About this opportunity
The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) is seeking to procure 1,100 tons of alfalfa hay for the Elkhorn Wildlife Area, located in Baker and Union Counties. The procurement is specifically for current year, second cutting or better quality hay, which must be delivered in 3x4 bales and be entirely weed-free, with no more than 5% grass content. The hay will be used to support wildlife management objectives, specifically feeding elk and fulfilling federal funding partner obligations. Bids will be accepted until September 19, 2023, at 3:00 PM Pacific Time, with hay required to be available for pickup or delivery by September 30, 2023. Evaluation criteria will include price, hay quality, moisture content, leaf-to-stem ratio, and weed content, with ODFW reserving the right to make multiple awards if a single bidder cannot fulfill the entire quantity. Hay suppliers must be able to provide pickup locations within 30 miles of North Powder, Oregon, or include delivery to that location at no additional cost.
The solicitation is funded entirely by federal funds and will incorporate federal contract provisions, which may impose additional compliance requirements on potential vendors. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned in the documents. The procurement does not appear to have restrictions limiting participation to specific types of organizations, suggesting open competition for qualified hay suppliers. While a specific budget range was not disclosed, the total procurement value is approximately 1,100 tons of alfalfa hay. The contract will require vendors to comply with state and federal laws, including pay equity, non-discrimination statutes, and recycled product usage requirements. ODFW will conduct a pre-award inspection of the hay and will award the contract(s) to the responsible bidder(s) submitting the lowest price for hay meeting the specified quality standards.
