Overview



Summary

Mesa Public Schools is seeking proposals from qualified vendors to establish a comprehensive sponsorship and rebate program in support of our district wide athletic programs.

Proposals must clearly outline the vendor’s methodology for tracking purchases, validating eligibility, and reporting rebate activity.

Types of Partnerships Requested

These discounts must apply to sports uniforms, equipment, apparel, name brands, and related items. It is understood that the MSRP may change annually, but the committed percentage discount must remain unchanged throughout this potential five-year contract.
