About this file
This addendum is a clarification document issued by Taunton Public Schools' Food Service Department in response to vendor questions regarding the Cafeteria Supplies: Paper Invitation for Bid (IFB). The document, issued on May 11, 2026, addresses three specific product specification inquiries from prospective bidders. Taunton Public Schools serves 8,241 students with approximately 5,740 lunches and 3,230 breakfasts provided daily. The IFB seeks paper products for the Food Services Department under a contract term of minimum one year with options to extend up to three years maximum.
The addendum clarifies three product specifications critical to accurate bidding: 9-inch pizza boxes are specified as white SBS board (solid bleached sulfate) rather than corrugated material; Crystalware straws are plastic, individually wrapped, measuring 5¾ inches in length; and 18-inch by 500-foot aluminum foil is standard gauge rather than heavy gauge. These clarifications ensure that all bidders submit proposals based on identical product specifications and pricing, establishing a level playing field for competition on the paper products supply contract.
