Cafe Tables Replacement & Disposal

Kalamazoo County, Michigan is soliciting bids for the replacement and disposal of cafeteria tables. The procurement involves the supply of new cafeteria tables that meet specified quality and design standards, with three product specification sheets provided as reference materials: Palmer Hamilton 60T cafeteria tables featuring collapsible lifting frame designs with safety mechanisms and wheelchair-accessible configurations; Learniture Mobile Stool Cafeteria Tables (SKU: LNT-GNI1030-QS) measuring 144 inches in length with integrated seating for 12 students and mobile casters; and Virco MTS1729 Mobile Stool Tables available in two models with automatic locking mechanisms and 17-inch stool heights. The deliverables include fully assembled tables with integrated seating capacity, durable high-pressure laminate surfaces, powder-coated steel frames, and various color options for customization to institutional settings. Key objectives encompass replacing existing cafeteria furniture while ensuring durability, safety compliance, ease of storage through collapsible or mobile designs, and accessibility features. The bid was posted on June 2, 2025, with the same date serving as the due date for proposal submission, indicating an expedited procurement timeline.

The procurement documents do not specify set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise requirements, or restrictions limiting participation to particular vendor categories. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available documentation. While the specification sheets reference established manufacturers—Palmer Hamilton, Learniture through School Outfitters, and Virco—with existing product lines and warranties ranging from 10 to 15 years, the procurement does not explicitly restrict bidding to these vendors or require integration with existing infrastructure. No specific budget range or award value is disclosed in the contract opportunity posting.
