Rectangle Folding Tables

Parkway School District in Missouri is seeking competitive bids for a one-time procurement of 75 plastic blow molded grey rectangle folding tables, specifically sized 30in x 72in (MFG #: BT-3072). The district will receive proposals through its Bonfire online bidding platform, with bids due by September 2, 2025, at 3:00 PM CST. The bid (Proposal Number 26-36) requires vendors to submit comprehensive proposal packages including a company W-9, vendor signature page, federal work authorization form, references, specification sheets/manuals, an affidavit of non-collusion, and a completed pricing sheet. The district will evaluate proposals based on a "lowest and best" criteria, considering factors such as item specification compliance, vendor supply capability, inventory maintenance, prior district experience, and financial strength. Tentative vendor award notification is scheduled for September 9, 2025, with tables to be delivered F.O.B. destination to the Parkway School District Receiving Warehouse in Chesterfield, Missouri.

The procurement opportunity appears open to all qualified vendors, with no specific set-aside designations noted. However, the district does encourage purchasing products manufactured, assembled, or produced in the United States, with a preference for Missouri-based commodities when quality, price, and delivery are comparable. Vendors must comply with federal work authorization program requirements, specifically Missouri Revised Statute 285.530, which mandates enrollment in the E-Verify program for businesses awarded contracts exceeding $5,000. Based on the addendum, pricing for the tables varies significantly across 17 potential vendors, ranging from $29.99 to $225.32 per unit, with total project costs between $2,249.25 and $16,899.00. The lowest-priced bid comes from Angels Time LLC at $29.99 per unit with a 10-day lead time. The district reserves the right to award the bid based on the lowest or best proposal and may order similar items under the same terms and conditions.
