CSP 21A-006 Purchase of Tree Maintenance and Trimming Services

The Alamo Colleges District awarded an annual contract for tree maintenance and trimming services to three vendors after an open competition. The work entails routine pruning, trimming, and removal of trees across district facilities, classified by tree‑diameter categories (e.g., 6‑9", 10‑13.9", up to 30"+). Each vendor submitted pricing for the defined service categories, and the district evaluated both price (70% weighting) and technical merit (30%). The contract is a one‑year agreement with the possibility of annual renewal, subject to the district’s discretion. Vendors must provide Texas Ethics Commission Form 1295 and meet specific insurance requirements (additional insured status, waiver of subrogation, 30‑day cancellation notice).
