Fitness Court System

Dutchess Community College is conducting a Request for Bid (RFB-DCC-24-2025) for a comprehensive Fitness Court System to be located in Dutchess County, New York. The procurement specifically seeks one "NFC Fitness Court System" manufactured by National Fitness Campaign, LLC or an approved equivalent. The system must include a seven-station circuit training configuration capable of supporting 28 users simultaneously, featuring thirty body-weight fitness elements. Additional required components include a body-weight training wall with custom vinyl graphics, a 1,024 square foot outdoor sports floor with blue fitness tiles, and an accompanying mobile app with training and engagement features. Technical requirements mandate high-grade carbon steel structural components with dual-layer powder coating, stainless steel fittings, and a comprehensive warranty covering maintenance and replacement parts. Sealed bids are due on May 5, 2025, by 3:00 PM, with a public bid opening to follow. The mobile app must provide educational modules, workout guides, GPS check-ins, and health tracking capabilities.

The procurement does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. Insurance requirements for bidders include worker's compensation, automobile liability, and general liability coverage, with Dutchess Community College to be listed as an additional insured. The college reserves the right to award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder and may extend purchasing rights to other municipal and non-profit organizations under New York General Municipal Law. While no specific budget range is detailed, the project is anticipated to be funded through the college's existing budget, with no minimum or maximum purchase guaranteed. The procurement appears open to qualified vendors who can meet the technical specifications and demonstrate the ability to provide a comprehensive fitness system with robust technological integration. Potential bidders should carefully review the technical requirements, particularly the specifications for the fitness equipment, mobile application functionality, and installation requirements.
