7-BPS Procurement Policy Links.pdf

This document is a procurement policy reference guide for Buffalo Public Schools (BPS) in New York, providing links to four key purchasing policies that govern the district's procurement processes. The policies referenced include the general Purchasing Policy (5410), Alternative Formats for Instructional Materials (5412), Procurement procedures under Uniform Grant Guidance for Federal Awards (5413), and Minority and/or Women Owned Business Enterprises (5414). These policies establish the framework through which BPS conducts its procurement activities, including the mold remediation project solicitation for approximately 70 district schools and facilities. The mold remediation work will be performed according to plans provided by certified Mold Assessors for each project location and may include selective demolition, mold removal, cleaning, and treatment of mold-contaminated surfaces.

The document does not provide specific information regarding pricing terms, contract duration, bid deadlines, site visit schedules, or award dates. However, the reference to Policy 5414 indicates that BPS prioritizes opportunities for Minority and/or Women Owned Business Enterprises (MWBEs) in its procurement processes. Interested bidders should review the linked policies directly, particularly the Purchasing Policy and MWBE requirements, to understand the specific terms, set-asides, submission requirements, and evaluation criteria applicable to the mold remediation opportunity. The document serves as a navigational resource to BPS's procurement governance structure rather than containing detailed solicitation specifications.
