The Mesquite Independent School District is soliciting sealed proposals for a turnkey procurement, delivery, and installation of a custom-fabricated Walk-In Cooler/Freezer Combo at Cannaday Elementary School, with the project requiring all labor, materials, equipment, delivery, and installation to be included in a single, comprehensive bid. The unit must consist of two refrigerated compartments—a holding freezer measuring 8' 2" x 11' 0" x 8' 6" and a holding cooler measuring 7' 10" x 11' 0" x 8' 6"—arranged within an overall footprint of 16' 0" x 11' 0", manufactured by ThermoKool or an equivalent approved by the District. Proposals are due no later than 2:00 PM CDT on June 4, 2026, and must be submitted exclusively through the IonWave portal, with manual submissions strongly discouraged and subject to strict formatting requirements, including sealed envelopes and electronic flash drives. Attendance at the mandatory site visit on May 28, 2026, is non-negotiable; failure to attend renders a proposal non-responsive and ineligible for award. All bidders must submit a comprehensive set of attachments including a completed 2024 W9 form, Conflict of Interest Questionnaire, Form 1295 Certificate of Interested Parties, federal and state certifications specific to Child Nutrition programs, and current insurance documentation naming MISD as a co-insured for property and liability coverage. Financial stability must be demonstrated through a credit report and two years of financial records, and vendors must affirm compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act by disclosing any regulatory penalties from the past year. The evaluation is point-based with a maximum of 100 points, prioritizing cost (40 points total—30 for material cost and 10 for installation price), followed by quality of goods and services (25 points, including delivery timelines and a five-year service warranty), ability to meet district needs, bidder responsibility, and reputation verified through reference surveys. Contractors must adhere to strict school safety and conduct policies, including background checks for employees under SB 9, prohibition of firearms and alcohol on campus, and continuous on-site supervision by a competent official. The awarded vendor must coordinate with MISD Kitchen Maintenance, provide two days’ notice before demolition or installation, remove and haul away existing equipment, deliver on-site staff training, and ensure the unit
