About this opportunity

Hays County, Texas, has issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB 2026-B03) for comprehensive Cemetery Maintenance services across 14 different cemeteries totaling approximately 27.05 acres. The solicitation seeks a contractor to provide grounds maintenance including mowing, trimming, herbicide application, trash removal, and related services for cemeteries located in Buda, San Marcos, and Kyle. The contract requires the successful bidder to perform maintenance Monday through Saturday between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m., with specific attention to wildflower preservation and holiday considerations. The initial contract term is one year, with the option to renew for four additional one-year periods, potentially extending the total contract duration to five years. Bidders must provide pricing per site, including all labor, equipment, tools, materials, and chemicals necessary for maintenance. The bid is due on December 4, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. local time, with submissions accepted electronically through BidNet Direct or as hard copies. Evaluation will be based on unit pricing per site and overall best value to the county.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Contractors must provide proof of insurance and comply with local and federal regulations, including ethics and non-discrimination requirements. Additional maintenance services beyond the standard scope will be billed on a per man-hour basis, with pricing to remain firm for the initial contract term and potential price adjustments allowed after the first year based on inflation and operating costs, subject to county approval. The county is exempt from federal excise and state sales taxes. While no incumbent vendor is mentioned, the contract allows for flexible monthly service coordination, with the County Representative determining specific cemeteries to be maintained each month. Billing will occur only for actual work completed, with services to be provided upon request across the 14 identified cemetery locations. The solicitation suggests a comprehensive maintenance approach that balances historical preservation with practical grounds management.
