Each RFQ will cover a one-time, firm-fixed-price purchase order for these aerial insecticide application services. The general requirements are outlined in the attached Statement of Work, which covers specifications for aircraft, pilots, insecticides, application rates, and other technical details. Interested contractors are responsible for monitoring the contracting opportunity website for the specific RFQ postings that will provide additional details.
