Grounds Maintenance with 4 Option Years

Solicitation # 1232SA26Q0977

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 total area to be maintained is approximately five acres, with 37 scheduled mowing events and 38 trash pickups planned annually, though the extra pickup in January will be removed to align with the total. Access to the facility is controlled through advance coordination at the front gate; personnel must call in on scheduled days and no security clearance beyond SAM registration is required. The contract is a total small business set-aside with a NAICS code of 561730 and a size standard of $9.5 million, requiring active SAM registration and compliance with federal anti-discrimination laws and DEI certification provisions that prohibit funding or operating programs violating Title VI and VII of the Civil Rights Act. Invoicing may be submitted monthly, quarterly, or after each completed service, but must occur after service is rendered and will be processed through the Treasury’s IPP system. 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.
