Summary: Presented by: Mr. Erick Hofstetter, Chief Operating Officer, Division of Operations
Request: It is requested that the DeKalb County Board of Education approve the use of the Sourcewell RFP #081523 Cooperative Agreement contract between DeKalb County School District (“DCSD”) and Hussey Seating Corporation, where their exclusive dealer, Southeastern Surfaces & Equipment, Inc. (SSE) will provide gymnasium bleacher replacement and installation services, district-wide, in an amount not to exceed $1,000,000 at the following schools:

Cedar Grove Middle School
Stone Mountain High School
Clarkston High School
Why: The DeKalb County School District has an ongoing need to replace aging gymnasium bleacher systems that have exceeded their useful life and no longer meet current safety and ADA compliance standards.

The Board previously approved the use of Sourcewell RFP #081523 for district-wide bleacher replacement with a not-to-exceed $2,000,000, establishing the cooperative procurement method, vendor authorization, and pricing structure.

This agenda item ensures compliance with Board Policy DJE-D(IV)(B)(2) Exceptions for Competitive Selection - Required Levels of Approval, which requires Board approval for individual purchases or contracts exceeding $100,000, while continuing implementation of the already approved district-wide bleacher replacement program.
Details: DCSD will continue to utilize Sourcewell Contract #081523-HSC for the purchase and installation of gymnasium bleachers. Southeastern Surfaces & Equipment, Inc. (SSE) is the exclusive authorized dealer for Hussey Seating Corporation in the State of Georgia and will provide turnkey installation services at cooperative pricing. This Sourcewell contract was previously approved during the September 8, 2025, Board meeting.

The work will be executed under Purchase Order #26013193, which authorizes district-wide gym bleacher replacement and installation services. The bleacher systems will include enhanced safety and accessibility features, including but not limited to:

ADA-compliant access
Upgraded deck systems
Self-storing rails
Intermediate steps
Pendant control operation

The DeKalb County School District’s Master Services Agreement will be used.
Financial impact: The contract amount for the gymnasium bleacher replacement is not to exceed $1,000,000.

Funds will be allocated from the cost code: (100.2600.543013.00011.7520.9990.8013.040.0000), General Fund Budget - Deferred Maintenance.

Cedar Grove Middle School - $270,527.49
Stone Mountain High School - $302,219.78
Clarkston High School- $272,426.29

All expenditures remain within the not-to-exceed approved PO No 26013193 of $1,000,000.
