LGF Game Bird Starter Feed

The Pennsylvania Game Commission is soliciting competitive bids for Game Bird Starter Feed, specifically seeking crumbles and pellets for a procurement period from April 13 through July 30, 2015. The feed requirements are precise, including crumbles with no whole pellets and 0% retention on a 10 mesh screen, and pellets sized at 5/32". Delivery specifications mandate unloading on-site using a vehicle equipped with an auger, with delivery quantities ranging between 12-24 ton lots. The solicitation emphasizes that feed and medication quantities are estimates, and actual ordered amounts may vary significantly from the initial projections. The contract opportunity is geographically centered in Lycoming County, specifically within the Morrisdale Census Designated Place (CDP), with a state contract opportunity identification number of 66d5e38d323913d9c80abfba. The bid was originally posted on March 27, 2015, with proposals due by April 9, 2015, indicating a relatively tight submission window of approximately two weeks.

The procurement does not explicitly outline set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations based on the provided documentation. The attached government file (game bird nutrient spec.pdf) suggests detailed nutrient specifications will guide vendor selection, implying technical competence and ability to meet precise feed formulation requirements will be critical evaluation criteria. While specific award values are not disclosed, the volume of feed (12-24 ton lots) indicates a potentially substantial contract. No incumbent vendor is identified in the available materials, and there are no explicit mentions of integration requirements with existing infrastructure or technology. The procurement appears straightforward, focusing primarily on the technical specifications of game bird starter feed and the logistical requirements for delivery. Potential bidders should carefully review the attached nutrient specification document to ensure complete compliance with the Pennsylvania Game Commission's exacting standards.
