About Me
- Jamie Mehringer
- Co-founder and partner of J&D Turf. A sportsturf junkie, I cut my teeth at Victory Field with the Indianapolis Indians maintaining the playing surface at what has been dubbed "The Best Minor League Ballpark in America." From intern, to assistant to head groundskeeper over 10 seasons, I was director of operations for the team before realizing sportsturf was my passion, baseball was merely the game. My bachelor’s degree in sports management from Marian University and a degree in turfgrass science from Purdue University serve as the initial credibility with clients ranging from university to K-12 administrators, parks and rec officials, and maintenance crews to my friends with their own fields in the Major Leagues. The "Smart Turf" blog is my way of sharing my experiences as consultant, groundskeeper and business owner with the larger sportsturf community. There was a day early in my career that I'd joke that I live to make tall grass short. Given the expanding horizon of this profession over the last decade, I've come to realize and respect it as much more.
Jamie do you have any examples of an RFP used for securing quotes for field maintenance products such as seed and fertilizers.
ReplyDeleteI am looking for an example where in the end a selection can be made on the vendors capability to quote product to be used for the entire year but to deliver "Just in Time" for application throughout the year. I have my plan layed out with product needed by month but need a format to use that will meet a school districts requirement to use the best and lowest priced vendor.
