Livestock Moveable Shelters

Auburn University is seeking sealed bids for sixteen moveable livestock shelters through a competitive procurement process (Bid No. AU-2024-0000742) for its North Auburn Equine Unit. The specific requirements call for 12' x 24' oversized shelters designed exclusively for draft horses, with precise height specifications of 10' in the front and 8' in the back. These shelters must be constructed using 29-gauge metal for the roof and three sides, include metal trim, and be mounted on skids for mobility. The procurement includes three distinct line items: the shelters themselves, full assembly, and delivery. Vendors must submit proposals through the JAGGAER Sourcing Event Portal by February 7, 2024, at 10:30 AM CST, with commodity codes 21101900 and 10131500 governing the procurement. Key administrative requirements include submitting a completed and notarized vendor disclosure statement, providing E-Verify documentation, and complying with Alabama state bid laws.

The solicitation appears open to multiple types of vendors, with no specific set-aside designations mentioned. The bid allows for potential usage by other eligible entities including Auburn University at Montgomery and the Alabama Cooperative Extension System. Payment terms are established at 0% 0, Net 30, and Auburn University reserves the right to award the contract in whole or part based on the best interests of the institution. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the comprehensive technical specifications suggest a professionally scoped project requiring specialized manufacturing capabilities. The primary contact for this opportunity is Amanda Hallmark, reachable at amh0271@auburn.edu or +1 334-844-3559, who can provide additional details about the procurement. Interested vendors should carefully review the detailed specification document, which provides exhaustive construction requirements and expectations for the moveable livestock shelters.
