About this opportunity
Savannah-Chatham County Public School System is requesting proposals for full-service library media books, non-print resources, and support services for approximately 51 media centers under RFP 22-19, with proposals due December 7, 2021 at 2:00 p.m. (Addendum 1 extended the original November 30 deadline). No pre-proposal conference is required. Georgia's E-Verify requirements and good-faith efforts to utilize local, minority, and women-owned business enterprises apply; one of seven responding vendors, Follett School Solutions LLC, was LMWBE-certified.
The scope includes hardback books, pre-bound books, paperback books, non-print materials (audiobooks, CDs, DVDs, Blu-ray discs), and eBooks, with full US MARC cataloging records and item processing provided by the vendor. Vendors must guarantee a percentage discount for orders exceeding $5,000, provide free shipping and handling, and comply with SCCPSS cataloging specifications including sample barcode labels.
The contract is effective for one year with options to renew for up to two additional one-year terms at the district's discretion. No specific minimum orders or guaranteed volumes are provided; successful vendors will be listed as approved suppliers in the SCCPSS Annual Bid Contract Book, but no specific orders are guaranteed.
Evaluation allocates 35 points for experience and capabilities, 25 points for project understanding and methodology, 10 points for other relevant facts, and 30 points for fee proposals (lowest-cost proposal receives maximum points). Vendors must demonstrate at least three years of experience serving public school districts and maintain Commercial General Liability ($1,000,000 per occurrence, $2,000,000 aggregate), Commercial Automobile Liability ($1,000,000), and Umbrella Liability ($1,000,000) coverage. Payment is due within forty days of invoice. Liquidated damages of $100 per day apply for unexcused service delays. The district may terminate for convenience with fourteen days' notice or immediately for cause.
