Description
The City of Atlanta’s Department of Watershed Management is launching a multi‑step sealed‑bid procurement for its Annual Natural Area Management Program. The effort will be split into a pre‑qualification phase followed by an Invitation for Bids (IFB) for qualified vendors. The program focuses on three service areas: invasive plant control, forestry services, and land‑management activities (meadow creation, habitat assessments, restoration planting, debris removal, etc.). Vendors must demonstrate at least five years of relevant experience, provide safety records, organizational charts, resumes, and examples of recent comparable projects. A pre‑solicitation conference (virtual) will be held on Oct 20, 2026 to answer questions. The contract is expected to run for one year and will be renewed annually.
• Three core service categories – invasive species eradication, tree/forest management, and land‑resource management.
• Pre‑qualification required; minimum 5 years experience and safety program documentation.
• Virtual offerors’ conference on Oct 20, 2026 (optional).
• Bid submission deadline Nov 6, 2026; contract anticipated to be awarded after evaluation.
• Scope includes planning, site visits, proposal submission, execution, post‑work verification, and invoicing.
