Spanish Government Bids & RFPs

The bid opening date and time is Tuesday, June 9, 2026, at 10:00 AM local time. All bids shall be received by the district no later than this date and time.

Payment will be made no later than forty-five (45) days after receipt of a properly documented invoice submitted to Dearborn Public Schools, Accounts Payable.

The bid notice does not explicitly state a warranty period for the services provided. However, it mentions that the warranty period shall start upon product acceptance, which is relevant if products are part of the service.

The district intends to award a firm fixed price contract to the lowest responsive responsible bidder whose bid most closely meets the requirements as specified in the solicitation.

Bidders are required to provide business information, including taxpayer ID, DUNS numbers, annual gross sales for the last five years, number of employees, and references from three customers, preferably school districts or other public entities.

The bid notice mentions that failure to comply with nondiscrimination guidelines may constitute grounds for the district to revoke and terminate the contract. It also states that if the contractor fails to perform, the district may charge the contractor for subsequent work performed.

The district may, at its sole discretion, request site visits with selected bidders under active consideration, but is not obligated to provide all bidders with such an opportunity.

The bid notice does not require sample submissions for this informational campaign support service.

Any bidder or offeror who is aggrieved may protest to the Executive Director of Business Services and Operations within five (5) business days after such aggrieved proposer knows, or should have known, of the facts giving rise thereto.

Risks for disqualification include submitting late bids, failing to acknowledge addenda, communicating with district staff outside of the purchasing officer, misrepresenting information in the bid, failing to comply with conflict of interest disclosures, and failing to complete and sign required forms.

The deadline for receipt of proposals is July 8, 2026, at 1:00 PM EDT.

The State of Delaware will require a payment schedule based on defined and measurable milestones. Payments for services will not be made in advance of work performed. The state may require holdback of contract monies until acceptable performance is demonstrated, as much as 25%.

The vendor will provide a warranty that the deliverables provided pursuant to the contract will function as designed for a period of no less than one year from the date of system acceptance. The warranty shall require the vendor to correct, at its own expense, the setup, configuration, customizations or modifications so that it functions according to the states requirements.

The contract shall be awarded to the vendor whose proposal is most advantageous, taking into consideration the evaluation factors set forth in the RFP. The state of Delaware is not obligated to award the contract to the vendor who submits the lowest bid or the vendor who receives the highest total point score.

General evaluation requirements include the qualifications of the vendor (administrative oversight, past experience, quality assurance program details, available resources), methodology proposed (services fit needs, logical sequence, adequacy of workplan, builds on existing work), proposed budget compared to required activities, responses to scope of services, and evaluation of proposed costs as they relate to proposed service delivery.

The State of Delaware may include in the final contract liquidated damages provisions for nonperformance.

A prebid meeting has not been established for this request for proposal.

Protests based on any omission or error, or on the content of the solicitation, will be disallowed if these faults have not been brought to the attention of the designated contact, in writing, at least ten calendar days prior to the time set for opening of the proposals.

Failure to respond to any mandatory requirement may cause the disqualification of your proposal. Vendors directly contacting state of Delaware employees risk elimination of their proposal from further consideration.
