This is an Invitation for Bid (IFB) document issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing for rangeland vegetation management services at Frampton Heights. The procurement is limited to prequalified contractors on the State of Utah's Pre-Qualified Rangeland Vendor list. The contract includes two line items: Line Item One covers Lop & Scatter treatment for 650 acres, and Line Item Two covers Cut and Pile treatment for 101 acres. Contractors must be prequalified for the specific treatment type(s) for which they submit bids. No mandatory site visit will be held prior to bidding; however, prospective bidders are strongly encouraged to inspect the site to familiarize themselves with local conditions that may affect performance and pricing. The project performance period runs from September 21, 2026, through November 13, 2026, and vendors must guarantee their pricing through project completion.

The IFB may result in multiple awards, with the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor potentially being awarded for each line item. Pricing should reflect the vendor's ability to complete the specified acreage within the performance timeline. Vendors must be aware that failure to conduct a site inspection does not constitute grounds for claims or disputes after contract award. All bidders must possess current prequalification status on the appropriate rangeland vendor category to be eligible for award consideration.
