AS27-104 FY27 Fall Seed Bid

Project Description: Issuing Procurement Unit: State of Utah Division of Purchasing
Conducting Procurement Unit: State of Utah Division of Wildlife Resources
The purpose of this IFB is to enter into a contract to provide various seeds. See the attachments for additional information.
It is anticipated that this IFB will result in a multiple Purchase Orders award.
The methodology or formula that will be used to determine the number of contract awards is: All awards will be based upon the lowest pure live seed (PLS Price per Pound carried out to three decimals places) price offered and the nearest date of delivery for each item meeting the minimum seed bid specifications (listed on the request spreadsheet) for that line item. Each bid will be ranked lowest bid to highest per line item by PLS price rounded to the nearest three decimal places. Preference may be given to items that can be delivered on or before dates specified on the bid solicitation sheet (Attachment C), but items with later delivery date will be considered if they meet the timeline needs of the State.
Once the lowest PLS bid of a line item, that meets the timeline needs of the State, is exhausted per supplier bid, the State will then move to the next lowest bid until the line item need is fulfilled. Past performance (including, but not limited to: failure to supply awarded seed, late delivery, repeatedly supplying seed below specifications, etc.) of the vendor may be considered when making awards.
Award amount will be for Bulk Price per Pound, rounded to the nearest two decimal places. Bid prices must include delivery to the Great Basin Research Center Seed Warehouse located at 494 West 100 South, Ephraim, Utah. The bidder is responsible for any/all damage occurring in transit. All seed must be delivered on pallets to be retained by the DWR. Weight of pallets cannot exceed 2,500 lbs.
Vendor must guarantee its pricing through delivery.
