About this opportunity
The USDA Agricultural Research Service is soliciting quotes for a control panel and guidance system for a Valley irrigation system at their Northwest Irrigation and Soils Research Unit in Kimberly, Idaho. This combined synopsis/solicitation requests commercial products including a control panel equipped for variable rate irrigation and a guidance system utilizing real-time kinematic (RTK) GPS technology, specifically designed to be compatible with an existing six-span, linear-move Valley irrigation machine. Vendors must submit quotes on company letterhead that include item descriptions, unit pricing, total price, and remain valid for at least 60 days after receipt. The evaluation will be based on overall Best Value to the Government, with technical capabilities and past performance factors being more important than cost in the selection process. The critical deadline for this opportunity is September 19, 2025, giving potential offerors only three days from the posting date to prepare and submit their quotes.

Performance will take place at the USDA facility located at 3793 N. 3600 E, Kimberly, ID 83341, where the new equipment will be integrated with the existing Valley linear irrigation system.
