About this opportunity
The University of West Georgia has issued an electronic Request for Information (eRFI) to solicit supplier information regarding athletic apparel, footwear, and accessories for its athletic programs. This procurement is an information-gathering initiative rather than a competitive solicitation and therefore does not satisfy competitive bidding requirements. The State Entity seeks suppliers capable of providing competition uniforms and game apparel, practice apparel, travel apparel, sideline apparel for players, coaches and administrators, competition and practice footwear, competition equipment such as footballs, basketballs, baseball/softball bats, balls, golf clubs, and soccer balls, protective gear, and accessories including gloves, undergarments, socks, bags, headbands, and wristbands. These products will support UWG's fourteen sports teams and staff, encompassing Football, Baseball, Basketball, Cross Country, Golf, Soccer, Softball, Volleyball, Tennis, Track & Field, and two cheerleading squads. The eRFI was posted on May 19, 2023, with a response deadline of June 21, 2023. While response to the eRFI is not mandatory and failure to respond will not prevent suppliers from participating in future competitive solicitations, interested suppliers are strongly encouraged to submit responses to ensure the State Entity has comprehensive information regarding available resources and methods.
The document provided does not specify any set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise restrictions, incumbent vendors, current contractors, existing technology infrastructure requirements, or award values and budget ranges for this procurement opportunity. Interested suppliers should consult the complete eRFI documentation for any additional requirements, qualifications, or restrictions that may apply to their participation in this information-gathering process and any subsequent competitive solicitations that may result from the eRFI responses.
