About this file

This is Amendment 0001 to Solicitation W912WJ26QA134, issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), New England District, on July 21, 2026. The amendment provides responses to industry questions regarding past performance and teaming arrangements for a tree removal project involving approximately 403 trees near power lines and gaging stations.

The amendment clarifies that relevant past performance must demonstrate work of similar scope, complexity, technical difficulty, and dollar value to the large-scale, potentially hazardous tree removal requirements. Services such as landscaping, window cleaning, and septic pumping are not considered relevant experience. The amendment also confirms that subcontractor past performance can be credited toward meeting technical similarity and complexity requirements if submitted as part of a formal teaming arrangement disclosed in the solicitation survey. The Government reserves the right to review and verify all teaming arrangements and past performance references. The solicitation closing date remains July 30, 2026 at 2:00 PM Eastern, with all other terms and conditions unchanged. The contracting officer is Jennifer Samela, USACE KO Contracting Division, Concord, MA.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES

Solicitation/Contract Form Continuation

The following changes have been made:

Miscellaneous text in this section has been added to:

REQUEST FOR INFORMATION:

Question 1: The solicitation requires experience that is "similar in nature, size, and complexity" to the scope of felling approximately 403 trees near power lines and gaging stations. Will prime past performance that includes landscaping services, window cleaning, and septic pumping, performed for the federal government, be considered relevant past performance?

Response 1: No, past performance of landscape services, window cleaning, and septic pumping would not be considered relevant as these services are unrelated to the requirements for large scale, potentially hazardous tree removal. As included in the question, relevant past performance is work that of a similar scope, complexity, technical difficulty, and dollar value.

Question 2: If a vendor provides a formal teaming arrangement with a subcontractor who possesses specific large-scale tree removal experience, will that subcontractor's past performance be considered to satisfy the technical "similarity and complexity" requirements as outlined in Evaluation Step 4 (iii)?

Response 2: If a vendor provides a sufficient teaming arrangement as indicated in the solicitation and solicitation survey, past performance of a subcontractor can be considered. The solicitation survey affords vendors the ability to indicate if the past performance included is their own, or that of a subcontractor. The Government reserves the right to review and verify teaming arrangements and past performance references.
