Youth Basketball Jerseys

The City of Murfreesboro, located in Rutherford County, Tennessee, is conducting a Request for Quotation (RFQ-19-2022) for youth basketball jerseys. The procurement seeks to acquire a minimum of 1,150 reversible basketball jerseys constructed from 100% polyester micro fabric with moisture-wicking properties, ranging in sizes from youth extra-small to adult triple extra-large, along with 100 head coach shirts. Specific requirements include team names and numbers printed on both color and white reverse sides, with precise design specifications for front and back printing. The jerseys must meet stringent quality standards, with vendors required to provide defect-free products and a 30-day replacement guarantee. Quotation responses were due by December 3, 2021, at 2:00 p.m. CST, with an order placement deadline of December 10, 2021, and a mandatory delivery date of January 10, 2022, to the McFadden Community Center. Vendors must include comprehensive pricing that covers all costs, including packaging, labeling, and printing, with each team package individually labeled with team name, shirt color, and sizes.

The RFQ does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The procurement appears open to standard commercial vendors capable of meeting the technical and quality specifications. Pricing requirements mandate that all potential charges be included in the unit pricing, with no hidden fees, and the City of Murfreesboro notes it is not subject to sales tax. While no incumbent vendors are identified, the detailed specifications suggest a structured procurement process with clear expectations for jersey quality, design, and delivery. The total procurement value is not explicitly stated, but can be estimated based on the minimum requirement of 1,150 jerseys plus 100 head coach shirts. Vendors must be prepared to provide a comprehensive solution that meets the city's precise requirements for youth basketball jersey production, including complex printing specifications and individual team packaging.
