Manufactured home-myrtle beach SP

The South Carolina Department of Parks, Recreation & Tourism (SCPRT) issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for a manufactured home replacement at Myrtle Beach State Park, located at 4401 South Kings Highway. The procurement seeks a new 4-bedroom, 2-bath manufactured home measuring 26 feet wide by 68 feet long, specifically the TRU Homes Pride Model (TRU28684RH) or an equivalent alternative. Detailed specifications include Wind Zone 2 and Thermal Zone 3 compliance, with specific insulation requirements (R-22 flooring, R-11 walls, R-30 ceiling), a 200 AMP main electrical panel, black Frigidaire appliances, and Duracraft cabinetry with Omaha Oak finish. Bidders were required to attend a site visit by appointment, with contact through Troy Crider, Park Manager, at 843-238-5325. Key procurement dates included a question submission deadline of March 15, 2021 at 10:00 AM, bid submission deadline of March 23, 2021 at 1:00 PM, and award notification scheduled for March 26, 2021. The successful contractor must complete delivery and installation within 90 days after receiving the purchase order.

The solicitation did not specify explicit set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, but did allow for South Carolina and U.S. end-product preferences in accordance with South Carolina Code Section 11-35-1524. Vendor registration with the state was mandatory, and all offers were to be submitted online at http://www.procurement.sc.gov. Insurance requirements were comprehensive, including Commercial General Liability ($1,000,000 per occurrence), Auto Liability ($1,000,000 per accident), and Worker's Compensation with Employer's Liability ($1,000,000 per accident). Interestingly, no award was ultimately made for this solicitation due to no bids being received. The procurement was structured as a statewide term contract, and the lack of bidder response indicated insufficient market interest to proceed with a contract award. The total project scope involved not just the manufactured home structure, but also transportation, delivery, setup, and ground anchoring at the specified Myrtle Beach State Park location.
