6 1.0 SCOPE OF SOLICITATION
Alief Independent School District is seeking qualified companies and/or individuals for goods and services
pertaining to Fundraising and/or Food Vendors/Catering. Proposers may be placed on the District’s
Campus/Organization Funded Activities and Services vendor list. The District may execute contracts with vendors
on the list on an as-needed (per project) or annual basis depending on the type of service required. Placement on
the list does not obligate the District to contract for any services. The intent of this request is to establish a list of
pre-approved companies and/or individuals that are able to provide services to the District. Services include but are
not limited to Fundraising, Food Vendors/Catering for campus based activities or events and other services deemed
appropriate for this request. Proposers who contract with the District for services will be asked to sign the District’s
standard Contracted Services Agreement (CSA), which is available for review upon request. This agreement will
contain the scope of engagement outline of the specific duties and responsibilities of a proposer's individual project
with the District. The District reserves the right to determine if a specialized service is acceptable. If the service is
deemed unacceptable, no award will be made to the respondent. THIS SOLICITATION DOES NOT COVER
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AS DEFINED BY TEXAS EDUCATION CODE SECTION 44.031(f) and TEXAS
GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 2254
2.0 CONTRACT FOR PURCHASE
This agreement is subject to the appropriation of funds by the District in its budget adopted for any fiscal year for
the specific purpose of making payments pursuant to this agreement. The obligation of the District in any fiscal
year for which this Agreement is in effect shall constitute a current expense of the District for that fiscal year only. In
the event of non-appropriation of funds in any fiscal year to make payments pursuant to the Agreement, the
Agreement may be terminated. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in these terms and conditions,
upon the District's acceptance of a proposal, the vendor and the District will have entered into a binding contract.
The contract is enforceable from the time of acceptance without regard to the time of notification to the vendor of
acceptance. Purchases will be put into effect in the form of a purchase order after proposals have been awarded.
Alief ISD will not be responsible for any goods delivered, or services performed without a purchase order, signed by
an authorized representative of the Alief ISD Purchasing Department.
3.0 REQUESTS FOR EXPLANATION/INTERPRETATION
If a person contemplating submitting an offer for the proposed contract is in doubt as to the true meaning of any
part of the proposal documents, the vendor may submit a written request for an interpretation thereof to the Buyer
identified in this solicitation within seven (7) business days prior to the opening date in order to allow a response to
all Bidders before the submission of a bid. Any interpretations, corrections, approvals, supplemental instructions or
changes to the Proposal Documents will be made by written Addenda. Sole issuing authority of addenda shall be
vested in the Alief ISD Purchasing Office. All interpretation or clarifications considered necessary by and approved
by the District in response to proposer's written request will be issued by such addenda. Verbal requests for
clarification or additional information may not be addressed and will not be binding.
Addenda are to be incorporated as part of the proposal and shall become part of the Contract Documents. It is the
vendor’s responsibility to monitor the Alief ISD web-site for addendums.
The District is not responsible for rejection of proposals due to failure to receive and incorporate addendums into
proposals, and reserves the right to waive all formalities, to be the sole judge of quality and suitability, and may
reject any or all items.
4.0 ITEM SPECIFICATIONS, PROPOSING ALTERNATES, AND SAMPLES
The District does not typically restrict items procured to a given manufacturer brand, make, model, provider, or
other such limitation, however, if such information is provided, it is because these products/services have certain
features that are desirable. The use of a given manufacturer's specifications by the District is to be considered a
representation of the minimum standard of quality and to aid in identifying the type of item requested. The District
makes every effort to encourage the acquisition of recycled materials to the maximum extent practicable and gives
