6-RQS 2754 049 BLACKHORSE AND BIG PARK AERIAL SEEDING PT 2 (1).pdf

This is a Request for Qualifications/Sealed Bid document issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing on behalf of the State of Utah Division of Wildlife Resources for aerial seeding services. The project involves the application of seed across approximately 991 acres located in the Book Cliffs of Uintah County, Utah, to establish fuel breaks at two sites: Black Horse Ridge and Big Park. The contractor must provide labor, equipment, supervision, transportation, operating supplies, and incidentals necessary to complete the aerial seeding work. No mandatory site visit is required prior to bidding; however, potential bidders are strongly encouraged to inspect the project sites and assess local conditions that may affect contract performance costs. The Black Horse Ridge aerial seeding must be completed by October 18, 2026, while Big Park seeding must be completed by October 25, 2026. It is anticipated that this IFB will result in a single contract award to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor.

The contractor must guarantee pricing through project completion. No specific response date, formal bidders conference, or award date is detailed in the provided documentation. The contract does not include renewal options, as the scope is project-based with defined completion deadlines. Funding source and specific contract value are not identified in the available information. The document emphasizes that failure to conduct a site inspection shall not constitute grounds for claims after contract award, establishing the contractor's responsibility for thorough pre-bid site assessment.
