Description
Wayne State University is seeking vendor partners to create a Consolidated Procurement Program (CPP) for a broad suite of facility‑operating supplies. The program will shift inventory ownership to the vendor, requiring off‑site warehousing, field‑to‑door delivery, 24/7 emergency support, and managed‑satellite stock points. The university aims to consolidate an estimated $2 million annual spend across HVAC, janitorial, MRO, plumbing, electrical, hardware, door hardware, and water‑treatment chemical categories into a five‑year, vendor‑managed contract.
• Zero on‑campus inventory – vendor holds all stock and bills only for usage.
• Real‑time ordering and direct delivery to job sites, with 24/7 emergency response capability.
• Vendor‑managed satellite locations, disposal of obsolete inventory, and optional vending‑machine solutions.
• Requirement to provide pricing methodology, projected savings, and benchmarking visits to similar programs.
• Contract term 5 years (potential extensions up to 8 years) with a total spend baseline of roughly $10 million.
