RFP Number 10.7.26.1 - Playground Design and Installation

RFP Number 10.7.26.1 was issued by the David Douglas School District in Portland, Oregon, to solicit proposals for the design and installation of ADA accessible and inclusive playgrounds. The scope of work primarily involves the installation of one preschool playground, with the potential for additional preschool or K-5 installations and as-needed work at existing sites. The project requires the provision of equipment, surfacing, site amenities, and a guarantee of repair parts availability for at least five years. Selection is based on a qualifications-based process weighing technical proposals (100 points) and price proposals (50 points), with a focus on design experience, project timelines, and product lines. The procurement mandates strict adherence to federal and state regulations, including the Davis-Bacon Act, EDGAR Uniform Guidance, and Oregon prevailing wage rates. Awarded contractors must provide performance and payment bonds equal to 100 percent of the contract amount and maintain specific insurance coverages. While the original solicitation set a completion deadline of August 15, 2024, and a response deadline of November 9, 2026, the David Douglas School District issued a formal notice on October 21, 2026, cancelling the RFP due to significant revisions in the project scope. The solicitation is intended to be re-issued at a later date via OregonBuys.
