301511-630048 - Design Build Servicers for Playground Replacement Project

The City of Louisville (the “City”) is soliciting proposals from qualified firms (“Design Build Teams”) for project specific design and construction management services for three playground replacement projects in the years 2019 and 2020 in the City of Louisville. The intent is to design and construct new playgrounds at the following locations: Dutch Creek Park – ‘Elephant Park’ located at 261 Lilac Circle, Keith Helart Park located 200 Monarch Court, and the City’s Sports Complex located at Hwy. 42 south of South Boulder Road. By grouping multiple playgrounds together, the City hopes to recognize economies of scale with regard to cost.
 
The playgrounds in these parks are older and replacement parts for the play equipment are no longer available. The playgrounds have access issues and do not meet The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements. The goal of the playground replacement projects is to replace the old and outdated playgrounds with new playgrounds that are inviting, fun and meets or exceeds ADA requirements, CPSC, ASTM and IPEMA standards and creates a positive first impression of Louisville’s parks system.
 
The design and construction management services requested herein are to produce a range of conceptual options with cost analysis for each and once a final design is submitted and approved the selected Design Build Team will prepare construction level drawings and specifications followed by construction management during construction of the projects.
