469 Living Room Furniture

The Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Parks Division is requesting quotes on mission-style wood frame living room furniture—sofas, loveseats, and chairs—for cottages at various state parks across Georgia under RFX 46200-DNR0000385, with quotes due May 4, 2015 and written questions due April 21, 2015 at 5:00 p.m. ET. Georgia Enterprises for Products and Services (GEPS) are eligible for an 8% price preference during evaluation under the State Use Law, and Georgia-based suppliers receive reciprocal preference equivalent to that granted by other states to their resident suppliers.

The procurement is a single-award, one-time purchase with all items ordered at once and delivered to one central location at each park. Inside delivery is required and must be quoted as net pricing in US dollars with F.O.B. destination terms. The state will supply all fabric to the awarded supplier, and quotes need not include fabric pricing. The agency prefers delivery within 60 days of receipt of customer-supplied fabric; lift gate delivery is preferred due to absence of loading docks at park sites and ongoing guest occupancy during delivery.

Evaluation is lowest-cost-basis, awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible supplier meeting all specifications. No specific manufacturer is required, and suppliers may submit multiple quotes with different furniture styles. The contract is not multi-year. Responses must be submitted electronically through Team Georgia Marketplace; responses received after the deadline or submitted through other means will not be considered. Within ten business days of award, the successful supplier must procure and provide two Certificates of Insurance, including Commercial General Liability with minimum coverage of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate. All pricing must be firm throughout the contract term unless otherwise noted. Georgia is exempt from certain taxes and no tax provisions should be included in quoted pricing. A Notice of Intent to Award is anticipated one to two weeks after closing, with final award approximately ten calendar days after the NOIA.
