About this opportunity
The Bureau of Land Management's Gunnison Field Office in Colorado is seeking a contractor to demolish a pit toilet facility located at approximately 11,600 feet elevation near Silverton, Colorado. The project involves complete demolition of the vault toilet building, floor slab, and top 18 inches of the concrete vault, neutralization of remaining waste using 400 pounds of calcium hydroxide, site grading, and importing fill material from across the road. Work must be completed within 365 days of the notice to proceed, with operations restricted to Monday through Friday excluding federal holidays, and contract time may be paused during snow or snowmelt conditions that prevent access. The solicitation is planned for release on July 31, 2025, with a closing date of August 29, 2025, and award decisions will be based on price and other factors including past performance, contractor location within 300 miles of the project site, and demonstrated understanding of logistical challenges. The contract will be a firm fixed price arrangement under FAR Part 36 construction provisions, with potential bonding requirements and adherence to Davis-Bacon Act prevailing wages for Gunnison County, Colorado.
This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) with a size standard of $45 million, though the government particularly encourages participation from small disadvantaged, woman-owned, service-disabled veteran, HUBZone, 8a, and Indian Small Business Economic Enterprises. No incumbent contractor information is provided in the pre-solicitation notice. The rough order of magnitude for the project is estimated between $25,000 and $100,000, reflecting the specialized nature of the high-altitude demolition work and site access challenges. The bid schedule includes five line items each with a quantity of one: mobilization and demobilization, traffic control, calcium hydroxide, demolition, and fill material and site grading. A pre-bid site visit will be scheduled after the formal solicitation is posted, and contractors must maintain active SAM.gov registration and utilize the Invoice Processing Platform for payment processing under the government's 14-day prompt pay schedule.
