Madison County opens four recreation procurement packets; concessionaire RFP receives no offers
Summary
County Clerk Christina Backs and Recreation Director Shelly McDaniel opened four procurement packets for the Madison County Recreation Department and recorded proposals from several suppliers for equipment and apparel; the concessionaire request drew no submissions.
Madison County officials opened four requests for proposals and qualifications for the county Recreation Department and said no proposals were received for the concessionaire solicitation.
"Good morning. We are here today to do 4 RFQ and RFP openings for the recreation department," said Christina Backs, county clerk, as she and Shelly McDaniel, recreation department director, read aloud and recorded the submissions. Backs told attendees that the packet for RFP 2506, the concessionaire proposal, had no responses.
The openings covered four items: RFP 2506 (recreation department concessionaire), RFP 2507 (All Star packages), RFP 2508 (uniforms and coaches apparel) and RFP 2509 (athletic equipment). For RFP 2507, Backs announced a submission from "Shuma" (listed in the packet as received but with no pricing included) and one from BSN Sports that contained per-unit quotes. Backs said Crown USA Inc. submitted a bid for RFP 2508 with per-unit pricing for uniform items. For RFP 2509, the county received athletic-equipment packets identified in the record as from "Shima Sports," VSN Sports, Riddle, and BSN Sports; several of the packets contained per-unit pricing, which the clerk said would be verified.
The opening was procedural: county staff read the names of submitting firms and noted whether pricing or unit quotes were included. Backs said the pricing entries would be verified; no awards or contract approvals were made during the session. The record does not include specific dollar amounts in the clerk's reading.
Shelly McDaniel, recreation department director, was present during the openings; she did not announce decisions at the meeting. The county will proceed with verification of the bids and follow its procurement process for evaluation and award according to standard county procedures. A timeline for review or awards was not specified in the public reading.
The packet readings did not include references to funding sources, program budgets, or contract start dates; those details were not specified during the opening and will be determined during the procurement evaluation process.
