This is an Invitation for Bid (IFB) document issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing for the Frampton Heights project involving rangeland vegetation management services. The solicitation seeks contractors to perform two distinct line items: Lop & Scatter treatment on 650 acres and Cut & Pile treatment on 101 acres. Participation is restricted to prequalified contractors currently listed on the State of Utah's Pre-Qualified Rangeland Vendor list for the respective treatment type. No mandatory site visit will be held prior to bidding; however, potential bidders are strongly encouraged to conduct their own site inspections to assess conditions affecting project costs. The contract performance period runs from September 21, 2026, through November 13, 2026. Multiple awards may be made to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor per line item, with each vendor required to be prequalified for the specific treatment type to submit a bid on each line item.

The solicitation anticipates that awards will be made based on the lowest overall cost per line item. Vendors must guarantee their pricing through project completion. As a prequalified solicitation, only contractors on the State of Utah's Pre-Qualified Rangeland Vendor list are eligible to bid. The pricing structure appears designed to incentivize competitive bidding while ensuring that qualified, experienced contractors perform the specialized rangeland management work required for this project.
