2025 spring janitorial supply bid

The Franklin Parish School Board is soliciting sealed bids for a comprehensive janitorial supplies contract covering the period from January 1, 2025, through June 30, 2025. The procurement involves a detailed catalog of 69 distinct janitorial items, including cleaning chemicals, tools, disposable supplies, gloves, masks, and paper products, with specific quantity and packaging requirements for each item. Bids must be submitted by Friday, January 31, 2025, at 12:00 PM CST, with a public bid opening scheduled for 1:00 PM CST the same day at the school board office located at 7293 Prairie Road, Winnsboro, LA 71295. Bidders are required to complete the attached bid forms, provide a current W-9, and can submit their proposals either via sealed envelope or through bidnetdirect.com. The evaluation criteria focus on selecting the lowest responsible bidder, with the Franklin Parish School Board reserving the right to waive defects, reject any or all bids, and cancel orders if the selected vendor fails to comply with bid requirements within 30 days of order placement.

While no specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned in the documentation, the bid process appears open to qualified janitorial supply vendors. The procurement does not list incumbent vendors or specify existing infrastructure requirements for integration. Vendors should note that federal excise taxes are not applicable, and Louisiana state and local sales taxes should be excluded from bid pricing. The bid document does not provide a specific budget range or total contract value, instead focusing on unit pricing for the 69 individual janitorial supply items. Interested vendors can obtain additional information and bid specifications by contacting the Franklin Parish School Board directly at (318) 435-9046, with bid forms available at the school board office or through bidnetdirect.com.
