3-Forsyth Fire Seed Bid Line Item specs.xlsx

This is a bid line item specification sheet prepared by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing for the Wildlife division's Forsyth Fire Seed procurement (BD27-109). The procurement seeks delivery of 19,600 pounds of bulk Pure Live Seed (PLS) in the variety Quickguard sterile triticale (Triticum aestivum x Secale cereal) by October 1, 2026. The seed must be noncertified and sourced according to specifications outlined in the bid document. No mandatory site visit is required prior to bidding, though potential bidders are strongly encouraged to inspect the project site and satisfy themselves regarding all conditions that may affect performance costs. The contract is anticipated to result in a single award to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor, though multiple awards are possible if the lowest bidder cannot provide the entire required seed weight; in such cases, the remainder will be offered to the second-lowest bidder. The contract term extends through delivery completion by October 1, 2026.

Pricing shall be submitted on a per-pound basis for bulk seed, with bidders required to guarantee their pricing for the duration of the contract. The bid sheet specifies minimum acceptable purity and Pure Live Seed (PLS) percentage requirements, though the exact percentages appear incomplete in the provided documentation. Bidders must indicate the variety offered, certification status, germination percentage, purity percentage, and total dollar value based on bulk pricing. All seed delivery must be completed prior to October 1, 2026, with no renewal options indicated for this one-time procurement contract.
