About this opportunity
Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) has issued an Invitation to Quote (ITQ) for Corrugated Cardboard Boxes and Supplies, seeking vendors to provide a comprehensive range of packaging materials for district operations. The procurement covers 20 line items including various sized cardboard boxes with single wall construction, 200 lb test strength, in kraft brown and white/oyster colors, along with supplementary packaging supplies like courier mailers, shrink wrap, polyethylene mailers, mini-wrap, and cleat tape. Vendors must supply all necessary labor, materials, supervision, equipment, and incidentals to complete project needs, with an initial contract term of one year and potential renewals for two additional one-year periods. The solicitation requires electronic submission through VendorLink, with no hard copy submissions accepted. Key dates include a question submission deadline of November 19, 2024, at 4 PM, and a quote submission deadline of November 22, 2024, at 4 PM. Evaluation will be based on unit pricing, with all prices expected to remain firm for at least one year from the contract's effective date.
The district encourages participation from small businesses, with preference given to Office of Supplier Diversity (OSD) registered Small Business Enterprise (SBE) vendors. Contractors must comply with various requirements, including specific insurance specifications, safety standards, and background check protocols. The school district serves approximately 225,000 students across 235 PreK-12 schools and has an annual budget of around $3 billion. Vendors are required to complete a Vendor Affidavit regarding labor coercion and human trafficking prevention, demonstrating compliance with Section 787.06(13) of Florida Statutes. The procurement allows for a cost-plus markup option not to exceed 15%, and HCPS reserves the right to award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with the ability to split awards or reject all bids if deemed necessary. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the solicitation suggests a potentially significant contract value for packaging and shipping materials.
