About this opportunity

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is issuing a Request for Bid (RFB) for the Walk In Access Boundary Posting project (solicitation #2025-006), focused on sign placement for Walk-In Access sites located 75-250 miles from St. Cloud, MN. The procurement requires a contractor to post signs along identified site boundaries, with specifications of one sign every 500 feet and two signs identifying corners. All materials will be supplied by the DNR and available for pickup at the Marshall, MN Wildlife office. Key deliverables include physically posting the signs and recording boundary sign locations via GPS, with contractors required to submit GPS location data back to the DNR. The solicitation requires electronic submission through the Swift Portal, with bids due by August 2, 2024, and award will be made to the lowest responsible vendor meeting all specifications. Evaluation criteria include compliance with project requirements, with the DNR serving as the final determiner of vendor qualification. Contractors needing assistance with registration or submission can contact the Contractor Assistance Help Desk at 651-201-8100, Option 1.

The contract opportunity appears open to all qualified vendors, with no specific set-aside designations explicitly highlighted. The State of Minnesota will consider preferences for Minnesota resident vendors and veteran-owned small businesses, though these are not strict exclusionary criteria. No incumbent vendors are identified in the documentation. The project will be funded through federal funds obtained via the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, which may impose additional compliance requirements. While no specific budget range is detailed, the unit price must comprehensively include all associated costs such as labor, materials, tools, transportation, equipment, sales tax, and use tax. Contractors will be required to meet certain insurance requirements and potentially offer prompt payment discounts. The contract term runs from the Notice to Proceed through August 30, 2024, with the State reserving the right to award items separately, by grouping, or by total, depending on what is most advantageous to the state.
