Type of Addition: Addendum 1 - Answer Questions from Pre-Bid Meeting
Overview:
1. The question was when will the Board of Education make the official decision?
After the bid closing date of April 6th, 2021 at 2:00 p.m., the samples and prices will be evaluated. A recommendation will be presented to the Walker County Board of Education at their regularly scheduled board meeting on April 19th, 2021. Purchase Orders will be requested on April 20th, 2021 and will go out to the winning vendors as quickly as we can get the purchase orders approved. The goal is on April 20th by close of business.
2. The question was regarding how many of the universal toilet paper dispensers (item# CU-121) and universal paper towel dispensers (item# CU-120) that our school system generally uses in a year as it relates to providing the dispensers at no cost to the vendor who wins the bid for the toilet paper and paper towels. These are our historical numbers for each item based on usage of each beginning in 2013 until now.
CU-120 Jumbo Roll Paper Towels – The average use is 56 units with the highest being 74 and the lowest being 20. I removed the number from 2015 because we opened a new school that year. We currently have 10 in stock.
CU-121 Jumbo Roll Toilet Paper – The average use is 20 units with the highest being 43 and the lowest being 7. I removed the number from 2015 because we opened a new school that year. We currently have 81 in stock.
