AR - felsenthal NWR - fuel BPA

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is soliciting quotes for a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to deliver bulk fuel to two Arkansas National Wildlife Refuges: Felsenthal NWR and Overflow NWR. The procurement seeks delivery of unleaded gasoline (87 octane) and diesel fuel (#2, 15 PPM sulfur ULSD) on an as-needed basis during normal business hours. Contractors must demonstrate technical experience and capacity to perform delivered bulk fuel services in similar size, location, and proximity situations, supported by three examples of comparable work and at least two valid references. Evaluation will prioritize technical capabilities and past performance significantly more heavily than price, with offerors also required to submit a detailed management plan identifying key personnel. Quotes are due by April 27, 2026 at 12:00 PM Eastern Time, with an anticipated award date of May 1, 2026; all respondents must be registered and active in SAM.gov with a valid Unique Entity Identifier.

This procurement is designated as a Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS Code 213112, with Sewell Oil Company identified as the current vendor providing these services. The BPA carries an authorized lifetime limit of $150,000 with a not-to-exceed call limit of $10,000 per order, with fuel quantities not to exceed $30,000.00 under the current SOW. The contract period of performance extends from May 1, 2026 through April 30, 2031, providing a five-year service relationship. Deliveries are required at two locations in Arkansas: Felsenthal National Wildlife Refuge (5531 Highway 82 West, Crossett, AR 71635) and Overflow National Wildlife Refuge (3858 Highway 8 East, Parkdale, AR 71661).
