About this opportunity
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is seeking bids for a fence construction project at the Prairie Smoke Dunes Scientific and Natural Area (SNA) located approximately 4 miles south of Fertile, MN. The procurement involves removing and disposing of existing fence and constructing approximately 32,130 linear feet of perimeter fence. Bidders must provide all necessary labor, equipment, materials, tools, transportation, and incidentals to complete the project. Qualification requirements mandate that prime contractors must have completed at least two similar fence construction or metal fabrication projects since July 2019, with each project valued at $50,000 or more. The Request for Bid (RFB) requires electronic submission through the Swift Portal by July 10, 2024, with a site visit available by contacting Project Supervisor Tyler Larson at 218-616-4061. The project must be completed by March 15, 2025, and award will be made to the lowest responsible vendor meeting all specifications and terms. Evaluation criteria include compliance with solicitation requirements, with non-responsive bids subject to automatic rejection.
The solicitation includes some potential preferences, specifically noting that veteran-owned small businesses may be eligible for a 12% preference. A 5% solicitation security is required for responses exceeding $50,000. The contract explicitly prohibits subcontracting in whole or part, which limits potential partnership arrangements. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged businesses are mentioned beyond the veteran-owned business preference. Contractors with contract terminations for cause or willful/repeated OSHA safety citations within the past 36 months will be disqualified. While a specific budget range is not provided, the requirement for projects of $50,000 or more suggests a substantial contract value. The State of Minnesota reserves the right to award items separately, by grouping, or by total, depending on what is most advantageous to the state.
