RP031-25, Provision of Management, Operation and Maintenance Services for Collins Hill Golf Club on

Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners is soliciting competitive sealed proposals for management, operation, and maintenance services for Collins Hill Golf Club through a multi-year contract with the County's Department of Parks and Recreation. The procurement (RFP031-25) seeks a qualified contractor to comprehensively manage the golf course located at 585 Camp Perrin Road in Lawrenceville, Georgia, with an initial contract term from January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2026, and potential for nine additional renewal options. The selected provider will be responsible for complete golf course operations, including pro-shop and food services, staff hiring, facility and equipment maintenance, marketing, and revenue collection. The contractor must operate the golf course in a self-sustaining manner without additional cost to county taxpayers. Evaluation will be conducted in three phases: technical evaluation (100 points), cost proposal evaluation (20 points), and optional interviews (10 points). A mandatory Webex pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for September 24, 2025, at 10:00 A.M., with proposal submissions due by October 7, 2025, at 2:50 p.m.

The solicitation does not specifically highlight set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. Proposers must demonstrate financial capability, provide professional references, and submit a detailed operational plan complying with county requirements, including specific insurance, worker verification, and ethical standards. While no incumbent vendor is mentioned, the County reserves the right to award the contract to the most advantageous proposer, which may not necessarily be the lowest cost bidder. Successful contractors must provide high-level customer service, maintain excellent facility appearance, and demonstrate strong financial stewardship. Although a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the expectation is that the golf course will generate sufficient revenue to cover all operational costs. Proposers will need to showcase comprehensive operational expertise, financial stability, and the ability to effectively manage a public golf course facility without requiring additional municipal funding.
