Attachment_B_-_Sheridan_Dredging_Combined_drawing.pdf

This is an Attachment B document containing a combined drawing related to Sheridan Dredging for the Kansas State Department of Education's Universal Reading Screener proposal on behalf of Kansas public school districts and accredited nonpublic schools. However, the provided file content does not include the actual drawing or technical specifications; rather, it references a PDF document that would contain detailed project schematics or engineering drawings for a dredging project. The scope requires a single nationally normed universal reading screener for pre-K through 8th grade students designed to identify those at risk for reading difficulty. Proposals are due October 7, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. CDT, with written questions due by September 16, 2026. No pre-bid conference is scheduled. The contract term runs from January 1, 2027, through June 30, 2030, with an option to renew for one additional twenty-four-month period. Screener administration commences July 1, 2027, following an initial budget period dedicated to professional development.

Vendors must provide per-student rates for screener administration covering all costs associated with administration, scoring, and reporting three times per year, plus separate rates for professional development and training options offered in hourly, daily, in-person, and virtual formats. No funding has been appropriated for the screener; costs are paid directly by individual school districts and nonpublic schools at rates negotiated by the Kansas State Department of Education. Payment terms are Net 30 days via electronic funds transfer or Kansas Procurement Card. Kansas Bidder Preference programs apply, including Disabled Veteran Owned Business and Certified Business categories where vendors provide appropriate supporting documentation. Bidders must register with the State of Kansas, submit a tax clearance certificate from the Kansas Department of Revenue, and provide certifications on immigration compliance, sexual harassment policy, Israel boycott, and telecommunications equipment. Award will be made by the Procurement Negotiation Committee based on vendor qualifications, ability to meet scope requirements, and cost, with selected vendors potentially required to present proposals before the committee.
