Kayak Procurement and Delivery

The contract seeks the procurement of durable single- and tandem recreational kayaks designed for public rental use on state park lakes, with an emphasis on robust construction to withstand frequent, high-volume usage. Suppliers must deliver the kayaks in bulk, ensuring all units meet specified standards for safety, performance, and longevity under outdoor conditions, and include necessary support such as mounting hardware, storage racks, or instructional materials as required for state park operations. The opportunity is structured as a subcontract under NAICS code 423930, which covers wholesale trade of recreational and sporting goods, indicating the buyer intends to resell or redistribute the kayaks through a larger logistics or service framework. All deliveries must be completed by the response deadline of August 5, 2026, and performance is expected to occur across multiple state park locations in Kentucky, though the specific sites are not delineated in the posted details. The contracting entity is listed as Finance Facilities under the Kentucky state agency, and bidders must submit proposals via the online portal linked in the solicitation.
