2026 Landscape Planting Materials

The New Jersey Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (CRDA) is soliciting bids for the supply of landscaping planting materials to support the Special Improvement District Division, with the contract awarded to the lowest responsible bidder whose proposal meets all requirements. The solicitation, numbered 2026 Landscaping Planting Materials and posted on July 14, 2026, with a response deadline of August 11, 2026, does not specify contract value, estimated quantities are non-guaranteed, and no formal delivery schedule, FOB terms, or packaging standards are outlined. Performance is limited to the state of New Jersey, and while no federal FAR clauses apply, strict state compliance under Chapter 51 and Executive Order 117 is mandatory. Bidders and their attributable parties, including officers, shareholders with 10% or more ownership, partners, and related entities, must certify that no political contributions were made to restricted New Jersey candidates or committees within the 5.5 years prior to bid submission. Ongoing disclosure obligations require immediate reporting of any new contributions or changes in ownership structure during the contract term, and failure to maintain a valid two-year certification results in material breach risk, including contract termination or debarment. Acceptance is based solely on the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable model, with compliance being a non-negotiable pass/fail criterion; technical specifications for plant quality, inspection criteria, or delivery timelines are not detailed, and the only required documentation is the completed political contribution disclosure form, submitted electronically to cd134@treas.nj.gov or by mail to Trenton, NJ. No payment terms, invoicing system, contracting officer details, or socioeconomic set-asides are provided, and the award depends exclusively on adherence to political contribution disclosure rules and pricing competitiveness.
