Athletic/ P.E. Equipment and Uniforms

Alief Independent School District (Alief ISD) has issued a continuous solicitation under Solicitation Number 2337.3 for Athletic and Physical Education (P.E.) Equipment and Uniforms, reflecting an ongoing need to procure these items through an indefinite-delivery arrangement. The solicitation was posted on May 12, 2023, and will remain open for vendor proposals until July 31, 2028. Submissions are evaluated on a rolling basis during this period, with vendors encouraged to submit early. Questions regarding the solicitation can be submitted electronically until July 24, 2028, with the initial contract award anticipated at the Alief ISD school board meeting in July 2023. The contract primarily serves the Texas area under the NAICS code 315210, related to manufacturing of cut and sew apparel, which aligns with the purchase of athletic uniforms and equipment. The contract operation is managed by Buyer II Rachael Alspaugh, with contact provided for proposal and inquiry submissions. While specific Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses or detailed special contract clauses typical in federal contracts are not incorporated in the provided materials, the solicitation features state and local governmental procurement compliance. The contract requires contractors to certify valid licensing, including New Mexico Contractor License and Public Works Registration, and to adhere to equal employment opportunity standards and safety regulations, including drug-free workplace policies and OSHA compliance. The solicitation does not include formalized evaluation factors or contract values, signifying a procurement structured for multiple awards over time rather than a lump sum contract. Vendors are required to provide subcontractor lists, bid bonds, and certifications relevant to state regulations. The absence of fixed pricing or firm quantities indicates flexibility in orders and delivery aligned with the district’s evolving athletic and P.E. supply requirements over several years.
