About this file

This is an Award Information document for Gwinnett County Public Schools detailing the results of a Science Supplies Catalog Discount procurement solicitation (Reference ID 8-2311 BM). The project, managed by Betsy Mccurry within the Curriculum and Instruction Science Department, sought multiple suppliers to provide science supplies through catalog discount agreements. The solicitation resulted in a multiple-award structure with 16 suppliers selected, including Capital Microscope Services, Carolina Biological Supply Company, EAi Education (DBA Discount School Supply), Fisher Scientific Company LLC, Flinn Scientific Inc., Lakeshore Learning Materials, PASCO Scientific, Pitsco Education, Really Good Stuff LLC, School Outfitters, School Specialty LLC, VWR International LLC (Ward's Science), and others. Supplier submissions were received between October 11 and October 25, 2022, with the contract term running from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023.

The award reflects a budgeted amount of $250,000 against a previous award of $200,000, representing a variance of 0%. Discount rates negotiated with suppliers vary significantly, ranging from 2 percent (School Outfitters) to 35 percent (School Specialty LLC supplies with 14 percent for furniture/equipment), with many discounts subject to specified exceptions or exclusions. Notably, Vernier Software & Technology received an award with no discount (0%). The supplier notification breakdown indicates outreach to 275 total entities, including 31 African American-owned, 4 Hispanic/Latino-owned, 13 Asian American-owned, 4 Native American-owned, 1 Pacific Islander/American-owned business, and 222 non-minority suppliers. All potential bidders were required to register through the online Gwinnett Bonfirehub procurement portal to receive notices and submit responses.
