About this opportunity
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is seeking bids for the installation of a groundwater observation well at the John Murtaugh Memorial Wildlife Management Area near Red Wing in Goodhue County. The project, designated as Solicitation #2024-732, requires a licensed well contractor to legally install and complete one environmental groundwater monitoring well. Specific deliverables include drilling a borehole, installing 4-inch diameter steel casing, grouting the annular space, developing the well, and performing waste management and site restoration. Contractors must be registered and licensed with the Minnesota Department of Health as a Well Contractor, with the primary evaluation criteria focusing on the lowest responsible vendor meeting all specifications and terms. The solicitation requires electronic submission through the SWIFT Portal by May 2, 2024, with a recommended site visit prior to bidding. All responses must include a completed Price Schedule in Excel format, with unit prices that encompass all project costs including labor, materials, tools, transportation, equipment, sales tax, and use tax. The project must be completed by November 1, 2024, and the State reserves the right to award the contract by item, group, or total based on what is most advantageous.
There are no specific set-aside designations mentioned in the solicitation documents, and no restrictions are placed on the types of organizations that can respond to the bid. The documents do not reference any incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure requiring integration. While a Solicitation Bond form is included that requires a 5% bid amount as security, there is no explicit mention of budget ranges or specific award values. No veteran-owned or disadvantaged business enterprise preferences are prominently highlighted, though the solicitation notes that veteran-owned small business preferences may apply if proper documentation is provided. The project appears to be a straightforward procurement for a single environmental well installation, with no indication of potential contract renewals or future extensions. Contractors will need to ensure full compliance with all specifications, including proper well installation techniques, health and safety regulations, and comprehensive site restoration requirements.
