Nursery Plants

The Borough of Naugatuck, located in New Haven County, Connecticut, is seeking proposals for the supply and delivery of nursery plants through a Request for Quotation (RFQ) with the solicitation number FY24-B047. The procurement is open to all vendors and covers a contract period from July 1, 2023, through June 30, 2024. The RFQ solicits proposals for nursery plants, though specific quantities, line items, or detailed specifications are not provided in the documentation. The solicitation was released on April 5, 2023, with proposals due by April 20, 2023, at 11:00 AM EDT. Interested vendors can obtain the bid document at no cost from the Borough of Naugatuck's website (www.naugatuck-ct.gov). Delivery terms are specified as Free On Board Destination, with payment terms to be determined by the vendor. Potential bidders with questions are instructed to contact James R. Stewart of the Naugatuck Public Works Department.

The RFQ does not indicate any specific set-aside designations, restrictions on vendor participation, or preferences for disadvantaged enterprises. No information is provided about incumbent vendors or existing contractual arrangements for nursery plant procurement. The solicitation does not specify an estimated total contract value, budget range, or detailed evaluation criteria. There are no mentions of integration requirements with existing infrastructure or technology. The document provides minimal context about the specific needs of the Borough or the intended use of the nursery plants. Vendors are expected to submit proposals that meet the basic requirements of supplying nursery plants for the specified one-year contract period. The lack of detailed specifications suggests the Borough is seeking flexibility in plant selection and pricing from potential vendors.
