Vendors must use their ALJP bid as the basis for this quote. Pricing may be lower, but

GCSD must be able to demonstrate to USAC that the prices submitted clearly tie back to the

vendor’s ALJP bid award. Provide pricing good through June 30, 2026. No shipping costs may be

added at the time of purchase.

All prices submitted on the bid are to be “delivered prices” and shall be inclusive of all charges and

fees and shall not include any state or local tax. Tax exempt information is available upon

request. No additional fees and/or charges may be added during the length of the contract.

As with all E-rate RFPs, the district will, at its sole discretion, decide whether a

vendor/respondent award will result from this RFP. The issuance of this RFP does not obligate

the district to make an award.

Prospective vendor’s employees may be required to have a background check before entering

schools during attendance hours.

GCSD reserves the right to accept and/or deny any or all items on the proposal at the unit

price submitted.

Vendor must provide an inventoried excel spreadsheet of all equipment installed using the

attached format if installation is included in purchase. This must be emailed to the GCSD

Technology Coordinator upon completion of the project.

No invoice will be paid until all purchase order items have been delivered to the school district’s

satisfaction.

GCSD will require Vendor to file a 474 (SPI).

GCSD reserves the right to cancel the contract with the vendor for nonperformance. All items must

be new, unused, current technology, not end-of-life, close out, or refurbished products.

Vendor must be an established business for a minimum of at least 5 continuous years and must

have handled orders for the same or similar products.

Vendor must be in good standing with the FCC and provide a current Service Provider

Identification Number (SPIN) with USAC Schools and Libraries (E-rate) throughout the term of

any agreement. Please indicate SPIN on all documentation. Vendors who do not currently have

green light status will not be considered. The loss of green light status with the FCC shall render

any contracts entered into with the vendor to be immediately null and void.

The vendor must be able to complete installation according to specified deadlines.
