About this file
This document is a Request for Bid (RFP) issued by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) for the purchase of fertilizer to be delivered to the Badoura Nursery in Akeley, Minnesota. The solicitation seeks 240 50-pound bags of 19-19-19 Fertilizer with ESN Slow Release, 240 50-pound bags of Environmentally Smart Nitrogen, and 80 50-pound bags of Ammonium Sulfate fertilizer. The bid response deadline is March 19, 2025, at 2:00 PM CT, with a required delivery date of March 24, 2025. Bidders must submit their responses through the Supplier Portal, and questions must be submitted in writing to the contact person, Jeeneng Vang, by the specified deadline.
The solicitation includes provisions for small business participation and diversity, encouraging Minnesota-based businesses and those owned by minorities, women, veterans, or located in economically disadvantaged counties to participate. Bidders are required to register as either a bidder or supplier to be eligible, and the event allows for potential certification in the state's Small Business Procurement Program. The contract appears to be a straightforward purchase agreement with specific quantity requirements for different types of fertilizer, to be delivered to a single location via ground shipping. Pricing will be determined through the bidding process, with vendors required to enter their proposed prices for each line item in the SWIFT system.
