About this file

This procurement plan document, dated June 1, 2026, is an interoffice memorandum from the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) outlining the procurement strategy for Invitation for Bid (IFB) 250406 for Tree Maintenance and Pruning Services. The procurement seeks qualified contractors to provide tree maintenance and pruning services on an as-needed basis. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder and will be structured as a two-year term agreement with a budget of $200,000 for the initial term.

The contract will be structured as a time and expense agreement with a firm-fixed hourly rate, as services are required on an as-needed basis rather than at fixed quantities. Prevailing wages are required for this contract, which is funded through Local Measure M sources. The procurement plan indicates that an independent cost estimate has been received and a requisition (R000690) has been submitted. Evaluation will be based solely on cost (100% weight), with no qualifications, staffing, or work plan scoring components. The document does not indicate a prevailing wage set-aside percentage, liquidated damages clause, or retention requirements, though these elements are referenced in the procurement plan template.
