About this file
This document is a Request for Quotation (RFQ) issued by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources for a pollinator seed mix project. The state seeks a pre-mixed seed combination to plant the remaining 20 acres of upland habitat to complete prairie restoration at Cedar Swamp Wildlife Conservation Area. The seed mixture consists of three components—grasses, filler (rice hulls), and forbs/legumes—with specifications detailed in an accompanying spreadsheet showing common names, scientific names, and Pure Live Seed (PLS) percentages by pound per acre. The total PLS will be approximately 78 pounds, though bulk weight will be higher due to nonliving seed, weed seed, and inert materials. All bids must be submitted by May 5, 2026, at 11:00 AM EDT via email to asimonton@dnr.in.gov, fax to (317) 972-3275, or mail to the specified address. Questions must be submitted by April 28, 2026, at 11:00 AM. The seed is to be delivered to Pigeon River Fish and Wildlife Area in Howe, Indiana.
Bidders must include all delivery fees in their total quoted price. Quoted prices must remain valid for thirty (30) calendar days following the response due date in compliance with Indiana State Law. The solicitation is not eligible for electronic submission through the supplier portal, and a completed bid package must be submitted by the deadline. The event is formatted as a single-line quotation with a 100 percent weighting on the bid price, which is a required response field. No set-asides, incumbent information, or contract renewal options are referenced in this RFQ.
