Sports and Recreation covers public solicitations tied to parks, athletics and recreation programs: playground and fitness equipment, athletic field construction and maintenance, turf and court surfacing, pool operations and chemicals, athletic uniforms and equipment, recreation program instructors, and management of golf courses, marinas and recreation centers. Buyers include park and recreation departments, school districts, colleges and universities, and state park agencies.
Equipment, uniforms and supplies are usually bought through an invitation for bid or a request for quotation against a specification, and many districts also buy through cooperative purchasing contracts. Facility management, concessions and recreation programming are more often bought through a request for proposals scored on experience, approach and price or revenue share. Field and court construction usually follows the agency's standard construction bidding rules.
This page lists open sports and recreation bids from state, local and federal buyers, soonest closing first, plus recently closed solicitations and contract awards. Much of this buying follows the season and the budget year, so the award history helps you see when agencies order, what they bought last time and who supplied it.
