About this opportunity

Portage County, Wisconsin is seeking bids for comprehensive landscape maintenance and snow removal services at the Portage County Business Park through a Request for Bid (RFB) issued on November 16, 2017. The procurement covers multiple service areas including mowing of turf areas (totaling 1,468,550 square feet with varying cutting frequencies), fertilizer application, weed control, planting bed maintenance (approximately 25,500 square feet), and irrigation system management (21,000 feet of line with 850 sprinkler heads). The bid deadline is set for December 14, 2017 at 2:00 PM, with submissions to be made to the Portage County Purchasing Department in Stevens Point. Contractor qualifications include a minimum of three years of similar service experience, verifiable through references from comparable institutions. Bidders must provide a Certificate of Insurance with at least $1,000,000 in liability coverage for bodily injury and property damage. The contract will run from January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018, with potential for three additional one-year renewal periods contingent on mutual agreement. Award will be made to the lowest qualified bidder meeting all specifications, not necessarily the lowest bid.

The solicitation does not specify explicit set-aside designations for disadvantaged or minority-owned businesses. Subcontracting is permitted but requires pre-approval from the County after contract award. The County reserves significant contractual rights, including termination with 30 days' written notice for performance issues or immediate termination if insurance requirements are not maintained or if contractor performance threatens health and safety. While specific budget ranges are not detailed, bidders are required to submit unit prices and estimated annual costs on the provided Bid Offer Form. Pricing is expected to remain firm throughout the contract period, with potential cost adjustments considered before renewal periods if supported by documented industry-wide increases. Invoicing must be itemized by service date and description, with payment anticipated within 30 days of receipt. All work must comply with Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade, and Consumer Protection regulations and Department of Natural Resources requirements.
