The Jackson County Board of Supervisors is seeking unpriced proposals to prequalify vendors for a Rodeo Arena Panel System through a competitive procurement process. This opportunity is structured as an electronic reverse auction procurement, with specific submission requirements and evaluation criteria. Vendors must submit sealed proposals by 2:00 p.m. on September 11, 2025, either electronically or physically to Cindy Steen, the Purchasing Director, located at 2915 Canty Street, Suite D, Pascagoula, MS 39567. The electronic reverse auction is scheduled for September 16, 2025, at 10:00 A.M., with vendors required to pre-qualify by that date. Specifications for the panel system are available on the www.jacksoncoplan.com website, and the Board emphasizes that the specifications are designed to establish performance standards rather than limit bidding to a specific manufacturer. Proposals will be evaluated for participation in the electronic bidding process, with the Board reserving the right to accept or reject any submissions. Late or incomplete proposals will be automatically disqualified.

While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed in the provided documentation, the procurement appears to be open to qualified vendors who can meet the specified performance standards for the Rodeo Arena Panel System. The notice does not indicate restrictions based on business size, minority status, or other enterprise classifications. No incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure requirements are mentioned in the available information. The procurement appears to be a competitive bidding process focused on obtaining a high-quality panel system for a rodeo arena, with the primary goal of selecting a vendor that can meet the specified technical and performance requirements. Although the document does not specify a precise budget range or potential award value, the electronic reverse auction format suggests a competitive pricing mechanism will be employed to determine the most advantageous proposal.
