NCGF Starter Feed

The Pennsylvania Game Commission is seeking a procurement for Game Bird Pheasant Starter Feed for use across Lycoming County, specifically in the Wolfdale CDP. The contract opportunity involves supplying crumbles and pellets with specific technical requirements, including no whole pellets and 0% on a 10 mesh screen, with pellets sized at 5/32". Delivery specifications mandate unloading on-site using a vehicle equipped with either a pneumatic blower or auger, with delivery quantities ranging from 8-24 tons as requested by Game Farm Superintendent Brett Barton. The procurement period covers April 21 through June 30, 2014, with deliveries accepted Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Additional specifications include the inclusion of specific medication additives such as 138 lbs of Avatec and 135 pounds of Amprolium 0.0175% or 1.4 pounds of Amprol per 110 tons of feed. The bid opening date is set for April 19, 2014 at 2:00 PM, with all questions to be directed to Bobbi Mercer, Purchasing Agent at the Bureau of Administrative Services.

The contract documents do not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on potential bidders, nor do they provide details about incumbent vendors or specific integration requirements. No explicit budget range or award value is listed in the available documentation. The procurement appears to be a straightforward feed supply contract for the Pennsylvania Game Commission's pheasant management program. Two addendum documents were issued modifying the original bid specifications, primarily adjusting medication quantities and feed specifications. The contract opportunity is limited to a specific timeframe and geographic area, focusing on the precise nutritional needs of game birds at a specific stage of development. Potential vendors would need to meet the technical specifications for feed composition, medication inclusion, and delivery logistics to be considered for the contract.
