2024-0041 Playground Safety Audit

Paragraph 1:

The Atlanta Independent School System (APS) is seeking bids from qualified vendors to provide a comprehensive Playground Safety Audit across 85 school playground sites located in Dekalb County and the City of Atlanta, Georgia. The scope of work includes inspecting all playground equipment, identifying hazards and non-compliant conditions, providing recommendations for repairs and improvements, and assisting with budget projections. The selected vendor must submit audit reports weekly and have a local representative available within 48 hours. The initial contract term is one year with four one-year renewal options at APS's discretion. Vendors must provide pricing for the playground safety audits, including labor, materials, and delivery charges. APS will award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

Paragraph 2:

There is no mandatory MWBE participation goal, but APS encourages offerors to identify any inclusive practices used to increase MWBE involvement. The IFB does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it specify any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The IFB does not provide a budget range or award value, but the vendor must submit their pricing for the complete playground safety audit report as specified in the Bid Form.
