This is a Scope of Work document for the State of Utah Division of Wildlife Resources detailing lop and scatter services for the Red Canyon West project. The IFB seeks to contract with a prequalified vendor to provide forestry management services including lopping and scattering of vegetation according to specified requirements outlined in Attachment B. The contract period runs from October 1, 2026, through December 1, 2027, with all work required to be completed by December 1, 2027, and no contract extensions permitted due to wildlife habitat timing stipulations. No work may be conducted between May 1st and August 1st without prior approval due to migratory bird restrictions, and no additional time will be granted for winter stoppages or adverse weather conditions. There is no mandatory site visit requirement, and this procurement is anticipated to result in a single contract award to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor.

Participation in this solicitation is limited exclusively to prequalified contractors currently listed on the State of Utah's Pre-approved/Pre-qualified Vendor list; vendors not on this list are not permitted to submit bids. The vendor must guarantee its pricing through project completion with no price adjustments allowed. The procurement is conducted by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing on behalf of the Division of Wildlife Resources, and all work must adhere to the specified performance timeline and environmental restrictions established for wildlife habitat protection.
