Description:
Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools is seeking a qualified contractor to design, supply, and install a complete K‑4 playground system at an elementary school. The scope covers delivery of commercial‑grade playground equipment matching the district’s prototype design, engineered wood‑fiber surfacing for the entire 4,125 sq ft play area, ADA‑compliant border and ramp systems, all site preparation, installation, and post‑installation inspection. The contractor must provide warranties, maintenance documentation, and comply with ASTM F1487, ASTM F1292, ASTM F1951, CPSC guidelines, and ADA standards. The contract is a five‑year, multi‑vendor award with a competitive evaluation based primarily on cost. • Supply and install direct‑bury playground equipment (22 components) plus engineered wood‑fiber surfacing and containment borders. • Provide design documentation, ADA‑accessible pathways, and final inspection without third‑party safety auditor requirement. • Meet extensive insurance, background‑check, and compliance requirements; freight to be reimbursed when quoted. • Evaluation: 50 points cost, 20 points qualifications/experience, 20 points past performance, 10 points approach.

Budget Estimate (AI):

$300,000 – $600,000

The contract encompasses a complete playground system for a single elementary school, including equipment, engineered wood‑fiber surfacing (≈4,125 sf), borders, ramp, freight, and installation. Comparable school playground projects in the Southeast range from $200,000 for modest installations to $800,000 for larger, fully‑featured systems with extensive surfacing and shade structures. Assuming a mid‑size K‑4 playground with 22 equipment items and full surfacing, a realistic award value is likely between $300k and $600k. Factors influencing the final amount include equipment brand selections, surface material costs, site‑specific grading work, and any additional optional accessories the contractor elects to propose.
