Palm Beach County is seeking to pre‑qualify vendors capable of supplying, delivering, and optionally installing playground, park, and water‑park equipment and parts on a term‑contract basis. The solicitation is a pre‑qualification (RPQ) that will create a list of approved vendors who can be called upon for individual projects as needs arise. Vendors must submit a sealed response by October 7 2024, providing company information, required certifications (anti‑lobbying, debarment, drug‑free workplace, human‑trafficking affidavit), licenses, and proof of compliance with federal, state and local safety standards (ANSI, NFPA, ASTM F1487). The contract will cover both purchase‑and‑delivery and purchase‑and‑installation options for six equipment categories (playground, park, water‑park – each delivery‑only or installation‑included). All work must be performed during normal County operating hours and comply with applicable safety, environmental, and labor regulations. The County will retain the right to award contracts on a project‑by‑project basis to any pre‑qualified vendor; no guaranteed volume is promised.

• Vendor must maintain all licenses, local business tax receipt, and insurance throughout the contract term.
