About this opportunity
Salt Lake City School District is requesting Statements of Qualifications from vendors to establish an approved vendor list for fundraising activities under Utah Code 13-22, with SOQs due October 6, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. and the Q&A period closing September 29, 2026.
Vendors must provide food items or other products for resale through student fundraising activities at various schools within the district. All fundraising activities are subject to strict limitations: no tobacco or alcohol promotion, no door-to-door student solicitation, no sales quotas, no pre-purchasing requirements for elementary schools, and no lotteries or raffles. Vendors must comply with Utah's Charitable Solicitations Act, maintain confidentiality of personally identifiable student information under FERPA and the Student Privacy and Data Protection Act, and accept SLCSD terms and conditions that take precedence over vendor-supplied terms. Vendors must submit W-9 forms, valid business licenses, and proof of a Utah Department of Commerce fundraiser permit, commercial co-venturer letter, or letter of exemption; SOQs lacking this documentation will be rejected as non-responsive.
Initial approved vendor contracts run eighteen months with automatic expiration on June 30. Vendors must specify either a percentage or flat fee per item sold, with all proceeds going exclusively to the district. Evaluation uses a 500-point rubric across four weighted criteria: Vendor Qualifications and Experience (40%), Complaints and Problem Resolution (30%), Fundraiser Details (20%), and References (10%), with a minimum threshold of 375 points required for approval. SLCSD reserves the right to remove vendors from the approved list at any time for failure to meet professional standards. All submissions must be made electronically through Bonfire/U3P; no bidders' conferences or site visits are scheduled. Questions must be submitted in writing via Bonfire/U3P by September 29, 2026.
