About this opportunity

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), through its Eastern Acquisitions office in College Park, GA, is soliciting proposals for road repair and rehabilitation services at the BGQ VORTAC facility in Big Lake, Alaska. The project involves grading and compacting existing roadways, installing geotechnical materials, clearing vegetation within 20 feet of roadway edges, and replacing existing culverts with 18-inch HDPE culverts and marker posts. Contractors must demonstrate relevant experience with at least three similar projects within the past five years and maintain current registration in the System for Award Management (SAM). The FAA will use a lowest-price, technically acceptable (LPTA) evaluation methodology, assessing offerors based on experience, technical understanding, insurance capabilities, and bonding capacity. Following an amendment dated July 22, 2025, proposals are now due by July 31, 2025, at 3:00 PM EDT, with questions accepted until July 15, 2025, and an optional site visit scheduled for July 10, 2025.

This requirement is designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction) with a standard size of $45 million. No incumbent contractors are identified in the solicitation documents. The estimated contract value ranges between $500,000 and $1,000,000, with the FAA contemplating award of a firm fixed-price contract. The projected performance period is approximately 90 calendar days from contract award. Work will be performed at the VORTAC facility located at coordinates 61°34'10.0"N, 149°58'01.8"W in Big Lake (Wasilla), Alaska, accessible via South Horseshoe Lake Road and private road W. Camp Drive near Camp Maranatha.
