Sealed bids with two copies of qualifications statements must be submitted to Paul Guymon, Purchasing Agent, by 3:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time on February 6, 2026. The contract term will commence on April 1, 2026, and continue for an initial period of two seasons, ending November 30, 2027, with potential renewal options. Contractors must provide all equipment, labor, maintenance, and materials, with specific requirements including mowing lawns at a three-inch height and performing work outside school hours. Key qualifications include maintaining $1,000,000 in comprehensive general liability insurance, providing workers compensation coverage, and complying with federal, state, and local laws.

There are no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations mentioned in the procurement documents. Contractors must be at least 16 years old or employ workers meeting federal child labor requirements. The compensation will be based on contractors' qualifications and a mutually negotiated final amount, with bidders required to submit weekly prices per facility. A monthly fuel surcharge is permitted if fuel prices average above $3.20 per gallon, ranging from $150 to $350 per month depending on price brackets. The district will impose financial penalties for damage to property, including $200 for soccer nets, $800 for batting cage nets, and $500 for trees, which will be deducted from payment. While no specific budget range is provided, bidders will submit individual facility pricing, suggesting flexibility in overall contract value. The procurement allows for potential multi-year renewal, indicating a possible long-term contracting opportunity for the successful vendor.
