Description

Texas A&M Athletics is seeking a qualified vendor to provide a full suite of special‑effects services—including CO₂/cryogenic jets, fog, confetti, pyrotechnics, and flame effects—for all home football games at Kyle Field and additional A&M athletic events (soccer, baseball, softball, track & field, basketball, etc.). The contractor must supply equipment, licensed technicians, pre‑event testing, on‑site execution, post‑event safety checks, insurance coverage of $10 million, and be able to produce electronic firing scripts and optional firework shows of varying lengths. The agreement will run for five years with annual pricing reviews, and the vendor must demonstrate at least ten years of experience with NCAA Division I FBS/FCS programs, maintain extensive insurance, and provide detailed technical and pricing proposals.

Budget estimate

$45,000 – $60,000

The solicitation lists a contract “value” of $50,000, which likely represents the anticipated annual spend for equipment, consumables, and technician labor. Over a five‑year term, total spend could range from $45 k to $60 k per year depending on the number of games, complexity of firework shows, and any optional add‑ons (e.g., longer pyrotechnic displays). Factors influencing the budget include the number of home games (≈7–8 per season), the size of the pyrotechnic inventory, travel costs for technicians, and insurance premiums.
