This is an Evaluation Score Matrix document used by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) to assess bids submitted for ITB #9243, Invasive Species Treatment at Bandon State Natural Area. The evaluation involved two assessors scoring proposals across multiple criteria including equipment specifications (new and unused condition, white color, extended cab, hydraulically powered outriggers and crane extensions, and 4x4 drivetrain on 19.5 chassis), price, and delivery timeline capability. The procurement sought contractors to perform mechanical and herbicide-based invasive plant management across approximately 20 acres at the Bandon State Natural Area in Coos County, Oregon, with specific tasks including mechanical mowing and mulching of gorse patches and spot spraying of European beachgrass and gorse resprouts. Tasks 2 and 3 were required to be completed by March 10, 2023, and Task 4 by December 31, 2023, with bids due on February 7, 2023, at 2:00 pm Pacific Time and an anticipated award date of February 13, 2023.

The evaluation matrix shows multiple vendors submitted proposals, with Nelson Turn-Key Build achieving the highest score of 60.00 for their complete turn-key build option (maximum score 60) and ranking first. Altec Turn-Key Build scored 68.90 on technical criteria but was ranked as unable to meet the delivery timeline. Service body-only options from Nelson and Knapheide scored lower with maximum scores of 40, with Nelson Service Body options achieving scores of 50.00 and Knapheide options scoring 48.70. The procurement required prevailing wage rate compliance per the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries, specific insurance coverage, and compliance with Oregon preferences for goods manufactured or produced in-state and from recycled materials. The contract was structured as a one-time service agreement with a not-to-exceed compensation amount, with Green Ridge Resources identified as the apparent successful bidder with a low bid of $37,000.00.
