This is Addendum #3 to Bid #10330 for Lawn/Landscape Maintenance Services issued by Southern University and A&M College's Purchasing Department in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The addendum provides responses to vendor inquiries regarding the landscape maintenance contract that includes mowing, fertilization, weed control, and other grounds maintenance services. The bid is due February 18, 2025 at 10:30 A.M., with 17 cuts required from March 1 to June 30, 2025 and 42-44 cuts including specialized event cuts for FY 2025-26. A mandatory pre-bid site visit is required, and vendors must acknowledge receipt of Addenda #1, 2, and 3.

The previous contract pricing was $2,400 per cut for Athletics areas and $3,750 per cut for Dormitory areas. No bid or performance bond is required. The scope includes annual fertilization in high pedestrian/vehicular areas, insect/disease treatment as needed, monthly bush hogging of bluff areas, and twice-yearly mulching with hardwood mulch in selected areas.
