Beaumont Park Playground Equipment & Surfacing

The City of Green Bay Parks, Recreation & Forestry Department is seeking proposals for a comprehensive playground redevelopment project at Beaumont Park, located at 1600 Sue Lane in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The procurement (RFP #2025-35) involves designing, furnishing, and installing new playground equipment and artificial turf surfacing for a park area targeting children ages 5-12. Specific project requirements include a modular play structure with multiple access points, ADA-compliant components, and specific equipment such as slides, climbers, a swing set, merry-go-round, and a communication board. Proposals are due on November 4, 2025, by 2:00 PM CDT, with a non-mandatory pre-bid site visit available by request. Evaluation criteria will assess proposals based on play value (30 points), number of components (25 points), ADA accessibility (25 points), creativity (15 points), and warranty (5 points). Vendors must comply with consumer safety guidelines, ASTM standards, and IPEMA certification.

The City demonstrates a commitment to supporting diverse businesses, specifically encouraging participation from minority, veteran, and disadvantaged business enterprises. The total project budget is $500,000, with $200,000 allocated for playground equipment and installation and $300,000 for artificial turf surfacing. The procurement specifies a preference for green, plain artificial turf without patterning and requires vendors to submit proposals that closely match but do not exceed the designated budget amounts. The playground installation will be coordinated with additional infrastructure work, including concrete edging by the Green Bay Public School District and proposed concrete walks to be installed by separate contractors. The project is located in Brown County, Wisconsin, and will replace existing playground equipment with a modern, accessible play environment designed to meet contemporary recreational and safety standards.
