All vendors are encouraged to participate even if vendors are the sole source providers.
This proposal is being issued in accordance with Title 2 of the Code of Federal Regulations (2CFR) Part 200 requirements to procure vendors who provide goods or services purchased by Dallas ISD using federal dollars. This proposal may be used with local, state, federal, and grant-funded programs.
