Texas A&M AgriLife Extension is seeking qualified vendors to provide targeted goat grazing services on approximately 100 acres at Marine Corps Air Station Miramar in California, with the goal of managing vegetation, reducing fire hazards, controlling invasive species, and supporting land restoration. Bidders must submit unit prices for each line item and comply with all terms and conditions outlined in the solicitation, which supersede any conflicting provisions. The contract requires full compliance with federal regulations including the Davis-Bacon Act, RCRA, OSHA-equivalent safety standards, and EPA guidelines for recovered materials, with laborers paid prevailing wages and working no more than 40 hours per week unless overtime is compensated at 1.5 times the regular rate. All awarded vendors must obtain and maintain all necessary permits from MCAS Miramar and provide a valid certificate of insurance meeting specified coverage limits prior to commencing work, with the Texas A&M University System named as an additional insured. Performance is expected to occur between the issuance of a purchase order and September 2026, with grazing operations lasting no more than six consecutive weeks unless otherwise authorized, and all work must be conducted on-site at the MCAS Miramar location. Delivery is F.O.B. destination with freight prepaid, and vendors must submit electronic invoices following the purchase order terms, with payment net 30 days after service completion or receipt of a correct invoice, whichever is later. The solicitation emphasizes best-value award criteria, evaluating not only purchase price but also vendor reputation, service quality, alignment with agency needs, past performance with Texas A&M, long-term costs, warranty terms, and delivery timelines, without assigning formal weights to each factor. Vendors must also adhere to strict non-discrimination policies, avoid boycotts of energy or firearm-related entities, and must not appear on OFAC’s prohibited lists. Contracting requirements include a 5% bid guarantee and 100% performance and payment bonds for contracts exceeding $250,000. The proposal must include a mobilization and operations plan, daily logs, and a final grazing report with photographic documentation, and all submissions must be completed via the electronic portal by the June 12, 2026 deadline, with a pre-bid webinar scheduled for May 21, 2026. Vendors are required to register in SAM and provide contact information for key personnel, and the contract is governed by Texas law with no specified contract type designation or award amount.
