About this file
This Addendum #1 to IFB #251-27-175 provides clarification and detailed specifications for Wake County Public Schools' book procurement for its Wake Up & Read program. The solicitation seeks bids for approximately 18,000 books across multiple grade levels and themes, including pre-K through grade 5 variety packs, character-focused collections, Spanish-language titles, and subject-specific books addressing dinosaurs, plants, insects, social-emotional learning, environmental awareness, and biographies. Bidders are not required to bid on every title, and the award may be made to a single bidder or multiple bidders at the district's discretion. All books must be delivered by January 15, 2027. The addendum clarifies that ISBN numbers are provided for all individual book titles, books do not require processing such as barcodes or labels, and substitutions must closely match the original titles' format, reading level, and specifications. References are not required to be from North Carolina only, and the document includes a comprehensive line-item listing of 85 distinct titles or bulk packs with specified quantities ranging from 50 to 500 units per item.
Pricing is identified as the primary award criterion, with secondary evaluation factors including quality of service, vendor experience, and references (minimum three references demonstrating three years of quality work). Vendors must include all shipping charges in line-item pricing, with FOB delivery to WCPSS Central Receiving at 1551 Rock Quarry Road, Building F in Raleigh, North Carolina. Wake County Public Schools is not tax-exempt; applicable North Carolina sales tax must be invoiced separately. Payment terms are net within thirty days of correct invoice receipt or goods acceptance, whichever is later. The resulting contract is structured as an Agency Specific Term Contract. Vendors must comply with federal requirements, state and local laws, E-Verify employment verification, Affordable Care Act provisions, sexual offender registry checks for all personnel, and debarment certifications.
