Bear Boxes-Picnic Tables with Installation
The Forest Service is seeking information from small businesses capable of manufacturing and installing bear-proof storage boxes and heavy-duty outdoor picnic tables for remote campground environments. The bear-proof boxes must meet Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee standards and include on-site concrete pad installation, while the picnic tables require pre-cast concrete bases with plank tops assembled on-site. Performance locations are in remote areas with narrow, unpaved roads and rough terrain, requiring logistics for transporting heavy components and executing concrete pours without direct access for heavy equipment. No specific budget amounts or submission timelines are mentioned in the description. Vendors are asked to provide capability statements, product compliance details, and rough order of magnitude pricing per unit, including installation costs.
