About this opportunity

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB) No. S-63500-00000342 for the procurement of current year, quality, weed-free Alfalfa Hay to support winter elk feeding operations in Baker and Union Counties. The procurement specifically seeks Second Crop Alfalfa, though alternate pricing for First and Third Crop Alfalfa will be considered. Vendors were required to provide pricing for 50-ton lots of hay, with bids to be submitted by August 17, 2021, at 2:00 PM Pacific Time, and expected delivery on or before August 30, 2021. ODFW will distribute the purchased hay across ten feeding sites in the two counties. Bidders located within 30 miles of North Powder, Oregon, will have their hay picked up by ODFW, while those beyond this radius must provide delivery FOB North Powder. The procurement is fully funded by federal funds and incorporates federal contract provisions for non-federal entity contracts.

The ITB did not specify specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. Two vendors were identified as successful bidders: Neske Brothers LLC of Baker City, Oregon, and M & H Ranch of North Powder, Oregon. The bid tabulation revealed pricing ranging from $270 to $340 per ton, with total contract values potentially spanning from $27,000 to $289,000. Bids were accepted for both 3x4 and 4x4 bale configurations, with M & H Ranch presenting the lowest bid for Second Crop Alfalfa Hay. ODFW reserved the right to make multiple awards, indicating flexibility in vendor selection. The contract appears to be a one-time purchase without specified renewal options, focused on securing high-quality hay for elk winter feeding programs in the specified Oregon counties.
