This document is an Invitation to Bid (ITB) from the Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife (ODFW) for the collection and growing of native shrubs and forbs for the Mule Deer Initiative (MDI) project in the White River area. The contract will involve the collection of seed from various native species, such as bitterbrush, sagebrush, serviceberry, and various buckwheat and clover species, and the subsequent growing-out of those plants for future use in habitat restoration efforts. The ITB specifies the approximate quantities for each species required. Bids are due by a specific deadline, and the contract term is expected to run from the award date through November 30, 2024, with a potential two-year extension.
The ITB provides details on pricing, including a price proposal form for bidders to complete. It also includes requirements related to the use of certified disadvantaged business enterprises, and references federal debarment and suspension regulations. The contract will be awarded to the responsive and responsible bidder whose bid is most advantageous to ODFW, based on the evaluation criteria outlined in the ITB.
