FY27 Quarterly Pest Control at Homewood NGA

The contract is for a one-time purchase of general pest control services at Fort Mulkey/Homewood NGA in Homewood, Alabama, covering an 18,850-square-foot main facility and 1,613 square feet of supporting buildings, with services delivered quarterly from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027. The vendor is responsible for controlling rodents, crawling insects, and flying insects during normal duty hours of 0730 to 1730, Tuesday through Friday, and is prohibited from providing termite treatment. Payment is made in arrears via electronic funds transfer, and invoices must be submitted to the receiving agency. The total contract value is not explicitly stated, but the agreement is capped at a maximum of $25,000 in total cost and may not exceed five years in duration, with annual renewals subject to fund availability and statutory proration requirements. The State of Alabama does not guarantee appropriations, and the contract may be canceled if funds are not available or prorated due to budget shortfalls. The vendor must comply with Alabama-specific legal requirements, including registration as a foreign corporation with the Alabama Secretary of State, enrollment in E-Verify for all employees working in the state, and certification of compliance with state tax laws under Act 2006-557. Suppliers must also submit a disclosure statement if the contract exceeds $25,000 and agree not to indemnify the state or claim sovereign immunity as a basis for litigation. Inspection and acceptance are solely at the discretion of the state, occurring at the point of delivery after physical inspection, and receipt of goods does not equate to acceptance. The vendor must accept electronic payments without additional fees and adhere to price escalation limits tied to the Consumer Price Index with a maximum yearly increase of 5%, requiring written approval for any adjustment. Disputes must be resolved through negotiation or mediation in Montgomery, Alabama, and the contract includes severability and no-waiver provisions. No line-item pricing data is provided, and the solicitation is evaluated without publicly disclosed evaluation factors or award basis, though cost reasonableness is implied as a key consideration. All submissions must be made electronically through the Alabama Buys portal by the deadline of August 18, 2026, and no physical packaging, marking, or federal FAR-based clauses apply, as this is governed by Alabama state procurement regulations.
