About this opportunity

The City of Warren in Macomb County, Michigan is seeking competitive bids for a tree furnishing and planting project through Invitation to Bid ITB-W-1715, targeting the Department of Public Works (DPW). The procurement involves supplying and installing 110 trees across five distinct varieties: 20 Autumn Blaze Maple Trees, 20 Crimson King Maple Trees, 20 Male Ginkgo Trees, 40 Brandywine Red Maple Trees, and 10 American Hornbeam Trees. Bidders must submit electronic proposals through the BidNet (MITN) Procurement System by 12:30 PM on October 29, 2025, with a public bid opening via Zoom at 1:00 PM EST the same day. All tree plantings must be completed by December 1, 2025, with a mandatory one-year maintenance period requiring ongoing watering, staking, and ensuring tree health. Vendor qualifications include providing references, maintaining comprehensive insurance coverage of $2,000,000 in umbrella liability, and adhering to specific planting specifications. The trees must be #1 grade, 2-3 inches in diameter, 8-12 feet tall, and planted in road right-of-way boulevards. Evaluation criteria will include price, product availability, location, and quality, with the City reserving the right to award all line items, make no award, or award on an individual line item basis.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned in the procurement documents. The contractor will be responsible for extensive documentation, including electronic photographic evidence of each planting site before, immediately after, and one year after planting, with a requirement to replace any trees that are 25% dead or unhealthy at the end of the warranty period. While no incumbent vendor was identified, the bid requires a comprehensive pricing approach with unit prices for furnishing, installing, and maintaining each tree type. The procurement appears to be a standard municipal landscape enhancement project without a specified total contract value, but the scope involves 110 trees across multiple varieties. Vendors must ensure precise compliance with the City of Warren's detailed planting and maintenance specifications, with potential future opportunities contingent on successful performance and tree survival rates during the one-year maintenance period.
