Addendum 1- Evaluation Criteria.pdf

This addendum modifies the evaluation criteria for the Request for Quotes (RFQ) issued by the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians for silvicultural services across three tribal forest tracts totaling approximately 14,455 acres in Oregon. The RFQ seeks qualified contractors to provide vegetation clearing, slash treatment, planting, herbicide application, and miscellaneous services across the Lake Creek Tract (4,957 acres), Smith River Tract (4,933 acres), and Tioga Tract (4,565 acres). Electronic bids must be submitted by April 21, 2026, with all questions due by April 15, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. PST to Kyle Terry, Field Forester, at kterry@ctclusi.org and procurement@ctclusi.org. The contract period extends from the award date through May 1, 2028, with unit prices remaining effective throughout this duration.

The addendum establishes the evaluation criteria on a maximum of 70 possible points, allocated as follows: Proximity to Work Areas (10 points), Capacity and Qualifications (20 points), Relevant Successful Experience (20 points), and Price (20 points). Contractors must document three years of relevant past project experience with owner references and maintain appropriate insurance and licenses. The RFQ encourages participation from certified Indian-owned firms with Indian and tribal preference applied per applicable laws and policies. The potential contract value is $1,000,000.00, though final award values depend on contractor quotes, acreage requiring treatment, scope adjustments, and market rates throughout the contract period. Multiple contractors may be awarded per tract based on demonstrated capability and competitive pricing, and contractors may quote on any or all three tracts.
