Quick Summary
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Oregon State Office, intends to award a firm fixed-price contract for Surplus Seedlings for FY26 Planting in the Roseburg district, Oregon. This requirement is for specific Douglas Fir seedlings (<2500' elevation) and is intended as a single-source award to the Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians.
Scope of Work
The requirement is for the supply of Surplus Douglas Fir seedlings (specifically styro-15 <2500 elevation ROSTIC 1.5 Gen and Douglas Fir Bareroot) for the FY2026 planting season. These seedlings are needed to replant timber sale areas within the Roseburg district. The performance period will run from the date of award through September 30, 2026.

Justification for Single Source
The BLM justifies this single-source procurement under FAR subpart 13-106(b) due to unique circumstances. The Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians currently possesses a surplus of the specific <2500' elevation seedlings required. Given the short biological window for planting and the multi-year lead time required to grow new seedlings, a competitive solicitation for these specific items is deemed unrealistic. Market research confirmed that these specific seedlings are not readily available from other sources in the required quantity and delivery timeframe.
