The Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Bureau of State Parks, is soliciting bids for a pavilion/shelter kit to be delivered to Prince Gallitzin State Park in Patton, Pennsylvania, covering jurisdictions including Clearfield County and Pennside CDP. The procurement involves furnishing and delivering a comprehensive kit that includes sealed engineered drawings, structural glue-laminated timber beams and columns, connector plates, roof decking, and associated hardware. Bidders must submit their proposals electronically through the PA Supplier Portal by March 23, 2018, with an addendum issued on March 13, 2018, modifying certain contract terms. The Statement of Work specifies detailed technical requirements, including delivery of engineered drawings by April 30, 2018, and building materials by May 31, 2018. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with the potential for liquidated damages of $500 per day for late delivery. Evaluation criteria include total bid price, technical specifications compliance, and the ability to meet the specified delivery schedule.

The solicitation appears to be open to all qualified vendors, with no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises mentioned in the documents. The Reciprocal Limitations Act form indicates a preference for Pennsylvania-based bidders, requiring detailed information about the manufacturer and state of origin for each item. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the procurement is for a complete pavilion/shelter kit, suggesting a potentially significant contract value. Bidders must provide comprehensive documentation, including certifications regarding lobbying, Iran-free procurement, and nondiscrimination. The Commonwealth reserves the right to terminate the contract for convenience or non-appropriation of funds, and may request references from bidders to verify qualifications. Payment will be made on a reimbursement basis following delivery and final acceptance, with invoices requiring specific documentation including the purchase order number, project number, and supplier's SAP Vendor Number.
