About this opportunity

Dane County Land and Water Department is seeking a procurement of native seeds through Request for Bid #2024-RFB-005-PR, covering over 250 different grass, sedge, and forb species. The procurement requires seeds sourced within 200 miles of Madison, Wisconsin, with specific quality standards including minimum 60% germination rates, greater than 80% purity, and less than 1% weed seed content. Vendors must quote pricing on a "Dollar per Pure Live Seed (PLS) Pound" basis and provide detailed pricing for each seed species. The bid was released on December 8, 2023, with a vendor question submission deadline of January 5, 2024, and a proposal submission deadline of January 12, 2024, at 2:00 pm. Delivery of seeds is required on or prior to February 7, 2024, to 4318 Robertson Rd., Madison, WI 53714. Evaluation criteria include local vendor preferences, with potential additional points awarded to vendors based in Dane County, surrounding counties, or Wisconsin.

The procurement includes provisions for local vendor participation and supports regional seed production for conservation and restoration projects. Vendors must provide a Certificate of Insurance and comply with safety standards and non-discrimination policies. While no specific set-aside designations are explicitly mentioned, the bid appears to favor local and regional seed producers. Vendors are encouraged to provide information about seed availability, potential alternative species, and maximum order quantities. The bid does not specify a precise award value or budget range, but requires comprehensive pricing details for each seed species. Potential respondents must demonstrate the ability to meet strict seed quality requirements, local sourcing guidelines, and delivery specifications. The procurement aims to support ecological projects by securing high-quality native seeds from local and regional producers.
