2-Solicitation of Qualifications - Short-List Arrangement.pdf

This is a Solicitation of Qualifications document from Boulder County Procurement in Boulder, Colorado, establishing a short-list arrangement for fencing installation and repair services on Boulder County Open Space lands. The Boulder County Parks and Open Space Department seeks to create a pre-qualified list of fencing contractors who will be engaged on a project-by-project basis to install or repair fencing across both plains and mountain terrains within the county's open space holdings. The solicitation does not guarantee work to selected vendors; rather, it establishes a pool of qualified contractors available for future assignments as projects arise.

Under the short-list arrangement, project assignments are differentiated by value threshold. For projects valued below $10,000, Boulder County may assign work directly to any vendor on the shortlist based on project needs without competitive bidding. For projects valued at $10,000 or greater, the County will contact all vendors on the shortlist, provide a deadline for quote submission, and select a vendor based on timely-submitted quotes. This contracting structure is formalized in the contract template that selected vendors will execute, specifically outlined in Paragraph 2 of the agreement.
