Description

The North Dakota State University procurement for Langdon Research Extension Center calls for a turnkey seed‑conditioning system capable of processing at least 300 bushels per hour within an existing 48 × 64 ft facility. The scope includes a full line of equipment – vibratory pre‑cleaner, air‑screen cleaner, indent length separator, gravity decks, dust‑collection system, bucket elevators, conveyors, automation sensors, PLC/HMI, and an optional color‑sorting package – together with engineering drawings, utility coordination, installation, on‑site startup, testing, training, and comprehensive documentation. Evaluation is weighted 75 % technical (approach, experience, implementation, references) and 25 % cost, with the award granted to Garratt, who received a 95/100 score. The contract is a single‑award, firm‑fixed‑price procurement, open to all qualified vendors, with submission deadline August 7 2026. • Turnkey seed‑conditioning line (≥ 300 BPH) for wheat, barley, durum, soybeans, field peas, etc. • Includes dust‑collection, automation, optional explosion‑proof color sorter, and full installation/commissioning services. • Awarded to Garratt (single vendor) after a technical‑plus‑cost evaluation; no budget ceiling disclosed.

Contract value

$1,800,000

The solicitation does not publish a contract value. A comparable seed‑conditioning line with the level of automation, dust‑collection, and optional color sorter typically ranges from $1 million to $2 million for equipment alone, plus installation, training, and documentation which can add another 20‑30 %. Assuming a mid‑range equipment cost of $1.5 million and adding ~$300 k for services yields an estimated contract value of roughly $1.8 million. This ball‑park reflects typical market prices for 300 BPH multi‑crop cleaning systems in the U.S. Midwest.
