About this opportunity

The School Board of Polk County, Florida, is soliciting bids for a comprehensive first aid supplies contract for the 2024-2025 school year. The procurement seeks to establish a one-year contract for acquiring 33 different first aid and medical supply items to be delivered to the district's warehouse in Bartow, FL. Specific items include alcohol, bandages, cotton balls, gauze pads, ice packs, antiseptic wipes, and various medical accessories, with quantities ranging from 15 to 2,325 units per item. The bid was released on September 19, 2024, with electronic submissions due on October 10, 2024, at 3:00 PM Eastern Time through the VendorLink system. Bidders must comply with strict requirements for approved brands and models, with multiple acceptable manufacturers listed for each item. The anticipated award recommendation will be posted on October 17, 2024, with final approval expected around October 22, 2024. Prices are to remain firm for the entire contract period and must include all freight and handling charges.

The procurement allows for multiple vendors to be awarded, with recommended vendors including Bound Tree Medical, LLC; Henry Schein Inc.; Medical Equipment Sales; Nashville Medical & EMS Products, Inc.; Pyramid School Products; School Health Corporation; and The Soomitz Group, LLC. The School Board reserves the right to purchase additional quantities during the contract period and to utilize other district, state, or governmental contracts if advantageous. Vendors must comply with E-Verify requirements, anti-discrimination policies, and specific procurement guidelines. The bid includes provisions for potential price adjustments after 90 days due to marketplace volatility, subject to the district's discretion. Notably, some bid items (11, 27, and 31) received no acceptable bids, and the district will obtain quotes as necessary. Bidders must follow specific bid protest procedures, with failure to do so resulting in a waiver of protest rights. While no specific set-aside designations were mentioned, the bid appears open to qualifying medical supply vendors who can meet the specified brand and quantity requirements.
