Cafeteria Tables

Paulding County School Nutrition (SFA) is issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) for cafeteria tables to be procured for multiple school locations including Roberts Elementary, Hiram High, Panter Elementary, Dobbins Middle, McGarity Elementary, and Nebo Elementary School. The procurement seeks 50 mobile stool tables with specific technical requirements including precise dimensions, frame specifications, leg design, laminate top composition, and stool/bench characteristics. Vendors must provide a comprehensive unit price that encompasses tables, delivery, uncrating, assembly, installation, and debris removal, with no permitted substitutions from the detailed specifications. The proposal submission deadline is November 22, 2024, with an anticipated contract award date of December 11, 2024. Proposals will be evaluated based on compliance with technical specifications, pricing, and the ability to meet the comprehensive requirements outlined in the RFP documentation.

The RFP does not explicitly indicate any specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged businesses or restrict participation to particular types of vendors. No incumbent vendors are identified in the documentation, and there are no clear indications of specific integration requirements with existing infrastructure or technology. While the total estimated value is not directly stated, the procurement involves supplying tables across multiple school locations, suggesting a moderate-scale contract opportunity. The contract period is defined as 60 days, with pricing expected to remain firm throughout this timeframe. Successful vendors will be required to provide proof of insurance coverage and demonstrate compliance with federal, state, and local regulatory requirements, including buy American provisions, lobbying certifications, and debarment verifications.
