Public procurement context

University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg, Mississippi is using this solicitation to acquire the goods, services, or construction work described above. Sole-source solicitations are issued when only one vendor can provide the required item or service; competing vendors may still submit objections during the public comment window. Bidders responding to a public solicitation in Mississippi are generally expected to provide proof of liability insurance and workers' compensation, hold any applicable trade or professional license, and post performance and payment bonds for contracts above the agency's threshold.

Contracts of this type are usually awarded under the issuing agency's published procurement rules, with bid bond, performance bond, and reference requirements set in the solicitation documents. PublicBidSearch indexes this solicitation alongside other open bids in Mississippi so contractors and vendors can compare active opportunities by category, agency, or location without monitoring each procurement portal individually.

How to respond to this opportunity

To submit a bid for this solicitation, review the full solicitation documents for University of Southern Mississippi's exact scope of work, submission format, and any mandatory pre-bid meeting or site visit. Responses must be received before the July 17, 2026 deadline — public agencies routinely reject late submissions regardless of cause. Confirm how the agency accepts responses — through an electronic procurement portal, as a sealed hard-copy bid, or by email — because the required method varies by agency and a non-conforming submission can be disqualified. Vendors that have not previously contracted with University of Southern Mississippi should confirm whether registration on the agency's vendor system is required to be eligible for award.
