About this opportunity

The U.S. Embassy in Libreville, Gabon, is seeking landscaping services for embassy grounds through a fixed-price contract. The solicitation, numbered 19GB5024Q0003, requires a comprehensive gardening and landscape maintenance service covering designated spaces at the embassy. Contractors must provide complete services including lawn care, pruning, leaf removal, and pest control, with a base year contract and four potential one-year option periods. All potential bidders must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database prior to quote submission, and the government may award the contract based on initial offers without further discussion. Key dates include a pre-quotation conference held on September 17, 2024, with quotations originally due by October 21, 2024, though subsequent amendments have extended the closing date to December 13, 2024, at 1:00 p.m. local time.

The solicitation does not have a specific small business set-aside designation, and no incumbent contractor is mentioned in the documents. Electronic submissions are permitted, but quotes must be separated into distinct technical and financial files, with a maximum email size of 30KB. While specific award value ranges are not disclosed, the contract covers landscaping services for multiple embassy locations including the Chief of Mission Residence, Deputy Chief of Mission Residence, and chancery grounds. The performance period includes a base year with potential extensions, and contractors will be responsible for maintaining approximately 20,000 square meters of landscaped area. Additional requirements include developing a detailed Ground Maintenance Plan, using eco-friendly products, and maintaining irrigation systems across the embassy's properties in Libreville.
