The 45th Force Support Squadron is seeking to procure a floating dock system to enhance the Outdoor Recreation facility at Patrick Space Force Base, Florida. This initiative aims to meet the operational demand for boat storage and launching, improving safety and customer experience for Department of Defense personnel and their families. The required dock must accommodate four boats up to 21 feet in length, constructed from durable, environmentally compliant materials with safety features such as non-slip surfaces and integrated ladders. The selected vendor will be responsible for delivering and installing the dock within 30 days post-award, ensuring adherence to safety standards and providing a minimum 10-year warranty on materials. Funding for this procurement comes from the 45th Force Support Squadron's nonappropriated funds for facility improvements. Vendors must have relevant experience, evidenced by references of similar successful installations, to participate in this request for proposal process.
