Box Elder School District (BESD) is seeking a comprehensive World Language Chinese 1-2 Curriculum for grades 6-12 through a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) process. The solicitation (BESD-007-11012025) requires an evidence-based curriculum with online components, lesson plans, and resources supporting social and emotional learning and student skill development. The procurement anticipates approximately 1,200 teacher, administrator, and staff licenses, serving around 12,000 students across the district. Proposals will be evaluated through a multi-stage process including a technical proposal review (105 points), potential presentations (75 points), and a cost proposal evaluation (30 points). Key deadlines include questions due by 11/14/2025 at 10:00 AM to Jeff Morris, with responses provided by 11/17/2025, and final proposals due by 11/21/2025 at 3:30 PM to Yvette Gunn at the Box Elder School District office in Brigham City, Utah. The contract will be awarded to the highest-scoring, responsive, and responsible offeror, with an initial three-year term and potential yearly renewals up to five years total, beginning in Spring 2025.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned in the procurement documents. The RFP requires vendors to submit pricing based on per-license/user costs, including implementation, professional services, training, and annual recurring costs for up to five years. Pricing structure must cover comprehensive curriculum access for teachers and students, with specific requirements for online components and supporting resources. While no incumbent vendor was identified, the solicitation includes standard state procurement provisions covering confidentiality, intellectual property rights, insurance requirements, and performance standards. Contractors must maintain workers' compensation, commercial general liability, and commercial automobile liability insurance, with specific coverage minimums. The total potential contract value could range significantly depending on per-license pricing, but with 12,000 potential student users and additional staff licenses, the procurement represents a substantial opportunity for curriculum providers specializing in World Language Chinese educational resources.
