Lawn Services DFO

The State of Alabama Office of the Chief Procurement Officer is soliciting quotes for lawn services through a Quick Quote mechanism, with responses due September 16, 2026.

Suppliers must register in Alabama Buys and submit responses electronically. All suppliers employing one or more employees within Alabama must provide E-Verify program enrollment verification prior to award or face bid rejection. Foreign entities must register with the Alabama Secretary of State before transacting business in the state.

The contract resulting from this quote may be renewed annually by written agreement, up to a total contract cost not to exceed $25,000 including the original agreement and any subsequent renewals, or a total time period of five years from the effective date, whichever comes first. Pricing is subject to analysis based on cost realism and price reasonableness at the sole discretion of the Chief Procurement Officer. Price escalation requests may be considered if material, labor, or other contract components significantly increase through no fault of the supplier, provided increases do not exceed industry-specific price index or Consumer Price Index increases during the same period and do not exceed 5 percent of annual contract cost.

Suppliers must acknowledge receipt of the solicitation and all amendments, confirm compliance with all terms and conditions, and certify they have not engaged in collusion. The contract is governed by Alabama law with sole venue in Montgomery, and disputes shall be resolved through negotiation or non-binding alternative dispute resolution including mediation. The State of Alabama is exempt from sales tax, and suppliers must comply with all federal immigration laws and the Beason-Hammon Alabama Taxpayer and Citizen Protection Act.

Specific service scope, frequency, acreage, equipment specifications, and performance locations are not detailed in the posted materials.
