Warehouse Stock

Laramie County School District Number One is seeking vendors for an open-end annual warehouse stock contract to supply central warehouse materials including office and art supplies such as xerographic paper, index paper, pens, pencils, markers, tape, binding combs, glue, and construction paper. The procurement is an Invitation for Bid (IFB) No. 26CB2010 with a contract period from February 1, 2026, to January 31, 2027, and potential two-year renewal options. The bid opening is scheduled for November 20, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. at 2810 House Avenue in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Evaluation criteria will focus on meeting specified product requirements, with the district reserving the right to award items individually or in groups based on their best interests. Vendors must provide pricing for standard manufacturer packaging quantities, with FOB delivery to Cheyenne, and pricing limited to two decimal places. Key requirements include compliance with safety regulations, provision of Safety Data Sheets, and adherence to state and federal compliance standards including ADA requirements.

The procurement allows for cooperative purchasing, enabling other school districts, governmental agencies, and non-profit organizations to potentially utilize the contract pricing. Wyoming resident bidders will receive preferential treatment, with a 5% advantage for commodity purchases. Vendors must be prepared to provide comprehensive documentation, including W-9 forms and certificates of insurance. The district emphasizes ethical purchasing practices and prohibits conflicts of interest among employees. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the open-end contract structure suggests flexibility in ordering and potential significant procurement volume. Vendors must demonstrate the ability to provide timely warehouse stock items, meet detailed specifications, and comply with extensive regulatory requirements. The cooperative purchasing option and potential multi-year contract suggest a substantial opportunity for qualified suppliers to establish a long-term relationship with the school district.
