About this opportunity

The US Army Corps of Engineers Portland District is preparing to procure spare sections of Ultrahigh Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE) fabricated into antenna skid caps for the Bonneville Passive Interrogation Transponder Ice and Trash Sluiceway Shield, with a sources-sought response deadline of June 6, 2026. This is a market-research sources-sought notice, not a formal solicitation.

Place of performance is Bradford Island Service Building in Cascade Locks, Oregon. The requirement spans two contract line items: the base requirement for two UHMW-PE sections (CLIN 0001) and an optional second quantity of two additional sections (CLIN 0002) under identical specifications. All work must be completed within 180 calendar days of award.

UHMW-PE material specifications include minimum specific gravity of 0.034 lbs/in³, minimum tensile strength of 4,000 PSI, minimum durometer hardness of D65, maximum coefficient of friction against steel of 0.20, minimum notched Izod impact strength of 22.5 ft-lbs/in at 23°C, and zero percent water absorption. The material must be stabilized with 2.5 percent carbon black or equivalent ultraviolet stabilizer, formulated from 100 percent virgin resin as a cross-linked homopolymer of ethylene with intrinsic viscosity between 22.0 and 28.0 dl/g per ASTM D4020. Fabrication and assembly must occur in an indoor, climate-controlled shop with government inspection prior to delivery. Contractor personnel must be E-Verify screened with a verified candidate list provided within 10 business days of award. The Corps welcomes responses from all business categories, including small business and service-disabled veteran-owned small business firms.
