Fertilizer needed for turf season 2013. Annual turf fertilization is necessary to help maintain cemetery turf at NCA "National Shrine Standards". Healthy, weed free turf is achieved by following a regular, season long turf fertilization program. As application timing is crucial when applying turf fertilizer it is imperative that this fertilizer be readily available for the cemetery staff to apply by April 21st in order for the fertilizer to sufficiently green the turf in time for Memorial Day Services. Based on market research, a determination has been made to solicit this requirement as a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business set aside. All businesses that are either presently so certified or believe that they meet the requirements for certification (see solicitation for details) are encouraged to respond. All other businesses that would otherwise have an interest in being considered for this requirement are invited to submit a brief interest letter by the posted response date that describes your capability to provide the requested services as described in the solicitation at an economical price. All responses received will be evaluated, and a determination by the government to re-solicit the instant procurement action is solely within the discretion of the Contracting Officer. It is emphasized that all information received from businesses other than SDVOSBs will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to re-solicit the requirement and will not be construed as a formal quotation. The government will not reimburse any costs connected with providing the requested interest and capability information.
