About this file

This document is a Request for Pricing (RFP) from the Effingham County School District (ECSD) for furnishing and installing items for their day care centers across two sites for the 2023-2024 school year. The RFP requires a turnkey solution, with the selected vendor responsible for ordering, delivering, assembling, and installing all required items. There are 9 classrooms with varying age ranges at each of the two sites, with the needs listed in separate documents. ECSD will not accept bids for furniture that requires overseas shipping and assembly. Vendors must be U.S.-based companies with manufacturing/warehousing facilities in the U.S. All furniture must be assembled prior to delivery and installation. Cribs must meet safety standards from the Consumer Product Safety Commission and the American Society of Testing and Materials. Quantities may change based on final needs analysis. Pricing responses are due by 4:30 PM on 10/6/23, and the delivery and installation window is 12/27/23 to 1/1/24, with the day care centers' open houses on 1/2/24.

Pricing will be the primary factor, but ECSD will also consider past experience, references, quality of items, and the ability to meet the timeline. Vendors must include a current W-9 and references if they have not previously done business with ECSD. ECSD does not have forklift or loading dock facilities, so vendors must make appropriate arrangements for delivery.

Pricing request for ECSD district day care center needs for 2023-2024 school year We are accepting pricing currently for the daycare center needs for our school sites for the 2023-2024 school year. We will award as a turn key project, with vendor handling ordering, delivery, assembly and install of items listed. Addresses of the two sites are included. There are 9 classrooms with varying age ranges at each site to be furnished, needs listings for both sites are separate documents. Because of the current state of delivery delays of overseas items, we will NOT accept bids for furniture that has to be shipped unassembled from outside of the continental United States. Bidding vendors must be a U.S. company, with manufacturing/warehousing facilities in the United States. Items should be assembled at your U.S. facility, not on school premises. We will not be able to provide any type of staging area, furniture will need to arrive assembled and ready for install. We also do NOT have any type of fork lift or loading dock facilities, so please make appropriate arrangements. If you cannot meet these requirements, do not bid. For items with a specific manufacturer and/or model indicated, we will NOT be accepting any sub items unless specifically noted. Cribs have to be safety approved in compliance with the Consumer Product Safety Commission and the American Society of Testing and Materials safety standards for all infant products (Infant being defined as any child under the age of 12 months or under 18 months of not walking). Quantities may change slightly based on daycare final needs analysis. Please include in your pricing response a current W-9 for your company, and if you have not done business with our district previously, references should be included in your pricing response. Items will be awarded based on pricing as a primary factor, but not exclusively. Other factors considered are past experience (if applicable), references if no prior experience with our system, quality of items offered (alternate items proposed), and whether the time frame needs can be met. If you cannot meet the time line specified, do not bid.

Important dates: Delivery and install window: 12/27/23 to 1/1/24 IMPERATIVE that job is complete by 1/1/24, as Day Care Center open houses are 1/2/24.

If there are any questions, please contact Jill Vandenbos, by email at svandenbos@effingham.k12.ga.us. We are accepting pricing via email or in person drop off through 4:30 PM on 10/6/23.
