Classroom Supplies for Tuba City Boarding School

The Department of the Interior's Bureau of Indian Education is soliciting quotes for classroom supplies to support the Tuba City Boarding School through Request for Quote No. 140A2325Q0194. The procurement encompasses 42 different classroom supply items including notebooks, pencils, highlighters, erasers, scissors, glue, folders, and other miscellaneous school materials classified under NAICS code 339940 for office supplies manufacturing. This is a firm fixed-price purchase order with a contract period running from July 15, 2025, to July 14, 2026, requiring delivery within 30 days after receipt of order. Offerors must submit complete quotes including product specifications, proof of authorized distribution, and all-inclusive pricing. The deadline for both quote submissions and technical questions is July 15, 2025, giving potential contractors only four days from the July 11, 2025 posting date to respond.

This solicitation is designated as a 100% small business set-aside specifically for Indian Small Business Economic Enterprises (ISBEE), reflecting the federal government's commitment to supporting Native American-owned businesses. The size standard for eligible businesses is 750 employees, and no incumbent contractors are identified in the available documentation. While specific award values or budget ranges are not disclosed in the solicitation notice, the scope involves procuring supplies for an entire boarding school facility. The classroom supplies will be delivered to the Tuba City Boarding School located in Arizona, serving the educational needs of Native American students in that region. The relatively short contract period of one year and the 30-day delivery requirement indicate this is likely an annual replenishment contract for essential educational materials.
