Trail Head/Trail Building and Maintenance Services

The State of Wyoming's Department of Administration & Information Purchasing Section is seeking qualified contractors to provide trail/trailhead building and maintenance services across the state through an Invitation for Bid (IFB). The required services include providing all necessary equipment and meeting the area-specific specifications and general requirements outlined in the IFB. Bidders must demonstrate the ability to provide a sound operations plan, reliable back-up equipment and operators, and a minimum of 10 years of trail building and maintenance experience. The contract will be awarded based solely on the lowest average bid price per hour for the required equipment, which includes a D-5 dozer, tracked skid loader, mini excavator, 15-ton excavator, frontend loader, motor grader, dump truck, and tractor trailer. Bids are due by 2:00 PM on November 7, 2024, and the contract will be awarded for a one-year period with the option to extend for up to four additional one-year periods.

The IFB does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The contract does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, and there is no information provided about any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The IFB does not provide a specific award value or budget range, but it states that the contract will be awarded to the firm determined to have the most responsive and responsible bid, and multiple awards may result.
