This solicitation is for a firm-fixed-price grounds maintenance contract at the Knipling-Bushland U.S. Livestock Insects Research Laboratory in Kerrville, Texas, with a one-year base period and four one-year option periods, potentially extending the total performance period to five years. The work includes mowing, edging, weed eating, leaf and debris removal, shrub and hedge trimming four times annually, and two annual applications of a fertilizer/weed killer combination suitable for Bermuda and St. Augustine grass, all performed Monday through Friday between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. The contractor is responsible for removing and hauling all trash, debris, and grass clippings to an off-site location since no on-site disposal area is available; however, fertilizer and weed control outside the specified twice-yearly applications are not required as they are covered under a separate contract.

The evaluation method is lowest price technically acceptable, meaning only the lowest-priced technically acceptable offer with acceptable or neutral past performance will be considered. The facility does not provide storage for equipment or supplies, though water access is available. No significant changes to the scope are anticipated during option years, and the contractor must handle missed services due to weather or holidays by coordinating a makeup date with the point of contact. A site visit is recommended but not mandatory, and all quotes must be submitted electronically by 4:00 p.m. CST on August 28, 2026, with detailed descriptions of capability, relevant government experience, and past performance required to be considered responsive.
