold paper towels, single-fold paper towels, toilet tissue, and disposable wipers. The estimated quantities are 500 cases of facial tissue, 1,800 cases of multi-fold paper towels, 8,500 cases of single-fold paper towels, 2,500 cases of toilet tissue, and 900 cases of wipers. The district specifies minimum order quantities for each item, ranging from 144 cases for wipers to 1,540 cases for single-fold paper towels. The award will be granted to a single vendor offering the best overall cost savings on the entire product lot, and all five items must be bid to be considered for award. Stock will be ordered on an as-needed basis with no guaranteed purchase quantities.

The cost proposal requires vendors to submit unit prices and total prices for each item, with all line items initially listed at $0.00 pending bid submission. Vendors must provide their name and address on the form. While the district specifies preferred brands—including Cascades Pro Select for tissue and paper towels, Victoria Bay for toilet tissue, and Pristine Clean for wipers—alternate brands are permitted provided they match the quality, size, durability, and thickness of the requested items. Any proposed alternate brands require sample submission and evaluation per the district's specified procedures. The proposal includes space for special exceptions or considerations and identifies the relevant stock numbers for each item used within the district's inventory system.
