About this opportunity

The School Board of Marion County, Florida is seeking a term contract for laser toner cartridges to be used by schools and departments throughout the district. The procurement aims to secure firm pricing for both new original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and remanufactured toner cartridges from manufacturers like HP, Xerox, and Lexmark. Vendors must provide a comprehensive range of cartridges across multiple models and colors, with specific requirements for quality, packaging, and labeling. A mandatory component of the contract is a spent cartridge recycling program, demonstrating the district's commitment to environmental responsibility. The bid (Bid #4113GM) requires vendors to offer a one-year warranty, provide equipment protection coverage, and submit detailed documentation including proposal forms, qualification statements, and drug-free workplace certifications. The solicitation was posted on December 20, 2024, with questions due by January 14, 2025, and bid responses required electronically through VendorLink by January 17, 2025, at 2:00 PM. The initial contract term will run from March 1, 2025, through February 28, 2026, with potential for up to three additional one-year renewals.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The bid tabulation reveals multiple vendors competed for the contract, including Central Jersey Office Equipment, CVR Computer Supplies, and Coast to Coast Computer Products, with CVR Computer Supplies ultimately being awarded the contract. The total budgeted resources for this procurement are $250,000.00, covering approximately 259 different toner cartridge items. Vendors were evaluated based on pricing, compliance with technical specifications, and ability to meet comprehensive requirements including a robust recycling program. The School Board reserved the right to award the contract by item, by group, or on an all-or-none basis, with potential for primary and secondary suppliers. Bidders were required to comply with various federal and state regulations, including Florida preference policies, specific insurance requirements, and background screening standards. The contract includes provisions for electronic submission only, with no physical delivery of bid documents permitted to the MCPS Purchasing Department.
