The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Omaha awarded a single award indefinite delivery contract to Dakota Helicopter Air Services, Inc. to provide aerial vegetation control spraying services along the Missouri River in North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, and portions of Lewis & Clark Lake. The contract has a potential value of $1.8 million over a five-year period of performance from July 2020 to July 2025.
Under the contract, the Corps has issued three firm fixed price delivery orders to date. The first order in the amount of $126,187 was awarded in September 2020 for vegetation control spraying with a period of performance through October 2020 in Beulah, North Dakota. The second order worth $222,223.50 was awarded in August 2021 for similar services through October 2021 in Omaha, Nebraska. The third and most recent order valued at $2,500 was awarded in July 2020 for vegetation control spraying through July 2025 also in Omaha, Nebraska. No set-aside provisions were applied to these task order awards.
The original pre-solicitation notice indicated the contract would be set aside exclusively for small businesses to conduct aerial spraying of aquatic herbicides by helicopter along segments of the Missouri River to control vegetation on sandbars from late August through early October each year. Evaluation criteria were outlined to assess proposals submitted in response to the forthcoming request for proposal solicitation.
