About this file
This is Amendment 1 to a solicitation issued by the South Carolina Department of Parks, Recreation & Tourism (SCPRT) for grounds maintenance services at the North Augusta Welcome Center. The solicitation seeks a qualified contractor to provide comprehensive landscaping and grounds maintenance services under a monthly fixed-price contract. Services include mowing, pruning, fertilization, weed control, irrigation system monitoring, and maintenance of interstate shoulders and signage areas in coordination with the South Carolina Department of Transportation. A pre-bid conference is scheduled for October 20, 2025, at 1:30 PM at the North Augusta Welcome Center located at the SC/GA Border on I-20 in North Augusta, SC 29841. Offers must be submitted online by October 23, 2025, at 3:00 PM, with questions due by October 21, 2025, at 12:00 PM. Award will be posted on October 24, 2025. The contract term is one year with four optional one-year renewals, potentially extending to five years total. Contractors must maintain vegetation height between 2-4 inches, use licensed pesticide applicators, and submit monthly service reports.
Amendment 1 clarifies that a $5,000 bid bond issued by a South Carolina-licensed surety or a certified check must be submitted with the proposal, not after award. Bidders must possess a minimum of five years of commercial landscaping experience and provide three professional references. The solicitation includes provisions for South Carolina Resident Contractor and Subcontractor Preferences, which may provide additional consideration for local businesses. The contract allows for potential landscaping improvements up to $50,000 over the contract term, with the selected contractor responsible for maintaining improvements. Payment is contingent upon satisfactory completion of specified maintenance tasks. Offerors must acknowledge receipt of this amendment by signing and returning it, identifying the amendment number and date, submitting a letter, or submitting a bid indicating receipt of the amendment.
