USFS NM Road Maintenance and Construction 2015-2020

The Forest Service Region 3-Southwestern Region established this Master IDIQ for New Mexico road maintenance and construction work on December 30, 2015, with a December 31, 2020 ordering deadline; ordering closed five and a half years ago and the vehicle is no longer active. The shared ceiling stands at $2 million, which has been fully obligated across 14 task orders awarded between July 2016 and September 2019.

Activity declined sharply in the vehicle's final years. The contracting office issued seven orders in 2016, five in 2017, one in 2018, and one in 2019. The most recent award went out in September 2019.

Work scope centers on routine forest-road maintenance: surface blading, drainage construction and maintenance, culvert cleaning and replacement, cattle-guard repair and replacement, gate installation, roadside brushing, sign and guardrail installation, aggregate resurfacing, and road decommissioning. Task orders reflect this mix—culvert replacement and installation appear frequently, along with forest-wide road-maintenance programs and campground-road surfacing within the Carson, Santa Fe, and Cibola National Forests.

Urban Trucking & Excavation LLC captured the largest share, holding seven orders for $825 thousand in combined potential value. Penasco Gravel Corp follows with three orders totaling $551 thousand, and Randy Sena Construction, Inc. earned one $509 thousand order. Bonnell Sand & Gravel, Inc. and Stormwater Plans, LLC account for the remainder. The five primes split the work relatively evenly relative to vehicle size.

The Forest Service R3-Southwestern Region was the sole customer agency, funding all 14 orders. Set-aside activity split evenly: seven orders carried no set-aside designation, and seven were designated Total Small Business. All work priced as firm fixed price.

Task-order values ranged from roughly $5 thousand to $509 thousand, with most falling between $30 thousand and $180 thousand. Completion dates extended 6 to 36 months from award. Geographic scope remained confined to northern and central New Mexico national forests—Carson, Santa Fe, Cibola, and Lincoln—reflecting Region 3's administrative footprint.

This Master IDIQ is for road maintenance, decommissioning, surfacing and minor construction. Typically work will consist of, but is not limited to routine road maintenance activities such as surface blading, constructing and maintaining drainage features, culvert cleaning and replacement, cattle guard cleaning, repairs and replacement, gate installation, roadside brushing, sign and guardrail installation, road surfacing, concrete and asphalt surface maintenance and repairs, road decommissioning and emergency repairs as required.
