This is a proposal form for a term contract with the Florida school district (identified as MCPS in the document) to supply plumbing supplies for maintenance operations and daily technical services. The bid solicitation encompasses three categories: Category 1 consists of 102 fixed-price line items covering a comprehensive range of plumbing supplies including hose bibbs, P-traps, faucets, braided supply hoses, flush valve components, sprinkler heads, toilet repair kits, water coolers, adapters, and adhesive products from manufacturers such as Sloan, Fluidmaster, T&S Brass, Elkay, and Hunter. Category 2 requires bidders to provide fixed discounts off manufacturer's suggested list prices for 42 different manufacturers including American Standard, Delta, Kohler, Oatey, and Watts. Category 3 requests a balance-of-line discount percentage for walk-in store purchases of items not contained in the bid. The proposal form requires bidders to submit their firm name, FEI number, and pricing for each line item with estimated quantities ranging from 4 to 1,015 units per item.

The bid is due January 21, 2026 at 2:00 PM, with the contract term running from March 1, 2026 to February 28, 2027 and the board approval date set for February 24, 2026. The district will be closed from December 19, 2025 through January 5, 2026, with any questions submitted during that period to be answered after January 5th. Bidders must submit their completed Excel proposal form through VendorLink along with all required bid submission documents; email submissions to the purchasing department are prohibited. The pricing structure allows for individual unit pricing on specific items, manufacturer discount percentages, and a general balance-of-line discount for non-bid items, enabling the district to establish firm pricing for stocked items at the maintenance parts facility and items needed for ongoing operations of the Technical Services Department.
