Sole Source Procurement Request with Dave Bang & Associates City Council Meeting
May 19, 2026
Dave Bang & Associates
Request authorization for a service agreement with an annual not-to-exceed amount of $250,000 for Playworld playground parts, warranty, and services.
The majority of the City’s playground equipment is manufactured by Playworld and requires manufacturer-specific components and installation.
Dave Bang & Associates, Inc. is the exclusive authorized Playword representative in California and the only vendor authorized to provide parts, installation, and repair services in the City’s service area.
Annual maintenance costs are anticipated to be approximately $50,000; the higher contract amount provides flexibility for unanticipated repairs, emergency response needs, and unforeseen conditions.
Failure to approve may result in prolonged playground closure, increased safety hazards, reduced public access to park facilities, and potential liability exposure.
