About this opportunity
The United States Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) Plant Protection and Quarantine division has awarded Contract No. 12639526C0021 to Davey Resource Group, Inc. for an estimated value of $1,241,991.70 to conduct Asian Longhorned Beetle (ALB) eradication and tree removal services in Hollywood, South Carolina. The contract, awarded on April 20, 2026, under FAR 6.302-2 (Unusual and Compelling Urgency), requires the removal of approximately 3,426 infested and high-risk ALB host trees across 55 acres in the Mount Pleasant and Charleston County areas, along with comprehensive landscape restoration and debris deregulation services. The six-month performance period accommodates the critical timeframe necessitated by a new ALB infestation confirmed in December 2025 that requires tree removal before adult beetle emergence in early May 2026. This sole-source award was justified based on the incumbent contractor's proprietary technologies, specialized ALB expertise, and operational familiarity that could not be replicated by alternative sources within the required emergency timeframe.
