About this opportunity

The School Board of Polk County, Florida has issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for a 6-month contract to procure classroom and office supplies, specifically Bid Number 010-RW-0825. The procurement seeks to establish a contract for delivering various office and classroom supplies to the Polk County School Board warehouse in Bartow, FL, covering 29 line items including binders, index cards, file folders, paper clips, staplers, tablets, and chart paper. The bid requires electronic submission through VendorLink by August 20, 2024, at 3:00 PM ET, with an anticipated award recommendation posting on August 26, 2024, and Board approval expected on August 29, 2024. The contract period will run from approximately September 4, 2024, to January 31, 2025. Bidders must provide fixed unit pricing and specific brand/model information, with no substitutions allowed except for discontinued items with manufacturer-approved replacements. The School Board reserves the right to purchase more or less than the estimated quantities and to award the bid on a composite or line-item basis, with evaluation likely focusing on pricing, brand compliance, and ability to meet specific supply specifications.

The procurement appears open to multiple vendors, with no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises explicitly mentioned. The bid documentation indicates that multiple vendors will be awarded contracts, including A+ School Supplies, Cascade School Supplies, National Art and School Supplies, Pyramid Paper Company, Quill LLC, School Specialty, LLC, and W.B. Mason Co., Inc. Each vendor will be allocated specific line items based on their bid submissions. The anticipated total bid value is approximately $97,041, based on historical purchasing data. The School Board includes provisions for potential price adjustments after 90 days due to marketplace volatility. Vendors must comply with various state and federal regulations, including E-Verify, anti-discrimination policies, and procurement requirements. The contract allows for flexible purchasing, with the School Board able to place purchase orders as needed and with the explicit instruction that vendors should not ship products without specific authorization.
