About this file
This is a Product Substitution Request Form for the McAllen Independent School District (ISD) Child Nutrition Program (CNP), establishing the formal process by which vendors and distributors may request approval to substitute approved awarded products with alternate products. Vendors must submit completed substitution requests to Liz Montes at emontes@mcallenisd.net a minimum of 72 hours prior to the scheduled delivery date. The form requires vendors to provide detailed information for up to two items per submission, including the bid item number, product description, distributor order number, brand/manufacturer, SKU/product number, pack size, unit of measure, and case price for both the awarded and proposed alternate products. Vendors must also provide a written reason for each requested substitution.
Upon receipt, McAllen ISD CNP staff completes a verification section that documents whether the substitute product meets or exceeds the quality of the awarded product, whether the substitution request was submitted within the required 72-hour timeframe, and whether supporting documentation including CN labels, nutritional analysis, and other product information was provided. The form includes checkboxes for approval or denial of the substitution request. Additionally, vendors must submit a signed Buy American Provision Certification form alongside the substitution request to ensure compliance with applicable procurement requirements.
