Plumbing Supplies for Iowa School for the Deaf
Request for Bids
Description
Background Information:
The Iowa School for the Deaf (ISD) maintains a large, residential campus that includes academic buildings, dormitories, dining facilities, administrative offices, athletic spaces, and support infrastructure. To ensure the safety, functionality, and comfort of students, staff, and visitors, ISD performs most plumbing repairs, maintenance, and small-scale installations in house using its trained facilities personnel. Because these services are self-performed, the school requires ongoing access to a broad range of plumbing parts, materials, fixtures, and supplies to support routine maintenance, emergency repairs, and operational needs across campus. Securing a reliable vendor for plumbing supplies enables ISD to maintain uninterrupted operations, respond quickly to issues, and ensure that its facilities remain safe, accessible, and fully functional for the educational community it serves.
The Iowa School for the Deaf makes no guarantee of minimum or maximum purchase volumes under this contract. All items shall be ordered on an as-needed basis.
Through IMPACS and Attachment 2, Bidders must provide percentage discounts off the manufacturer's current published list price (MSRP) by specific item and product classification line.
Scope of Work:
The Vendor shall provide plumbing supplies, materials, components, tools, and related items on an as needed basis to support the Iowa School for the Deaf in-house plumbing maintenance and repair activities. The Iowa School for the Deaf performs its own plumbing work and requires a reliable source for timely pick-up or delivery of high-quality plumbing products.
Site Visit:
There will be no site visit for this solicitation.

Tab 1 (Core Items): Bidders must provide a firm contract percentage discount and the resulting Net Unit Price for every single item listed.
