About this opportunity

The Georgia Department of Agriculture issued an eRFP on February 24, 2023 to establish a Memorandum of Agreement with a qualified supplier for official sampling of hemp and hemp products produced by licensed Georgia hemp growers and permitted Georgia hemp processors, with proposals due March 15, 2023.

A critical eligibility restriction applies: the supplier cannot be a licensed hemp grower, a permitted hemp processor, or hold a beneficial financial interest in either. This disqualification filters the competitive field to independent testing and sampling service providers without direct involvement in the hemp supply chain.

The contract was structured as a fixed-amount Memorandum of Agreement at no cost to the state, meaning the awardee bears all service delivery costs. GEM Testing and Extraction Labs Corporated was selected as the successful offeror and awarded the contract on April 14, 2023 under Issuing Officer Anthony Reed.

No questions were posed during the RFP cycle. Suppliers with technical questions regarding the Team Georgia Marketplace platform could contact the DOAS Customer Service Help Desk at 404-657-6000 (Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., excluding state holidays and closures) or email ProcurementHelp@doas.ga.gov. Protests must be submitted electronically to doas.protests@doas.ga.gov in accordance with the Georgia Procurement Manual and State Purchasing Act.
