Pelican Playgrounds is proud to have earned a publicly procured, competitively solicited contract award for Playground Equipment & Related Solutions from Region 10 Education Service Center, an Equalis Group Lead Agency. This agreement will allow Pelican Playgrounds to provide playground and outdoor recreation equipment and services to public sector entities, including federal and state agencies, local governments, and educational institutions across the country through a legal and compliant exemption to the traditional bid/request for proposals process.

Equalis Group is a national public sector purchasing cooperative that develops and administers a diverse portfolio of cooperative purchasing programs that cover a wide range of products and services. Each program in Equalis’ rapidly growing portfolio provides its members with a legal and compliant exemption to the traditional bid/request for proposals (RFP) process and the ability to configure the solution that best meets their individual needs while achieving the lowest total cost.

This contract was procured and awarded in accordance with the requirements of 2-C.F.R. Part 200, commonly referred to as “Uniform Guidance”, so public agencies can spend federal grant and award dollars through this contract vehicle without having to conduct their own bid or RFP for our products and services.
