The Commonwealth of Kentucky Finance and Administration Cabinet, on behalf of the Department of Military Affairs, is seeking bids for the procurement of wrought iron outdoor furniture. The solicitation requests 80 total wrought iron chairs, including 40 lounge chairs and 40 dining chairs, as well as 15 dining tables with umbrella holes. The furniture must be delivered assembled, with the exception of the table bases, to the Wendell H. Ford Regional Training Center in Greenville, Kentucky. Vendors must provide their best price and delivery time, as the contract will be awarded on a best value basis, with 90% of the evaluation weighted on price and 10% on delivery. The bid submission deadline has been extended to November 22, 2024 at 1:30 PM ET, and the Commonwealth requires 24-hour advance notice and 1-hour driver arrival notice for deliveries, which must occur Monday through Friday between 6:30 AM and 2:00 PM CST.

The solicitation includes preferences for Kentucky resident bidders and qualified bidders, such as Kentucky Correctional Industries, which receives a 20% price preference. Bidders must also complete an Annual Affidavit attesting to their compliance with campaign finance laws and providing documentation to support their claimed resident or qualified bidder status. There are no details provided on incumbent vendors or the available budget for this procurement, but the Commonwealth reserves the right to deem vendors ineligible for failure to comply with the solicitation's terms and conditions.
