NIGP 37046: Seed Extractors

NIGP 37046 Seed Extractors, an Item code, encompasses seed application and landscape seeding services that state and local governments procure as part of site restoration and grounds maintenance following infrastructure repairs. The scope of work includes seeding operations with multiple grass varieties (Fescue, Rye, Bermuda, Centipede, and Zoysia), soil preparation, mulch application, erosion-control matting, and complementary plantings of trees and shrubs. State and local issuing bodies—primarily county departments of public works and similar grounds-maintenance functions—solicit these services to restore landscaped areas after water, sewer, and utility work. Work typically spans multiple sites within a jurisdiction and may include compliance with state immigration requirements and standard liability insurance thresholds.

Fulton County Government's Department of Public Works posted ITB 26ITB169170A-ST on October 5, 2026, requesting landscaping restoration services with bids due November 3, 2026, following sewer and water main repairs at various County sites. The solicitation specifies seeding with Fescue and Rye, sod replacement in four Bermuda, Centipede, Zoysia, and Fescue varieties, mulch application (Cypress, Mini Nuggets, Dyed Red, and Pine Straw), and planting across eight tree groups and three shrub groups with quantities ranging from 5 to 12,000 units by line item. The contract runs through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewal terms, and is subject to Fulton County's MBE and FBE participation targets of 11.49% and 2.62% respectively. A pre-bid conference was held via Zoom on October 20 at 10:00 a.m., with questions due October 27 at 2:00 p.m. via BidNet Direct.
