271701 - Lawn Care - Washington Co Health Dept

Washington County Health Department in Alabama is requesting proposals for lawn care services under a Quick Quote solicitation, with proposals due September 23, 2026 and a mandatory site visit required prior to submission.

Suppliers must be registered in Alabama Buys and submit responses electronically through that platform. Compliance certifications are mandatory: Alabama state and local sales tax registration, E-Verify enrollment for all employees working in Alabama, and compliance with the Beason-Hammon Alabama Taxpayer and Citizen Protection Act (federal immigration law). The State reserves the right to conduct cost realism and price reasonableness analyses on all bids.

The contract carries a total cost ceiling of $25,000 including the original agreement and any renewals, or a five-year term from the effective date, whichever is shorter. The resulting contract may be renewed annually by written agreement of both parties. Price escalation requests may be considered if material, labor, or other contract components increase significantly, provided proposed increases do not exceed increases in industry-specific price indices or the Consumer Price Index and cannot exceed 5 percent of annual contract cost.

Payment will be made electronically through state-issued credit cards, P-cards, or EFT at no additional cost to the State. All contracts are governed by Alabama law with exclusive venue in Montgomery. The State is exempt from sales tax and will not indemnify suppliers.
