Title
25. Motion to Procure Exercise Stations for Sylvan Terrace Park from Playworld Systems-PlayPower, Inc. (Event No. 6978)
Strategic Priority
Neighborhood Revitalization
Description

Recommend approval to procure exercise stations from Playworld Preferred in the amount of $47,068.00.  The workout stations will be used in the Sylvan Terrace Park located at the intersection of Montgomery Street and Berkley Place in Aldermanic District 5 will be used by the Office of Capital Projects to install five stations with roofs around the existing walking trail.

The method of procurement used for this purchase was a request for proposal issued by Sourcewell, formerly the National Joint Powers Alliance.  Sourcewell  is a purchasing cooperative that provides procurement resources and solutions to local and state government agencies, K-12 school districts, higher education institutions, and non-profit organizations at the contractor’s lowest available government pricing.  Third party audits are performed on all contracts and benchmarking analyses conducted to ensure ongoing value.  Sourcewell adheres to a stringent competitive selection process for all contracts offered through the program.  Lead governmental agencies issue the competitive solicitations and oversee the evaluation, award, and contractual process. 

Cooperative purchasing is authorized as an appropriate procurement method in Division 10 Section 4-4152 of the City of Savannah’s purchasing ordinance.

Proposals were received on March 2, 2017.  An evaluation selection team comprised of Sourcewell staff evaluated all 32 proposals received.  A contract was awarded by Sourcewell and a master agreement was signed for a four-year period on April 14, 2017.
