Description

The Piedmont Geriatric Hospital is issuing an Invitation for Bids to procure sawdust and switchgrass, either individually or blended, for use as combustion fuel in its on‑site power plant. The contract will be awarded to multiple vendors on an as‑needed basis, allowing the hospital to source the appropriate biomass blend to meet fluctuating energy demands. • Supplies include pure sawdust, pure switchgrass, and mixed blends ranging from 40% to 90% switchgrass. • Vendors must be capable of delivering biomass on short notice and meet quality specifications for combustion efficiency. • The contract period runs from the posting date through at least the end of July 2026, with potential extensions based on the hospital’s fuel requirements. • All bids must be submitted by 15:00 on July 29, 2026; the solicitation is open to multiple qualified suppliers. • No pre‑bid conference or site visit is required, but questions (if any) must be submitted according to the standard procurement process.

Budget estimate

$200,000 – $500,000

No contract value is disclosed. Based on typical biomass supply contracts for medium‑size institutional power plants, a yearly spend could range from a few hundred thousand dollars to around half a million, depending on volume, blend ratios, and delivery frequency. Therefore, a reasonable estimate is $200,000–$500,000 for the contract period.
