About this opportunity
Northwestern State University's Business Affairs Purchasing Section has issued an Invitation to Bid (SB# 7666) for comprehensive athletics weight room equipment procurement, targeting an upgrade to the university's Health and Performance Center. The bid encompasses 62 line items of fitness equipment, including rack systems, auxiliary machines, cable attachments, bars, power blocks, plates, bikes, plyo boxes, med balls, bands, and accessories. The procurement requires all equipment to be new, free of defects, and include full shipping, handling, delivery, and installation services. The bid is scheduled to be opened on October 2, 2025, at 2 pm, with vendors required to submit detailed documentation including descriptive literature, rack system measurements, provenance details, and full equipment renderings to demonstrate product equivalence and space compatibility. Bidders are permitted to propose equivalent models but must provide clear justification for equivalence, and the university reserves the right to award items individually, in combination, or as a total package.
The procurement appears to be open to all qualified vendors without specific set-aside designations or enterprise restrictions. The bid includes a fair market value trade-in component for existing Williams brand equipment, allowing vendors to provide trade-in values for multiple multi-half racks and dumbbell benches currently in the university's inventory. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the 62-line item procurement suggests a significant investment in upgrading the university's athletic training infrastructure. Shipping and freight costs must be incorporated into the bid price, and vendors are expected to provide warranty coverage for all proposed equipment. The procurement spans jurisdictions including Ouachita Parish and New Orleans City in Louisiana, with Northwestern State University serving as the primary contracting agency for this equipment acquisition.
