23WM-LGF Pheasant Starter Feed 15/16

The Pennsylvania Game Commission's Bureau of Wildlife Management, specifically the Loyalsock Game Farm located in Montoursville, Lycoming County, is soliciting electronic bids for pheasant starter feed through a state and local contract opportunity. The procurement targets feed specifically designed for starting and brooding pheasants at their game farm facility located at 136 Game Farm Road. The contract opportunity, identified as 23WM-LGF Pheasant Starter Feed 15/16, was posted on March 21, 2016, with a bid submission deadline of April 6, 2016. The solicitation appears to be focused on acquiring specialized nutritional feed for game bird cultivation, with the primary objective of supporting the game farm's pheasant breeding and management operations. The bid requires vendors to provide detailed nutritional specifications for the game bird feed, with a comprehensive understanding of avian nutritional requirements being a likely critical evaluation criterion.

While the provided documentation does not explicitly detail set-aside designations or specific vendor restrictions, the contract appears to be a standard state procurement opportunity open to qualified agricultural or animal feed suppliers. The attached bid document, "bid game bird nutrient sheet.pdf", suggests that potential bidders must demonstrate technical competence in providing specialized game bird nutrition products. The contract term is anticipated to be one year, with potential options for renewal. No specific budget range or award value was explicitly stated in the available documentation. The procurement is jurisdictionally associated with Luzerne County and the Mount Aetna CDP, though the actual game farm is located in Lycoming County. Interested vendors would need to carefully review the nutritional specifications and submit precise pricing and product details to be considered for this state-level contract opportunity.
