Mormon Gap Guzzler Apron Materials Kit

The State of Utah Division of Purchasing and Division of Wildlife Resources issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for a Mormon Gap Guzzler Apron Materials Kit under Solicitation #JH20014, seeking building materials for constructing a single big game guzzler apron. The procurement requires a comprehensive materials kit to be delivered to the Southern Region Utah Division of Wildlife Resources Office in Cedar City, UT within 30 days of bid award. Bidders were required to submit electronic documentation through SciQuest, provide point-by-point responses to mandatory minimums, and comply with standard terms and conditions. The evaluation criteria focused on selecting the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with specific prerequisites including maintaining applicable licenses and avoiding tax liens. Key procurement dates included a bid opening on August 6, 2019 at 11:30 AM MDT and a closing date of August 16, 2019 at 2:00 PM MDT, with RJ Fabrication ultimately being awarded the contract for the project.

The solicitation did not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The procurement appeared to be open to qualified vendors capable of meeting the technical specifications and delivery requirements for the guzzler apron materials kit. While specific budget ranges were not detailed in the available documentation, the contract represented a single line-item procurement covering materials and delivery costs. The project was specifically focused on providing materials for a wildlife infrastructure improvement, suggesting a targeted, specialized procurement within the state's wildlife management resources. No incumbent vendors beyond RJ Fabrication were mentioned, and the procurement seemed to be a straightforward materials acquisition with clear technical requirements for the guzzler apron kit.
