NS26-158 Taylor West Weber Park Dist - Walker Creek Park Playground & Sports Courts

The Taylor West Weber Park District is soliciting proposals under solicitation number NS26-158 for the construction of a playground and sports courts at Walker Creek Park in Utah, with an estimated contract value of $1,150,000. All proposals must be submitted electronically through the U3P/Bonfire portal no later than Tuesday, June 30, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. MT, with a strict 1GB file size limit per upload; no physical submissions or late responses will be accepted. Questions must be submitted via the same portal by Wednesday, June 24, 2026, at 3:30 p.m. MT. This solicitation is not managed by the Utah Division of Purchasing, and vendors are solely responsible for reviewing the full solicitation to ensure compliance. The contract is governed by a unique set of sequentially numbered clauses rather than FAR-style provisions, covering indemnification, employment practices, confidentiality, termination, debarment, anti-boycott compliance, and contract amendments. The project requires strict adherence to safety and accessibility standards including NPSI, CPSC, ASTM, and ADA, and all deliverables must be new, defect-free, and installed at the designated site in Utah under F.O.B. Destination terms. Evaluation of proposals is conducted on a trade-off basis with technical merit prioritized over cost, requiring a minimum technical score of 700 out of 1,000 points to be considered for award. The technical evaluation weighs design quality at 500 points, including innovation, material specifications, warranty terms, and compliance with applicable standards. Experience is weighted at 200 points and requires documentation of three to five comparable playground or sports court projects completed within the last three years, along with photographs. Cost accounts for 300 points but is only evaluated for technically qualified proposals, with scoring based primarily on price competitiveness—lowest cost receives 200 of the 300 available cost points—and secondarily on the clarity and completeness of the cost breakdown using the required template. Contractors must certify compliance with E-Verify, anti-boycott laws, and non-debarment status and are required to undergo background checks if personnel will work on state premises. No options, line-item pricing, or detailed payment or invoicing systems are specified beyond a general 30-day payment term. The contract includes a nonappropriation clause, warranty obligations for all deliverables
