No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or restrictions on organization types are indicated in the solicitation materials. The IFB requires all bidders to submit a Boycott Statement certification confirming compliance with Utah state laws prohibiting boycotts of Israel and other jurisdictions, which serves as a mandatory prerequisite to bid submission and contract performance. There is no identified incumbent vendor or current contractor information provided in the available documentation. No specific budget range or award value is disclosed in the solicitation; however, the bid is structured as a lump sum with all quantities to be field-verified by the contractor, and vendor pricing is guaranteed for the duration of the procurement process and project completion unless approved in writing by the CCSD Purchasing Manager. Payment terms provide for settlement within thirty days of delivery or correct invoice receipt, whichever is later, with sales to the school district exempt from sales tax under Utah Code 59-12-104. CCSD reserves the right to award to a single contractor and will issue a Purchase Order directly to the awarded contractor; no work may commence until receipt of a fully executed PO.
