Timber Stands Mapping Multi-Area

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is seeking competitive pricing for the development of forest inventory polygons and stand maps across multiple Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) and Wildlife Environmental Areas (WEAs) in the state of Florida. The intent is to obtain an ArcGIS file geodatabase that provides stand polygons covering each selected WMA/WEA. Vendors are required to populate various data fields but are not expected to collect field data. The recommended maximum stand size is 14,180 acres, and the minimum is 0.5 acres. Vendors must visit the sites to spot-check several polygons prior to submitting the draft product, but are not required to visit all areas. The project must be completed by June 30, 2023, and FWC has the option to renew the contract for an additional one-year period. The contract will be awarded to the bidder with the lowest total bid, and the specific areas to be completed will be based on price and available budget.

FWC encourages diversity in its procurement program and requests that all subcontracting opportunities reflect the diverse population of the State of Florida. Bidders must be registered in the MyFloridaMarketPlace (MFMP) system and with Sunbiz prior to the bid opening. Sealed bids are due by February 1, 2023, at 3:00 PM ET, with a public bid opening scheduled for the same date and time. Pricing terms, funding sources, and any listed incumbent vendors or current contractors are not provided in the information available.
