West Canyon Shrubs (2).kmz

This is a Invitation for Bid (IFB) document issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing on behalf of the State of Utah Division of Wildlife Resources for shrub seedling planting services across three locations in Utah. The project requires the planting of 38,000 shrub seedlings total: 25,000 seedlings at West Canyon near Eagle Mountain, 6,000 seedlings at West Stansbury in Skull Valley, and 7,000 seedlings at North Sheeprock Mountains near Vernon. Vendors are strongly encouraged to conduct independent site inspections prior to bidding, though a mandatory site visit will not be held. Planting operations must commence on October 20, 2026, with all seedlings planted by November 20, 2026. The contract will be awarded to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor based on the combined cost of all three line items.

The estimated budget for this project is $38,000.00, which equates to approximately one dollar per seedling planted. Vendors must guarantee pricing through project completion. No set-asides, incumbent contractors, or special funding requirements are specified in the procurement documents. The condensed planting window of one month, combined with the geographic dispersion of the three sites across different regions of Utah, represents the primary operational consideration for interested bidders.
