Fayette County Public Schools issued Request for Quote (RFQ) 26-026-075 on April 1, 2026, to procure brand-specific floor stripper and wax products for delivery to 28 school locations throughout the county. The procurement seeks firm pricing for two specific products: EcoLab FaciliPro Bright Blast Low Odor Floor Stripper (735 pails required) and EcoLab FaciliPro Gemini Pro 25 floor wax (1,495 pails required), with pricing submitted on a per-pail basis. All deliveries must be made via tailgate or inside delivery to locations without loading docks, with freight on a FOB destination basis and prepaid freight allowed. Respondents must specify their estimated delivery timeframe from purchase order issuance and submit required documentation including a Solicitation Response Form, Reference Form, Cost Proposal, and completed W-9 Form. The evaluation will not be based on lowest price alone; instead, factors including warranty, service guarantees, past performance, cost of ownership analysis, and delivery schedules will be considered. Questions regarding the solicitation were due by 9:00 AM Eastern Time on Tuesday, April 7, 2026, with responses due by 9:00 AM Eastern Time on Monday, April 13, 2026. The contract term extends from the award issuance date through December 31, 2026, with options to renew for two additional one-year terms (through December 31, 2027, and December 31, 2028).

Brady Plus, located at 2400 Sullivan Road, College Park, Georgia 30337, was selected as the awarded respondent in the Notice of Intent to Award, with the contract term running from April 17, 2026, through December 31, 2026. The procurement permits cooperative purchasing, allowing other Fayette County government entities and local municipalities to purchase from the awarded contract at the same quoted prices. Price increases are restricted to no more than 10% annually and must be justified by documented product cost increases, with a minimum 30-day written notice required. No back orders are permitted without specific authorization, and failure to deliver per specifications may result in default. Harold Sullivan, Facilities Supervisor, will serve as the primary contact for project coordination, ordering, and delivery matters, while Jamie Marrero, Purchasing Associate, will address contract and solicitation questions. Final approval may be required from the Superintendent or the Board of Education depending on the dollar value of the solicitation, as mandated by district policy, though specific pricing information and award values are not disclosed in the available documentation.
