Roseburg Schools Central Warehouse Supplies

Douglas County School District No. 4, also known as Roseburg Public Schools, is seeking competitive bids for various supply categories to be stocked in its central warehouse for distribution to schools throughout the year. The procurement encompasses five distinct bid packages: office and art supplies, health and first aid supplies, physical education equipment, construction and butcher paper, and colored index paper. Each category includes detailed line items with specific quantities, brand requirements, and unit pricing expectations. The invitation to bid is open to vendors who can provide one or multiple product categories, with a comprehensive submission deadline of April 2, 2024, at 2:00 PM. Evaluation criteria will focus on lowest responsive and responsible bidder(s), with the district reserving the right to reject any non-compliant bids or award contracts in full or partial increments. The district will consider factors such as pricing, compliance with specifications, delivery capabilities, and overall value to the school system.

The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged business enterprises or minority-owned businesses. There are no incumbent vendors explicitly mentioned in the documentation. The bid documents indicate a reciprocal preference for resident bidders and standard non-discrimination requirements. While specific budget ranges are not disclosed, the solicitation covers multiple product categories suggesting a potentially significant annual procurement value. Payment terms are specified as net 30 days, with the option for contractors to assess overdue account charges after 45 days. The contract will be F.O.B. Roseburg, Oregon, and successful vendors must comply with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations. Pricing must remain firm for a minimum of 30-365 days depending on the specific bid category, providing stability for both the district and potential vendors.
