Opportunity Overview
The Mississippi Department of Education (MDE), Office of Safe and Orderly Schools, is soliciting bids for Modular Classroom Removal Services. The controlling Mississippi procurement record identifies Smart Number 1201-27-R-IFBD-00001 and RFx 3160008189 and shows the solicitation as open.
Deadline
October 2, 2026 at 10:00 AM. The state procurement portal publishes the date and time but does not label a time zone on the searchable record. A public reproduction of the MDE IFB states 10:00 AM CST; Atlas preserves that published label rather than silently converting it.
Scope
Publicly reproduced IFB material describes removal and disposal of four modular classroom units associated with Hattiesburg High School, Natchez High School, Yazoo City High School and Amanda Elzy High School. The contractor is expected to prepare units for transport, tow or haul them from the sites, address route and clearance conditions, and provide evidence of proper disposal. The units are described as approximately 60 feet long, 10 feet wide and 12.5 feet high.
Contract Period
The reproduced IFB timetable identifies an anticipated term beginning when all parties sign and ending June 30, 2027, subject to required approvals.
Questions and Submission
The reproduced IFB states that questions are due to ProcurementQnR@mdek12.org by September 18, 2026 at 2:00 PM CST, with responses scheduled for September 22. It also states that bids may be submitted electronically through the Mississippi MAGIC supplier system or shipped to MDE and that in-person delivery will not be accepted. Electronic bidders must be registered as State of Mississippi suppliers in MAGIC.
Vendor Registration and Qualifications
The reproduced IFB requires the bidder to be registered to do business in Mississippi or to complete registration within seven business days after being offered an award; sole proprietors are excepted from the Secretary of State registration requirement. It also requires the submitted business name to match the registered legal or fictitious business name. Public solicitation indexing further describes experience, reference, insurance and properly licensed hauling-equipment requirements. Because the official IFB attachment did not render directly through the available document connection, Atlas treats those package-level qualifications as supplemental until independently confirmed against the controlling attachment.
Value
The accessible official Mississippi procurement record does not publish a contract ceiling or total estimated value. Atlas therefore records value as not officially stated and does not use third-party estimated ranges as controlling.
Addenda and FAQs
MDE’s current bid-announcement page lists this IFB as active and, as of Atlas verification, does not list a separate amendment or FAQ beneath the Modular Classroom Removal Services entry. Vendors remain responsible for monitoring MDE for any later amendments and acknowledging them as required.
Atlas Analysis
N9+ Fit Score: 0/100. This is school-facility removal, towing and disposal work, not a remote physical examination, telehealth, clinical, diagnostics, or school-health procurement.
QC Healthcare / Dr. Miltie direct-vendor fit: 0/100. Atlas has no verified evidence that Dr. Miltie, LLC or QC Healthcare performs modular-building removal, heavy hauling, demolition or disposal services or holds the specialized qualifications this work requires. No direct bid is being advanced.
Atlas Opportunity Score: 5/100 for Dr. Miltie direct pursuit. The opportunity is valid Mississippi education-sector procurement intelligence but has no legitimate current Dr. Miltie healthcare or grant-services pathway.
