About this opportunity

Jackson County and the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife are seeking a contractor for the Winter Range Slash and Pile Project through a competitive bid process. The project involves cutting and piling trees and shrubs less than 7 inches in diameter across approximately 95 acres near Brownsboro, Oregon, with the primary objectives of increasing forb cover and improving the nutritive value of shrub vegetation in the area. A mandatory site visit is scheduled for February 18, 2022, at 10:00 AM, and sealed bids are due by February 24, 2022, at 2:00 PM Pacific Time. Bidders must have been in business for a minimum of 5 years and must submit three references for similar projects performed within the last 5 years. The evaluation criteria will focus on selecting the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with a stated preference for vendors located in Central Oregon. The anticipated contract will commence after final signature, with all work to be completed by March 31st.

While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned in the documentation, the project has a total budget of $62,000 and anticipates awarding a single contract to the selected vendor. The procurement is open to qualified contractors with demonstrated experience in vegetation management and land restoration projects. No incumbent vendors are identified in the provided materials, and no specific infrastructure or technology integration requirements are outlined. The project is designed to improve big-game habitat by reducing overgrown understory vegetation and enhancing the overall ecological condition of the winter range area. Interested bidders should carefully review the Invitation to Bid (ITB) document and be prepared to meet the specified qualifications and project requirements.

Opportunity text

In the absence of natural fire, landscapes can become overgrown with a heavy understory of shrubs such as ceanothus. This shrub vegetation is now over-mature and of low nutritional value. We propose to increase forb cover and improve nutritive value of shrub vegetation by cutting and piling trees and shrubs less than 7 inches in diameter on approximately 95 acres near Brownsboro, OR.
