Program Support Goods and Services for Instructional, Extracurricular, and Administrative Needs

Bastrop Independent School District (BISD) is soliciting proposals under RFP BA07-2025 to establish a pool of approved vendors for program support goods and services. The scope covers a wide array of instructional, extracurricular, and administrative needs, including UIL athletics, fine arts, drama, career and technical education, student organizations, and travel or transportation services. Proposals are accepted electronically via the Beacon Bid platform until May 29, 2026. Evaluation is based on quality, pricing, experience, responsiveness, delivery, and compliance, with the resulting contract term beginning upon Board approval and allowing for up to four one-year extensions. Qualified vendors must submit a comprehensive package including a vendor qualification form, a certification form, a representations and certifications form, and a minimum of three customer references for similar work. All shipments must be F.O.B. destination, freight prepaid, and clearly marked with the BISD purchase order number. Invoices must be emailed to the district's accounts payable department and are typically processed within 30 days. Vendors must comply with Texas state laws, including tax exemption status and conflict of interest disclosures, as well as federal regulations such as the Davis-Bacon Act and Buy America Act when federal funding is utilized.
