- Description
- Contract # 40181RY029Award amount: $100,000.00Date of Award: March 17, 2010 The goal of this project is to reduce pine density on 855 acres of Florida Scrub Jay habitat Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. The contractor will cut pines using chainsaws throughout the project area. A Time & Material contract was awarded due to the work area being large and difficult to access, which was difficult to accurately map treatment sites. Contractors would have a difficult time visually assessing the amount of vegetation which would need to be treated. If this contract were fixed price, many contractors would be discouraged from bidding due to inability to fully assess what work is actually required, or alternatively, they may have significantly increased their prices to take into consideration potential risk (of underbidding). A Time & Materials contract will provide the flexibility to maximize the use of available funds and allow treatment of the most problematic areas.
