ITS-June-2026-Jar_Battery_kits

Barrow County School District in Winder, Georgia is requesting proposals for Jar Systems USB-C Active Charge Power Bank Kits, with proposals due June 15, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. local time.

The district seeks 125 kits containing 500 total batteries, with each kit supplied with USB-C to USB-C cables. The preferred option is the yellow model (PBYLUSBC); an alternate black model (PBUSBC) is available at the same anticipated quantity if the preferred option is unavailable or more expensive. All components must be new and sold through authorized manufacturer channels — grey market responses and manufacturer substitutions are not permitted. Proof of authorization to sell the manufacturer's products may be required before proposals are accepted, and failure to provide such proof may result in rejection.

Proposals must be emailed to itsbids@barrow.k12.ga.us and addressed to John St. Clair. Vendors must receive email confirmation of receipt from jstclair@barrow.k12.ga.us to ensure proposal acceptance. The district reserves the right to reject any and all bids, waive bidding informalities, and accept bids on an all, some, or none basis within available funds at its discretion.

Proposals remain valid for 90 days following bid opening. Vendors must submit a completed Vendor Response Page as the first page of their proposal, followed by detailed pricing breakdowns beginning on the second page. Pricing should specify the per-kit cost for both the preferred and alternate options, along with any additional costs including shipping. Vendors must indicate anticipated shipping times, disclose any limits on purchasable quantities, and describe any anticipated manufacturing or delivery delays.
