Description
The Richmond County Board of Education is soliciting proposals for the design, delivery, and installation of two new outdoor playgrounds (ages 2‑5 and 5‑12) at Freedom Park K‑8 School on Fort Gordon, GA, including all equipment, poured rubber safety surfacing, and related warranties. The contract will be awarded on November 17 2026, with a 90‑day window for delivery and installation. Vendors must submit sealed proposals (hard copy and USB) by November 9 2026, and must meet extensive safety, accessibility, insurance, background‑check, and E‑Verify requirements. No pre‑bid meeting is scheduled; access to the military installation requires a background check and visitor pass.
• Scope: Supply and install complete playground systems (structures, surfacing, canopies, signage) for two age‑specific zones.
• Delivery & Installation: Must be completed within 90 days of award; coordination with school maintenance contact David Perry.
• Compliance: Must meet CPSC, ASTM, ADA, IPEMA standards; provide product liability insurance ($5 M) and workers’ comp ($1 M).
• Submission: Sealed envelope to Dr. Malinda B. Cobb, c/o CFO Bobby A. Smith, with one hard copy and one USB copy; questions due Oct 29 2026.
• Location constraints: Fort Gordon military base – non‑DoD personnel need NCIC background check and visitor pass.
• Evaluation: “Best overall value” – quality, safety, warranty, and compliance will be weighted.
