Attachment_1_-_Pricing_Workbook_35714.xlsx

This is a Pricing Workbook attachment for an Invitation For Bid (IFB) issued by the California Department of General Services, Procurement Division (DGS-PD) to establish a statewide contract for herbicides and insecticides. The solicitation covers six distinct bidding groups organized by geographic region (Northern and Central/Southern) and product type (Brand and Generic), with each group containing identical line items spanning herbicides, insecticides, rodenticides, adjuvants, dyes, containers, and support services. The contract term is two years with three optional one-year extensions. Products requested include a comprehensive range of herbicide formulations (fluazifop, glyphosate, triclopyr, and numerous others), insecticides (cyfluthrin, imidacloprid, permethrin), aquatic herbicides (fluridone-based products), adjuvants and surfactants, dye colorants, returnable containers with Micromatic valves, blending services, forklift and operator services, pest control advisor services, and container take-back services. Line items are numbered sequentially across all six groups (101-185 for Group 1 through 601-685 for Group 6), with quantities varying significantly by product and region, ranging from 10 units to 12,800 units.

The pricing workbook requires bidders to complete only the yellow input cells for each line item, submitting the catalog list price (MSRP), contract discount percentage, per-unit contract price, and extended evaluation price (quantity multiplied by unit price). The workbook includes mandatory columns for supplier SKU numbers, manufacturer information, brand names, California Department of Pesticide Registration numbers, EPA Registration numbers, San Francisco Hazard Tier Ratings from the Reduced-Risk Pesticide List 2025, and OMRI Certified Products List designations. The document currently displays error codes and zero values, indicating that bidders have not yet completed pricing submissions. Award will be made by group rather than individual line items, and the contract is mandatory for use by all California state departments while remaining available to local governmental agencies. All state departments utilizing the contract will purchase pesticide products through the selected vendor(s) for their respective regions.
