About this opportunity
The City of South Jordan is requesting proposals for weed control services on 161.62 acres of municipal properties, including parks, open spaces, and buildings, with proposals due July 29, 2026 via the State of Utah's Bonfire procurement portal.
The scope requires three annual treatments: spring applications (February through April), fall applications (September through October), and one additional treatment as requested by the city. The first application must occur between September 14 and October 16, 2026. All treatments must be spray applications only; two applications use TruPower 3 or equivalent, and the third uses an equivalent product without 2,4-D based on temperature and weed species. The City will not provide equipment. The contractor's all-inclusive pricing must cover materials, labor, equipment rental, travel, delivery, fuel, maintenance, waste disposal, insurance, and all other costs.
Minimum qualifications are ten years of commercial weed control application experience, a current Utah state business license, and a current Utah Commercial Pesticide Applicators license. Contractors must maintain commercial general liability insurance of at least $2 million per occurrence and $3 million in aggregate, plus all required employee-related insurance. Proposals must include a statement of qualifications (not exceeding ten pages), cost proposals, business licenses, commercial applicator licenses, insurance documentation, and at least three customer references.
The contract term is one year with options to renew annually for up to four additional years. The City intends to award a single contract to the most qualified responsive and responsible contractor, though it reserves the right to make multiple or partial awards if deemed in its best interest.
The selection committee will evaluate proposals using weighted criteria: cost (40%), experience and staff qualifications (20%), and references (40%). Award is contingent upon contract execution, and the City does not guarantee that any planned purchases will occur. All proposals must be submitted electronically through Bonfire; vendors must register free of charge on the platform prior to submission.
