Invasive species services

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has established a Master Agreement (22135) for Invasive Species Services, primarily focused on supporting comprehensive ecological management and control strategies. This Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) enables the procurement of specialized services related to identifying, monitoring, and managing invasive species within Florida's diverse ecosystems. The contract is designed to provide flexible, targeted support for addressing environmental challenges posed by non-native species that potentially threaten native wildlife, habitats, and ecological balance.

The master contract is awarded to the University of Georgia Research as the prime contractor, with a five-year performance period from April 20, 2023, to April 20, 2028. This state-level Master Agreement is specifically scoped for Florida and operates as a flexible contract mechanism to facilitate targeted invasive species interventions. While specific contract value details are not provided, the IDV represents a strategic partnership between the FWC and the University of Georgia Research to support critical environmental management objectives through a structured, long-term contractual arrangement.
