About this opportunity

Fort Valley State University is soliciting statements of qualifications from hemp research collaboration suppliers via eRFQC, with submissions due August 17, 2020. This RFQc does not result in contract award but instead establishes a qualified-supplier list for a future RFP to select a single collaboration partner.

The University, designated under Georgia's Hope Act (HB 324) to conduct hemp research, seeks partners to support its research program on industrial hemp growth, processing, uses, and variety development. The program aligns with the Georgia Hemp Farming Act (HB 213) and supports the University's educational, teaching, and research mission while providing information to serve the practical needs of farmers.
