Description

The Newark Board of Education is seeking a vendor to supply FDA‑compliant bottled spring water (5‑gal bottles) and water‑cooler units to approximately 77 school locations for a two‑year period. The contractor must deliver roughly 3,500 bottles each month, adhere to strict delivery windows (8 a.m.–3 p.m., inside the building), provide delivery receipts, and retrieve all empty bottles at contract close‑out at no cost to the district. The contract is firm‑fixed‑price, unrestricted, and requires the vendor to hold specific insurance and regulatory certifications. • Supply and deliver ~3,500 five‑gallon bottles of spring water per month to 77 schools. • Provide both cold‑only and hot/cold water‑cooler units with full technical specifications. • Meet all FDA, New Jersey health‑department, NSF, and insurance requirements; deliver inside the facilities between 8 a.m.–3 p.m. and retrieve empties within 14 days after contract end.

Budget estimate

$400,000 – $800,000

Assuming an average price of $5‑$7 per 5‑gal bottle, 3,500 bottles/month translates to $17,500‑$24,500 monthly. Over the 24‑month contract this yields $420,000‑$588,000. Adding water‑cooler units and possible discounts or premium services could raise the total toward $800,000. Therefore a reasonable expected contract value ranges from roughly $400 k to $800 k.
