Kdfwr-soybean meal

The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources (KDFWR) has issued a Request for Bid (RFB) to establish a one-year contract, with four optional one-year renewal periods, for the supply of Soybean Meal (44-48% protein) in 50 lb paper bags. The RFB specifies the required product details, including delivery terms, and the evaluation criteria, which will be based on pricing (95 points) and delivery time (5 points). Bids are due by March 23, 2023 at 12:00 PM ET, and no site visits or bidder's conferences are required. The contract will be awarded to the responsive and responsible bidder offering the best value, and prices must remain valid for a minimum of 60 calendar days. The Commonwealth reserves the right to add similar items to the contract with the consent of the awarded vendor, and price increases are permitted after the first 12 months with proper justification, while price decreases are required to reflect industry changes.

Kentucky resident bidders and qualified bidders may receive preference points per applicable regulations. The contract opportunity is specific to Elliott County, and there are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The RFB does not provide any information on incumbent vendors or current contractors, or any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The budget range or potential award value is not specified in the RFB.
