About this opportunity
The Davis School District (DSD) Purchasing Department is seeking to procure the International Baccalaureate (IB) DEEP Diploma Program through a sole-source procurement process for its career-related study program targeting students aged 16-19. The procurement is specifically for a comprehensive educational curriculum framework that includes unique assessments and specialized professional development for teachers. The district is pursuing this procurement under the Utah Procurement Code, with a proposed 5-year contract term for their Distinguished Education Enrichment Program (DEEP). The solicitation was published on October 21, 2025, with a response deadline of October 28, 2025. The district is specifically seeking the IB program's unique curricular approach, which they have determined to be unavailable through standard competitive procurement channels. Potential vendors are invited to challenge the sole-source designation by providing documentation of comparable programs, alternative sources, or cost comparisons during the public notice period.
The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations beyond the unique sole-source nature of the solicitation. The estimated contract value is approximately $100,000, with International Baccalaureate being the recommended sole vendor. The contract will require comprehensive compliance with the Davis School District's standard contract terms and conditions, which include mandatory use of the Status Verification System (E-Verify), maintaining a minimum of $1,000,000 in insurance coverage, and providing a one-year product warranty. Contractors must adhere to strict ethical standards, including avoiding conflicts of interest and complying with public contract boycott limitations. The district has already received superintendent approval for this specific program and will proceed with awarding the contract to International Baccalaureate if no valid challenges are received during the public notice period.
Opportunity text
The DSD Purchasing Department is publishing this notice pursuant to the Utah Procurement Code. The requesting party submitted this form to the Purchasing Department claiming that it intends to award a contract without competition if it is determined by the Purchasing Department, in writing, that: • there is only one source for the procurement item; • transitional costs are a significant consideration in selecting a procurement item; or • the award of a contract is under circumstances, described in rules adopted by the applicable rulemaking authority, that make awarding the contract through a standard procurement process impractical and not in the best interest of the procurement unit.
