Lawn & Landscaping Services

This solicitation establishes a five‑year Pre‑Approved Vendor List (PVL) for lawn‑and‑landscaping services that Mississippi state agencies can use on an as‑needed basis. Vendors submit all‑inclusive hourly rates for core services (mowing, edging, string trimming, blowing, debris pickup). The PVL covers eight geographic regions; selected vendors are assigned to one or more regions and may be called upon without a separate competitive bid. The contract is indefinite‑quantity, fixed‑price (hourly), with no guaranteed minimum hours, and includes a price‑adjustment provision limited to a 110 % increase if market disruptions occur. Vendors must meet experience, licensing, insurance, and reference requirements, and must be E‑Verify compliant. The PVL becomes effective 4 Mar 2026 and expires 28 Feb 2031, with possible two‑year extensions. • Core services are priced by the hour and cover mowing, edging, trimming, blowing, and debris pickup. • Vendors are evaluated on a “≤ 125 % of market average” rule for the core‑service average rate. • Eight vendors were selected for placement on the PVL across the state’s eight regions. • No minimum hour commitment; agencies request services as needed under the PVL. • Price‑adjustment clause allows up to a 10 % increase subject to agency approval.
