About this file

This is Addendum 1 to Request for Proposal 22-19 issued by the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (SCCPSS) in Georgia for Library Media Books, Materials, and Support Services. The addendum clarifies submission requirements and modifies the proposal due date to December 7, 2021, at 2:00 p.m. The solicitation seeks one or more qualified full-service suppliers or jobbers to provide library books, non-print resources, and ancillary services to approximately 51 media centers within the school system. Successful vendors will be listed in the SCCPSS Annual Bid Contract Book as approved vendors for library media and materials; however, no specific orders are guaranteed. Respondents must answer all questions, accept all required terms and conditions, comply with free shipping requirements, and follow all cataloging and processing specifications outlined in the RFP.

Key clarifications provided in the addendum address submission formatting, documentation requirements, and signature protocols. The RFP requires written signatures only; electronic signatures are not acceptable at this time. Vendors must submit exhibits A through E in a separate email with the subject line "RFP 22-19 Fee Proposal Exhibits A-E." All proposals should follow the format specified on page 38 of the RFP. Regarding cataloging specifications, vendors must provide fully catalogued records in US MARC format following SCCPSS cataloging specifications and include sample barcode labels; these materials should be attached directly to the relevant RFP section rather than submitted on CD-ROM or flash drive. For scope of services, vendors may select their own titles for categories in Appendix 2 rather than using a test order. The contract will guarantee a percentage discount for orders exceeding $5,000.00 for participating vendors.
