About this file

This is an Amendment of Solicitation/Modification of Contract (Standard Form 30) and related solicitation documents for a Request for Quote (RFQ) issued by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Pocatello Field Office for seeding services in the WFS PFO Buckboard area.

The RFQ number is 140L0226Q0015, with an effective date of July 6, 2026, and is set-aside for small business. The scope of work involves seeding 850 acres, with contractors required to submit pricing on a per-acre basis. The government indicates that aerial seeding by helicopter would be best suited for the upper slopes. The period of performance runs from October 1, 2026, to January 15, 2027. Award will be made based on best value to the government. Contractors must submit their Unique Entity ID (UEI) and CAGE code with their quote. The contract is administered by BLM AK-Financial Services Section in Fort Wainwright, Alaska, with Contract Specialist Michael Stewart (michael_stewart@ios.doi.gov) and Contracting Officer Cory Cornell (blm_ak_AFS_procurement@blm.gov) as primary contacts. Service Contract Act prevailing wage rates apply under Wage Determination No. 1995-0228. If the full 850 acres are not completed but the seeding rate was correct, the vendor will be paid in full. The government will extend the deadline and compensate for delays beyond the contractor's control if winter weather delays work past January 15, 2027. This is a new requirement and not a recompete.
