This contract is a rapid‑procurement “quick‑proposal” for personal protective equipment (PPE) needed by Williamson County Schools to safely reopen during the COVID‑19 pandemic. The agency solicited quotations for a broad list of items—including medical‑grade nitrile gloves, various mask types, face shields, non‑contact infrared thermometers, disinfectant wipes, and CDC‑compliant hand sanitizers—and awarded multiple vendors to cover distinct product categories. The selection emphasized competitive pricing, product quality, local support, and the ability to fulfill orders quickly, rather than a single lowest‑price award. The awards were finalized on June 5 2020, and the contract terms specify unit‑price pricing with lead‑times ranging from immediate stock to up to 90 days.
