6-Tintic Valley Guzzler Helicopter Lift 2026.pdf

This is a Request for Quotes (RFQ) issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing on behalf of the Division of Wildlife Resources for helicopter lift services and ground crew support. The project involves transporting seven new guzzler tanks, apron materials, and fencing materials to multiple drop locations across five wildlife management areas: Levan Wildlife Management Area, Hobble Creek WMA, Timpanogos WMA, Little Sahara Sand Dunes, and Tintic Valley. Three of the five locations must be completed by September 18, 2026, while the remaining two locations are scheduled for completion between November 2 and November 20, 2026. The RFQ requires vendors to submit a single quote with no alternate bids permitted; any exceptions to the specifications must be protested in writing to the Division of Purchasing prior to the closing date.

The procurement will be awarded to the responsive and responsible vendor offering the lowest cost for the specified services. Evaluation will be conducted according to objective criteria outlined in the RFQ and the Utah Procurement Code. The file includes a map identifying helicopter lift staging areas for the Tintic Valley location, which serves as a reference for bidders to understand the project geography and logistics requirements.
