About this opportunity
The City of Scranton Office of Business Administration is seeking sealed bids for the Capouse Splash Pad and Playground Project, a comprehensive park renovation located at 1335 Capouse Avenue in Scranton, Pennsylvania. The project involves installing a new splash pad, playground, parking lot, walkways, concrete curbing, fencing, utilities, and associated site work, with a substantial completion requirement of 180 days from the Notice to Proceed and full project completion targeted by April 2025. Bidders must register on the City's e-Procurement Portal and submit comprehensive documentation, including a Contractor Information Form, Statement of Bidder's Qualifications, Bid Bond (10%), Non-Collusion Affidavit, and various non-discrimination certifications. The bid submission deadline is August 1, 2024, at 10:00 am, with a non-mandatory pre-proposal meeting scheduled for July 16, 2024, at 10:00 am. Technical questions and clarification requests must be submitted through the e-Procurement Portal by July 25, 2024, at 4:30 pm. Contractors will be evaluated based on their technical capabilities, past performance, and ability to meet the project's complex infrastructure and recreational facility renovation requirements.
The project appears to have funding from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) and requires specific bonding requirements, including Performance and Payment Bonds for 100% of the contract price. While no specific set-aside designations are explicitly mentioned, the bid documents emphasize local employment and business utilization, with a strong focus on equal employment opportunities. Bidders must have a minimum of 5 years of experience under their current business name and be compliant with local tax requirements. The splash pad components must be installed by a Vortex-Certified installer, with a partial list provided including Vincent Pools, Inc., Mainline Commercial Pools, and Daniel A. Terreri and Sons, Inc. The geotechnical investigation suggests site preparation will involve over-excavation of existing fills, placement of geogrid, and compaction with PennDOT 2A structural fill. While no specific budget range is detailed, the comprehensive nature of the project and the required infrastructure improvements indicate a significant investment in the park's renovation.
