About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The Madison Metropolitan School District (MMSD) in Wisconsin is seeking a comprehensive procurement of AP African American Studies Core Materials through Request for Proposal (RFP) 4139, targeting instructional resources for teaching the College Board's AP African American Studies course. The district requires materials that are research-founded, historically accurate, culturally relevant, and fully accessible across multiple learning environments, specifically emphasizing resources for English language learners, advanced learners, and students with disabilities. Vendors must provide both print and digital materials compatible with Google Chromebooks and single sign-on through Classlink, with a requirement to include robust teacher resources that provide clear pedagogical guidance and content support. The RFP was posted on February 17, 2025, with proposals due on March 11, 2025 at 2:00 PM CST, and a potential vendor conference scheduled for March 5, 2025. Evaluation criteria will comprehensively assess vendors across multiple dimensions: cost (5%), service and support capabilities (65%), organizational qualifications and experience (20%), diverse-owned business status (5%), and references (5%). The anticipated contract will serve approximately 200 students and 4 teachers across four comprehensive high schools, with Board of Education approval expected by May 19, 2025.

The procurement includes a 5% preference for diverse-owned businesses certified through the Wisconsin Supplier Diversity Program, indicating a commitment to supporting minority and disadvantaged enterprises. The contract will initially be awarded with an option to renew for three additional one-year periods, providing potential long-term engagement for the selected vendor. Pricing must incorporate governmental and educational discounts, with payment typically processed after successful goods/service delivery. Vendors will be required to demonstrate commitment to equal employment opportunity and affirmative action principles. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly detailed, the scope suggests a substantial investment in comprehensive instructional materials designed to support an advanced, culturally responsive academic program. The district's technology infrastructure, including Google Chromebooks and Classlink single sign-on, will serve as the primary integration environment for the selected materials, necessitating vendor compatibility and technical adaptability.
