About this opportunity
Mississippi State University's Office of Procurement & Contracts is seeking bids for children's educational items through Invitation for Bids (IFB) 25-16/RFX#316000716, with proposals due on February 26, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. The procurement seeks vendors to supply children's manipulative items, books, puzzles, toys, storage bins, and furniture from approved catalogs including Kaplan Early Learning Company, Lakeshore Early Learning Company, and others. Vendors must submit sealed bids either electronically or physically to 245 Barr Avenue, 610 McArthur Hall, Mississippi State, MS 39762. The contract evaluation will be based on a weighted discount structure across four categories: items requiring no assembly (60% weight), unassembled items (30% weight), vendor-assembled and delivered items (5% weight), and vendor on-site assembly (5% weight). The contract will be effective for 12 months starting May 11, 2025, or upon completion of documentation and approval, with all items to be awarded to a single vendor based on the greatest overall weighted discount.
The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types, and will be open to qualified vendors capable of meeting the specified requirements. The estimated contract value is $1,900,000, with specific exclusions for computers, software, most furniture (except children's table and chair sets), and items exceeding $5,000. Order logistics include prepaid freight for orders under $100 and FOB destination with no freight charges for orders over $100. The university may extend this contract as a non-mandatory state contract, potentially allowing other state agencies and governing authorities in Mississippi to utilize the contract. Pricing will be structured around catalog discounts, with vendors required to provide comprehensive pricing across multiple product categories and demonstrating capability to fulfill large-scale educational supply needs.
