Combine Lease

Georgia Correctional Industries (GCI) is seeking to establish a lease agreement for a combine and headers equipment to be delivered to Rogers Farm located at 2442 Hwy 147 in Reidsville, GA. The procurement is specifically for a 1-year lease with two potential one-year renewal options, targeting agricultural equipment for use within the state's correctional facility agricultural operations. The contract opportunity, identified by State Local Contract Opportunity ID 674463edf35e25ef32008110, was posted on November 21, 2024, with proposals due by December 5, 2024. The primary deliverable is the leasing of combine and headers equipment, which suggests GCI requires specialized agricultural machinery for farming operations within their correctional facilities. Potential vendors must be prepared to provide high-quality, functional agricultural equipment that meets the specific requirements of the Rogers Farm location. While specific evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed, typical considerations would likely include equipment condition, lease terms, pricing, maintenance capabilities, and overall equipment suitability for correctional agricultural programs.

The contract opportunity is located within Terrell County, Georgia, with a FIPS Code of 13273, and does not explicitly indicate any specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are mentioned in the available information. The procurement appears to be open to standard agricultural equipment leasing vendors with capabilities to support state correctional facility agricultural operations. While no specific budget range or award value is provided, agricultural equipment leases can typically range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars annually, depending on equipment type and condition. The two potential one-year renewal options suggest GCI is seeking a long-term, reliable equipment leasing partnership that can consistently support their agricultural programming needs. Interested vendors should carefully review the full solicitation details and prepare comprehensive proposals that demonstrate their ability to meet the specific equipment leasing requirements of Georgia Correctional Industries.
