About this opportunity
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is seeking a vendor to provide meeting space, lodging, meals, and refreshments for the LAM All Staff conference to be held in either Scott or Goodhue County on October 9-10 or October 23-24, 2024. The procurement requires a comprehensive event solution for an estimated 108 attendees, including meeting rooms with audio-visual equipment, accommodation, catering, and related conference services. Vendors must submit detailed responses electronically through the SWIFT portal by May 29, 2024, at 2:00 PM Central Time, with the DNR serving as the final arbiter of vendor specification compliance. The solicitation requires completion of a detailed Price Schedule (Exhibit D) outlining specific pricing for rooms, meals, shuttle services, and other conference requirements. Evaluation criteria will focus on the vendor's ability to meet technical specifications, provide a suitable venue within the designated county, and offer competitive pricing for all required conference elements.
The DNR has incorporated several set-aside and preference provisions for this procurement, specifically targeting Minnesota-based small businesses, minority-owned businesses, women-owned businesses, businesses owned by persons with disabilities, veteran-owned businesses, and businesses located in economically disadvantaged counties. Certified veteran-owned small businesses may receive a 6% preference in the evaluation process. The contract will be effective from June 1, 2024, through December 31, 2024, with the DNR issuing only one purchase order per vendor. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly detailed, the solicitation indicates that payment will be made in full after all items have been received and approved, with no provisions for partial payments. The state reserves the right to inspect facilities prior to award and may reject responses based on factors such as facility condition, lack of dedicated space, or failure to meet technical requirements.
