City of AtlantaIssuing agency·Atlanta, GA·via the Georgia Procurement Registry (DOAS)The City of Atlanta, on behalf of the Department of Watershed Management (DWM), will shortly undergo a MultiStep Sealed Bid process comprised of a prequalification phase as the initial step, followed by an Invitation for Bids (IFB) for the procurement of qualified suppliers to provide services under the Annual Natural Area Management Program. The program consists of three primary areas of emphasis: Invasive Plant Control, Forestry Services, and Land Management. Interested vendors during the prequalification phase will be evaluated based on their demonstrated experience providing invasive plant control, forestry services, and land management. Vendors must demonstrate a minimum of five years of relevant experience, provide an organizational chart and resumes for key project personnel, and identify two successfully completed or current projects within the last two years that are similar in scope and complexity. Vendors must also demonstrate an established safety program and provide the required safety record information. The City's expectation is that the selected supplier will provide safe, effective, and responsive natural area management services that support the protection, restoration, and long-term management of City properties and natural areas. Services may include invasive plant control, routine and emergency forestry services, and natural resource and conservation land management activities. A PreSolicitation Conference will be noticed and held to provide additional details and answer questions from interested
vendors. We look forward to your participation.

The program includes invasive plant control (spraying, stump cut and treat, basal bark treatment, stem injection at various infestation levels), forestry services (street and greenspace tree removal with crane or lift/climbing crews, pruning, stump grinding, 24-hour emergency response), and land management (meadow management and establishment, restoration planting with 100% native Georgia Piedmont species, non-vegetative debris removal). Work is initiated by the City on an as-needed basis; each task requires a site visit, written proposal, and City approval before commencement. Invasive plant control must achieve 90% or higher reduction in target species density per application; restoration plantings require 90% survivability after one year.

Most Georgia work asks for the two below, and the solicitation documents are where it’s stated. One prequalification covers both — on this bid and the next.
A surety’s written statement that it expects to bond you up to a stated amount, subject to final underwriting. It’s what a GC or agency asks to see before they take your bid seriously.
