RFQ-HVS-270000000019-2 | Football Equipment, Reconditioning Svcs

Huron Valley Schools, in partnership with the CoPro+ cooperative purchasing program, is soliciting proposals for a statewide cooperative contract to provide football equipment and reconditioning services. The scope of work encompasses five primary areas: football helmet reconditioning and recertification, faceguard inspection and replacement, shoulder-pad repair, the supply of new equipment and accessories, and other athletic equipment. All reconditioning and recertification must strictly adhere to current NOCSAE standards, manufacturer instructions, and service bulletins. The awarded vendor is required to perform annual inspections by December 1 of each school year and maintain detailed item-level inventory records, including the tracking of personally owned helmets separately from district-owned assets. The selection process is based on a best-value determination using a 100-point scale, weighted across the statement of work (40 points), pricing (30 points), references (20 points), and company profile (10 points). To be eligible, vendors must maintain a current license agreement with NOCSAE for all facilities performing recertification and must be in good standing within the State of Michigan. Key deliverables include a comprehensive reconditioning process involving disassembly, sanitizing, and quality-control inspection, with a requirement that finished shells be free of transportation damage. Proposals must be submitted by November 13, 2026, and include a pricing schedule quoted F.O.B. destination, freight prepaid.
