About this file

This is Addendum 1 to Request for Proposals (RFP) 20251114TCM issued by The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill for bookstore management services. The addendum revises the anticipated procurement schedule and key submission dates. The mandatory bidders conference and site visit are scheduled for January 6, 2026, at 1:00 PM ET, with written questions due by January 8, 2026. The university will respond to written questions by January 15, 2026, at 4:00 PM ET. Proposals must be submitted by February 10, 2026, at 2:00 PM ET, with the public bid opening occurring the same day at 4:00 PM ET. The contract award date remains to be determined. The proposed contract term is seven years beginning July 1, 2026, with potential university-held renewal options for up to three additional one-year terms. Vendors must return an executed copy of this addendum prior to the proposal opening date, either included with their proposal or emailed separately to Troy Morse at troy.morse@unc.edu.

The addendum updates the original RFP timeline, pushing back key dates from the initial schedule. The procurement encompasses management of multiple retail and service locations including the main bookstore, Bull's Head Bookshop, Carolina Computing Initiative/Computer Store, Student Stores website, U.S. Postal Contract Station, Convenience Store, and Online Course Materials Store. The current UNC Student Stores generated $18.6 million in total sales during Fiscal Year 2025 with approximately 32,438 students enrolled. Contractors must adhere to strict pricing policies, including 20-25% gross profit margins on textbooks and course materials, maintain comprehensive PCI-DSS payment processing compliance, provide all staffing with background checks, and commit to monthly financial reporting and quarterly advisory committee meetings. The contract opportunity does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises.
