This document is an Invitation for Bid (IFB) issued by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) for Herbicide Application and Mowing Services across multiple districts in Texas. The contract will be for a base term of one year with the option to renew for up to four additional one-year terms. Bids are due by August 24, 2023, and a pre-bid conference is scheduled for August 10, 2023. The contract is expected to be awarded by October 1, 2023.

The pricing structure will be based on fixed unit rates for herbicide application and mowing services, and the contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. There are no set-asides or preferences mentioned in the IFB. However, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) has a separate solicitation that requires the completion of a HUB Subcontracting Plan (HSP) with specific HUB participation goals for various contract categories. The total estimated value of the TxDOT contract over the initial one-year term is $9,000,000, with funding provided through TxDOT's maintenance budget.
