About this opportunity
The State of Georgia, through the Georgia Forestry Commission, solicited bids for T-Rails and related materials for seedling trays through a competitive procurement process. The primary objective of this procurement is to supply materials for T-Rail benches designed to accommodate 24,000 Stieuwe and Sons FT 135 Forestry Trays, which will be utilized for cultivating containerized Longleaf and Loblolly Pine seedlings at state facilities. Bidders were required to submit electronic responses exclusively through the Team Georgia Marketplace (TGM) portal, with registration as either a Sourcing Bidder (for companies without prior state transactions) or a Supplier (for companies with existing purchase orders, remittances, or contracts with Georgia). The bid solicitation was posted on December 15, 2025, with a response deadline of January 6, 2026, at 3:00 PM. Technical support for portal navigation and bid submission was available through the Department of Administrative Services Customer Service Help Desk at 404-657-6000 (Monday-Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM ET) or via email at ProcurementHelp@doas.ga.gov. The evaluation process prioritized competitive pricing, as the contract was awarded to the lowest qualified bidder.
The procurement documents do not specify any set-aside designations, minority or disadvantaged enterprise requirements, or restrictions on respondent eligibility beyond the standard Georgia state vendor registration requirements. Three vendors submitted bids for the T-Rails contract, and SK Design Inc was awarded the contract as the lowest bidder at $106,553.61, with the Notice of Intent to Award issued and the final Notice of Award announced on January 26, 2026. The competing bids ranged from $106,553.61 to $127,864.33, demonstrating a competitive market response with Hoopoe Labs Inc bidding $117,208.97 and SIAK Enterprise LLC bidding $127,864.33. No incumbent contractor information, existing infrastructure integration requirements, or specific contract duration details were disclosed in the available documentation. Prospective bidders seeking additional contract terms, conditions, or detailed specifications should access the complete solicitation documents through the Team Georgia Marketplace portal or contact DOAS at ProcurementHelp@doas.ga.gov.
