Plumbing Services:

Greenville County's Department of Parks, Recreation & Tourism is seeking licensed plumbing contractors to provide professional services for maintenance and repair across various county facilities through Request for Proposal #25124. The solicitation covers plumbing services for multiple locations including an Administrative Facility, 8 Community Centers, 42 park restrooms, 3 Waterpark Facilities, the Greenville County Aquatic Complex, the Pavilion Recreation Complex, and the Pleasant Ridge Camp & Retreat Center. Required services include video inspections of sanitary lines, clearing clogged lines, leak detection, backflow prevention inspections, and both scheduled and emergency repairs. The proposal requires vendors to submit comprehensive pricing for different service types, including business hours repairs, unscheduled repairs, and after-hours emergency repairs, along with a materials cost markup percentage. Evaluation will be based on five equally weighted criteria: responsiveness to solicitation, experience and past performance, pricing, timeline, and references, with each criterion scored on a 0-5 point scale. The RFP was issued on May 9, 2025, with proposals due by May 30, 2025 at 4:15 pm, and a tentative award date of June 13, 2025, with contract commencement expected on June 27, 2025.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The sample Services Agreement indicates potential for up to four annual renewals and requires contractors to maintain specific insurance coverage, including $1,000,000 comprehensive general liability insurance, $1,000,000 automobile liability insurance, and statutory worker's compensation coverage. While no incumbent vendors are listed, the contract includes standard provisions for termination, with the county able to terminate for convenience by providing thirty calendar days' advance written notice. Payment terms specify invoices will be submitted upon service completion, with payment due within ten days of receipt. Though a specific budget range is not provided, the comprehensive pricing structure suggests flexibility for various scale and complexity of plumbing services across multiple county recreational facilities. Vendors are required to provide references but are specifically prohibited from listing county representatives as references.
