Description

The City of Birmingham is seeking a qualified vendor to provide rental of a broad inventory of carnival and concession equipment—including inflatables, mechanical rides, games, tents, and generators—on an indefinite‑delivery/quantity basis for up to three years. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with firm unit pricing for a 12‑month period and possible price adjustments thereafter. Vendors must meet strict sanitation, insurance, and E‑Verify requirements and submit a sealed bid with the required bond and documentation by the deadline. • Equipment categories cover inflatables, interactive attractions, combo units, mechanical rides, carnival games, and generators. • Delivery, setup, breakdown, sanitation, and transportation costs must be included in the unit price; rentals are typically one‑day with pickup the following day. • No minimum order quantity; the City may order any quantity throughout the contract term, offering steady revenue if the vendor can meet demand.

Budget estimate

$150,000 – $900,000

The solicitation does not disclose a total contract ceiling, but rental rates for inflatables, rides, and generators typically range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars per unit per event. Assuming the City orders an average of 20 items per event at $1,000‑$5,000 each and holds roughly 30 events per year, annual spend could be $300,000‑$1,500,000. Over a three‑year term, the vendor’s revenue might therefore fall between $150,000 (conservative low‑volume scenario) and $900,000 (higher‑volume scenario). These figures are rough estimates based on typical market rates and the breadth of equipment listed.
