Description

Iowa State University seeks bids for bulk farm fertilizer for its Ames Area Farms. The scope includes delivery of specified quantities of MAP or approved substitutes, potash, and elemental sulfur, as well as custom flat-rate or variable-rate application across estimated acreage. Delivery pricing must include equipment capable of augering fertilizer into the university's spreader, and application equipment must support the specified methods, including separate application of phosphorus, potassium, and sulfur where required. The response must include an itemized quote and completion of the required online bid attributes, including product formulations, pricing, payment terms, insurance compliance, exceptions, subcontractor information, and contractor certification. Evaluation is based primarily on total price and ability to meet specifications. Required insurance certificates are due before work begins, not with the bid.
