About this opportunity
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is seeking bids for portable restroom services across seven counties, including Beltrami County, for public water access sites and trailheads during the 2025 seasonal period from May 4 to October 4. The procurement involves providing, delivering, servicing, and maintaining portable toilets, with 13 distinct bid groups covering approximately 91 portable toilets across 83 locations. Vendors must possess a current Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) License and submit a comprehensive bid package including a completed Price Schedule in Excel format and a Contractor Qualification Form. The solicitation requires weekly servicing of units, which includes pumping, disinfecting, restocking supplies, and maintaining units in good condition. Bidders can submit proposals for one, some, or all bid groups, but must provide per-service bid prices for all sites within any group they wish to bid on. The electronic bid submission deadline is March 25, 2025, at 2:00 PM, with all responses required to be submitted through the Swift Portal. Award will be made to the lowest responsible vendor meeting all specifications, with the state reserving the right to award items separately or by grouping.
The DNR demonstrates a commitment to diversity and inclusion, offering potential opportunities for businesses owned by minorities, women, veterans, and individuals with substantial physical disabilities. While no specific set-aside percentages are explicitly stated, the solicitation indicates a preference for diverse business participation. The procurement allows for multiple vendors to be awarded contracts across different bid groups, providing flexibility for small and mid-sized contractors. Some locations require ADA-compliant units, emphasizing accessibility considerations. The project includes specific provisions for invasive species prevention and polluter habitat protection, suggesting environmental consciousness in the contract requirements. Interested vendors can contact the Project Manager, David Schotzo, at 218-766-7529 for additional information or to arrange a site visit. Though a specific budget range is not provided, the comprehensive nature of the service requirement suggests a substantial contract value covering equipment rental, servicing, transportation, labor, and associated administrative costs for a 22-week period across multiple counties.
