CAMPERS

The South Carolina State Fiscal Accountability Authority, Division of Procurement Services, is soliciting bids on behalf of the SC Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism (SCPRT) for five campers to be used as rental facilities at Black River State Park. Specifically, the procurement involves purchasing two Airstream Flying Cloud 30FB and three Airstream Flying Cloud 30RB campers, with a requirement for 2024 or newer model year units. The campers must meet precise specifications, including a length between 30-32 feet, sleeping capacity for 6-8 people, and various amenities such as specific kitchen and living space configurations. A pre-bid conference is scheduled for 05/20/2025 at 10:30 AM ET via Microsoft Teams, with final bid submissions due by 05/29/2025 at 11:00 AM ET. Vendors must provide unit pricing for each camper type, ensure the units are TRA Certified Green with Emerald Status, and include the manufacturer's standard 3-year warranty. The solicitation emphasizes that the brand name is used to describe quality standards and is not intended to limit competition, with delivery required within 60 days after purchase order issuance and award posting anticipated on 06/04/2025.

Vendors must be registered with the state and submit a complete bid package, including a signed cover page, bid schedule, product specifications, and a minority participation form. While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed, the inclusion of a minority participation form suggests an emphasis on diverse vendor participation. The total procurement involves five campers, though a specific budget range is not provided in the documentation. Interested vendors will need to submit comprehensive documentation demonstrating compliance with the detailed camper specifications and state procurement requirements. The solicitation indicates a preference for vendors who can meet the exact technical specifications while potentially supporting minority business enterprise participation. Delivery of the campers is expected within 60 days of purchase order issuance, with the units intended to enhance recreational facilities at Black River State Park by providing high-quality rental accommodations for park guests.
