About this opportunity
The Wyoming Department of Administration & Information Purchasing Section is seeking bids for the Cutler Draw Timber Stand Improvement (TSI) project in Campbell County, Wyoming. The procurement involves thinning approximately 342 acres of ponderosa pine forest across four treatment units, with the primary objectives of improving forest health, increasing tree vigor, and reducing crown fire risk. Contractors will be responsible for mastication of slash in accessible areas with less than 50% slope, and lopping and scattering slash in steeper terrain. The project requires comprehensive tree stand treatment services, including careful tree selection, removal criteria, slash management, and fire prevention protocols. A mandatory pre-bid site inspection is scheduled for November 22, 2024, at 10:00 AM, with all questions to be submitted through the Public Purchase online system by December 3, 2024. Bids are due by 2:00 PM on December 10, 2024, and must be submitted through the online bidding system with pricing quoted on a per-acre basis. The contract is set to expire on April 30, 2026, with potential for additional acres to be awarded if funding becomes available.
The procurement appears to provide preference to Wyoming resident businesses, with the contract award contingent upon verification of the bidder's Resident Certification Number. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned in the documents. The state reserves the right to reject any or all bids and may negotiate with the second most responsible bidder if the lowest bidder fails to reach an agreement. While no specific budget range was disclosed, the contract allows for potential price adjustments of up to 10% for additional acres. Payment will be made upon completion of each project unit, with the successful bidder required to execute a formal contract with the State of Wyoming. Contractors must provide all necessary labor, equipment, supplies, and materials to complete the TSI treatment, demonstrating capabilities in forest management, tree thinning, and adherence to strict environmental and safety protocols.
