Addendum 1 – Q&A

Shade Structures

RFP PWUP 23-23

The following changes and clarifications to the RFP are provided based on questions received and must be added/considered when completing your proposal:

Q. Is it the responsibility of the provider to size and determine the height and clearance of the shades?

A. Please refer to Project Scope Item #1 provided in the RFP. The vendor is to use the examples provided as a guide to determine the proper size, height and clearance that would be most beneficial to the City.

Q. Will ‘approved or equal quality and warranty’ be accepted on some of the equipment?

A. Please refer to Project Scope Item #2 provided in the RFP. The vendor is to make sure all products meet required specifications.

Q. Is ISO9001 Certification required to participate in this bid?

A. As required per the product specifications, the shade structure manufacturer must be

ISO9001 certified.

Q. In order to incorporate shade to the double bay swings at both parks, the structures will need to be replaced with new swing structures. Don't know if you are aware, but, swing structures with incorporated shade are installed with larger footings due to increased wind load. The existing swing bays likely do not have installed footings large enough. Also, retrofitting additional equipment onto the existing equipment will void the warranty. I recommend addendum to change to New Double-Swing Bays with Shade?

A. We will accept this language change and accept proposals quoting for new structures (New Double-Swing Bays with Shade).

Q. Brown Net Climbing Structure- You will not be able to retrofit the structure with shade due to smaller footing and warranty being voided?

A. We will accept proposals quoting for new structures.

Q. There are a total of 3 swing benches at Thrasher Park. One is in the photos you shared, the other two are on the opposite side of the park. Can you confirm how many Cantilever Umbrella Shades are needed?

A. The one shown in the picture is the only one needed.
