About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration is seeking a contractor to provide fertilizer for the Biloxi National Cemetery through a solicitation (RFQ #36C78625Q50068). The procurement requires a granular fertilizer with a 28-07-14 (N-P-K) analysis and 50% slow-release nitrogen, to be delivered in three discrete shipments during 2025. Contractors may propose alternative fertilizer analyses with prior approval from the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) and District Agronomist. The government will evaluate offers using FAR Part 13 simplified procedures, awarding to the lowest-priced responsible offeror. Key deadlines include January 26, 2025, for submitting questions, and February 4, 2025, at 12:00 PM EST for quote submissions.
The solicitation is specifically set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) under NAICS code 325311 with a size standard of 1,050 employees. The total contract requires 15 tons of fertilizer delivered in approximately 600 50-pound bags across three deliveries: February/March, June/July, and September 2025.

Vendors must be registered in both the System for Award Management (SAM) and VetCert at the time of submission. The contractor will be responsible for providing Safety Data Sheets, application rate information, and handling unloading, stacking, and cleaning of any potential spills during delivery.
