Academic Resources

Ysleta Independent School District is soliciting proposals for Academic Resources under solicitation number 226011RFP Informal. This is an incremental award process where multiple vendors may be selected based on best value, and awards are made throughout the open solicitation period upon acceptance of a proposal. The solicitation was posted on March 26, 2026, with a final response deadline of May 31, 2030. Because the district cannot predict specific instructional or professional development needs in advance, the contract serves as a general framework allowing vendors to offer products and services via catalogs or product listings, with pricing based on a primary discount from a catalog or industry-published price list. Vendors must submit proposals electronically via the district's E-Bid system, ensuring all documents are signed to avoid disqualification. Key compliance requirements include providing a Conflict of Interest Questionnaire and adhering to Texas Government Code regarding the boycott of energy companies and firearm entity nondiscrimination for applicable for-profit entities. Awardees must provide insurance certificates with specific liability limits, including 1 million dollars for bodily injury and 2 million dollars aggregate for property damage. The contract is contingent upon the appropriation of funding by the Board of Trustees, and the district reserves the right to automatically extend the contract at its own discretion. All goods are subject to inspection and testing, and vendors are required to register for payments via Electronic Funds Transfer.
