This document is a Notice of Award issued by the School Board of Polk County, Florida's Purchasing Department for Bid File Number 070-RW-0625, titled "Art Materials - Stock". On July 9, 2025, the Superintendent approved contract awards for art materials to multiple vendors, including Blick Art Materials LLC, Cascade School Supplies, National Art & School Supplies, Inc., Pyramid School Products, School Specialty, LLC, and Staples Contract and Commercial. Each vendor was awarded specific bid line items ranging from 1-157, with some items (21, 22, 41, 42) requiring additional quotes to be obtained as needed. The contract appears to be for stocking art materials for the school district, with vendors providing different ranges of art supply items.

The Notice of Award specifies that vendors should not ship products, order materials, or proceed with services without explicit authorization from the School Board of Polk County. Purchase orders will be placed by the district's personnel as needed, with Robert Woods in the Purchasing Department designated as the point of contact for any questions arising from the award recommendation. The document serves as a formal notification of the bid awards and outlines the specific line items assigned to each vendor, providing a clear breakdown of which suppliers will provide which art material categories for the school district's procurement.
