Cancellation Notice- signed

This is a Cancellation Notice issued by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR) for a Request for Quotes (RFQ) solicitation regarding cured oyster shells. The solicitation (46200-DNR0000644) was originally posted on August 30, 2021, with Issuing Officer Jennifer Polk overseeing the procurement. The RFQ sought to establish a purchase of cured oyster shells for the Coastal Resource Division, with the shells designated for deployment along permitted oyster restoration areas of Georgia's coastline. The solicitation was cancelled on October 19, 2021, due to administrative errors identified by the State Entity.

The State of Georgia intends to conduct a new solicitation and will require all suppliers to respond to new bid forms and requirements for consideration of award. Materials submitted under the current (cancelled) solicitation will remain closed pending the successful rebid of the goods and services. Upon the Notice of Intent to Award for the subsequent solicitation, all records will be made available in accordance with Section I.6 of the Georgia Procurement Manual regarding public access to procurement information. Award under the original solicitation was to be made to the Lowest Responsive and Responsible Bidder meeting all mandatory specifications. Prospective bidders must register in TEAM GEORGIA MARKETPLACE to access the complete RFQ, attachments, and submit bids electronically.
