Vendors must be registered in the state's vendor system and carry comprehensive insurance as specified in the solicitation. Pricing will be calculated based on actual monthly usage, with bidders required to include all associated costs and fees in their proposal. While specific award value is not explicitly stated, the five-year contract duration suggests a substantial commitment. The solicitation emphasizes compliance with South Carolina procurement regulations, including specific tax considerations and detailed insurance requirements. Prospective vendors must demonstrate technical competence, financial stability, and the ability to meet the precise waste management needs of the Dennis Wildlife Center.
