About this opportunity

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is seeking bids for a portable toilet service contract covering six sites across Cook, Lake, and St. Louis Counties. The procurement involves providing, delivering, setting up, servicing, pumping, maintaining, and removing portable toilets, including both standard and ADA-accessible units, for the 2024-2025 season. Contractors must supply all labor, equipment, materials, tools, transportation, and incidentals necessary to meet the project specifications. The service period runs from May through September, with an estimated 42-48 service trips per site over the two-year contract period. Evaluation criteria include lowest responsible vendor meeting all specifications, with the state reserving the right to award items separately or by total. Key submission requirements include electronic submission through the Swift Portal by April 16, 2024, and completion of the attached Excel Price Schedule. The project supervisor is Kevin Johnson, who can be contacted at (218) 834-1431 for any questions. Contractors must include all costs in their unit pricing, including labor, materials, transportation, equipment, sales tax, and use tax.

The solicitation does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations, but it does indicate that the state will consider resident vendor status and veteran-owned small business preferences during evaluation. Potential bidders must provide proof of insurance and may offer prompt payment discounts. While no incumbent vendor is mentioned, the contract prohibits subcontracting and requires strict compliance with state laws and regulations. Bidders are encouraged to visit the service sites prior to submission and must comply with various state requirements. The contract does not specify a precise budget range, but vendors will be compensated based on their submitted unit prices for weekly and as-needed portable toilet services. Contractors needing assistance with registration or response submission can contact the Contractor Assistance Help Desk at 651-201-8100, Option 1. The DNR will make the final determination on whether vendors meet the specified requirements, with non-compliant responses being considered non-responsive and potentially rejected.
