Analysis
This Request for Bids was for landscaping maintenance to include mowing, trimming, pruning, fertilizing, irrigation system inspections and repairs for the City’s Tourist Information Center (TIC). This bid was based on a best value criteria set up in the specification, cost, business practices, experience and maintenance schedule.
Notice of proposal #19052 was advertised in the Fort Worth Star Telegram and Bid Sync; it was distributed to 45 vendors. Two Grand Prairie Vendors were available for these services, two submitted bids. Seven (7) bids were received as shown on attachment A.
After further consideration on Tuesday, March 5 2019, the Finance & Government Committee recommends rejection of all bids and the scope of work called for under this contract. The City will include this work under a City-wide Landscape Maintenance request for bids to be solicited at a later point in time.
