Bids due Tuesday for Tippah County Technical Center building addition

South Tippah School District is seeking construction bids for a building addition at the Tippah County Technical Center in Ripley, with submissions due Tuesday, Oct. 6, at 2 p.m.

The state procurement listing identifies the solicitation as open and lists no contract award. The deadline marks a step in selecting a contractor; it does not establish that construction has begun.

According to the project’s bid advertisement, sealed bids will be received at the district office, 402 Greenlee Street in Ripley. Electronic submissions are also permitted through the planroom linked in the advertisement.

The project is listed as the South Tippah School District Tippah County Technical Center Building Addition, under PryorMorrow project number 2024520. Prospective bidders can consult the planroom for documents and submission requirements.

The notices reviewed do not establish a final contract price or a construction completion date. Those details should not be treated as settled while the project remains in the bidding stage.
