GCHS Turf Baseball Field

The Gordon County School System is seeking proposals for a synthetic turf baseball field installation project at Greene County High School through a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued on November 13, 2024, with proposals due by December 13, 2024, at 2:00 PM. The project scope includes comprehensive field preparation, involving base construction, drainage system installation, and synthetic turf implementation using FieldTurf materials. Proposers must meet specific qualifications, including employing ASBA certified field builders and demonstrating experience with similar projects through provided references. The evaluation criteria will assess the firm's reputation, compliance with RFP requirements, geographical location, past performance, and proposed cost. Key project deliverables include a fully prepared and installed synthetic baseball field with precise technical specifications for base compaction, drainage, and turf installation. The project timeline mandates completion by February 10, 2025, with a $30,000 contingency allowance included in the project budget. Proposing firms must carefully adhere to the detailed technical requirements outlined in the RFP document.

While the RFP does not explicitly mention set-aside designations or specific restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises, interested contractors should carefully review all qualification requirements. The document does not indicate any incumbent vendors or existing technological infrastructure that would require integration. The overall project budget appears to be structured around the comprehensive field transformation, with the $30,000 contingency allowance suggesting a total project value likely in the range of $250,000 to $500,000, depending on the field's specific dimensions and complexity. Potential bidders should note the stringent technical specifications, which include precise requirements for base preparation, drainage systems, and synthetic turf installation. Proposers will need to demonstrate technical expertise, provide comprehensive references, and submit a competitive cost proposal that meets the project's detailed performance standards.
