RFP North Campus PA & Bell System

Jackson County Intermediate School District is requesting proposals for design, supply, and installation of a public address and bell system at its Central Campus under RFP issued July 27, 2026, with proposals due July 30, 2026. Addendum 1, posted July 27, 2026, modifies technical specifications and operational standards; bidders must acknowledge receipt of the addendum or face proposal rejection.

The scope encompasses a comprehensive PA and bell system meeting the district's communication and notification requirements across the campus facility. Vendors must submit detailed proposals addressing technical specifications, installation methodology, project timeline, and vendor qualifications. The contract will establish terms for system installation, testing, warranty provisions, and post-installation support.

Pricing shall be submitted as a fixed cost for the complete system, including all materials, labor, equipment, and installation services. The district may consider vendor experience with similar K–12 educational installations, technical capabilities, timeline feasibility, and warranty offerings alongside price in the evaluation process. Vendors should clearly itemize all costs and identify any optional components or phased implementation approaches that provide cost alternatives.

A pre-bid meeting or site visit is available for interested bidders to familiarize themselves with the facility and clarify project requirements. Proposals should address transition requirements from existing equipment and incumbent system information. Funding is provided through the district's capital budget or bond proceeds.
