Room Amenities for Lake Barkley State Resort Park

The Commonwealth of Kentucky, through the Finance and Administration Cabinet on behalf of the Kentucky Department of Parks, is conducting a Request for Bid (RFB) for room amenities for the Lake Barkley State Resort Park located in Trimble County. The RFB seeks bids for various items such as irons, ice buckets, wastebaskets, hangers, hair dryers, alarm clocks, towel shelves, luggage racks, and ironing boards, with a total quantity of 496 units. Bids are due by October 18, 2022, at 1:30 PM ET and will be evaluated on a best value basis, with 90% of the score based on price and 10% on delivery time. Vendors proposing alternate brands or specifications are required to include descriptive literature with their bids, and the contract will be awarded for the brand/specification stated in the solicitation if no alternates are proposed.

The RFB indicates a preference may be given to Kentucky resident bidders and qualified bidders, such as Kentucky Correctional Industries. While the solicitation does not provide specific pricing terms, set-asides, or funding requirements, it states the Commonwealth reserves the right to cancel the RFB if responses exceed available funding. The RFB does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it specify any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The contract will be for a one-time purchase with no stated term or renewal options.
