Sole Source Procurement for HMH Into Reading Decodable Library

The Spartanburg School District 2 intends to enter into a sole source contract with Houghton Mifflin Harcourt for the HMH Into Reading Decodable Library. The district previously adopted the HMH Into Reading program as its core English Language Arts instructional resource and is now seeking to procure the Decodable Library, a proprietary component that aligns with and supports the program's instructional design. The district believes that no other vendor can provide materials that meet its needs without causing instructional misalignment or requiring substantial modification to the existing program. • The contract amount is $105,813.54. • The district is seeking a sole source procurement due to the exclusive compatibility of the Decodable Library with the adopted curriculum. • Vendors who believe they can provide an equivalent product may submit documentation for consideration. • The district's justification for a sole source procurement may be viewed or obtained by contacting Leslie M Duthie.
