DK-BF gravel purchase

The Bureau of Reclamation, Missouri Basin Region, within the Department of the Interior, is seeking to procure 2,000 tons of crushed limestone gravel material through a Commercial Request for Quote (RFQ). The limestone gravel must meet specific gradation requirements, with 30% of particles on the No. 4 sieve containing one or more fractured faces, and must be sourced from a state-approved commercial pit in South Dakota that has satisfied archaeological and cultural clearances. The material will be delivered to the Fruitdale Area at Belle Fourche Reservoir, located approximately 10 miles east of Belle Fourche, South Dakota, where it will be stockpiled in an existing gravel pile. The procurement will utilize Lowest Price Technically Acceptable evaluation criteria, and potential vendors must be actively registered in SAM.gov prior to submitting quotations. The solicitation is planned to be posted on SAM.gov around July 15, 2025, with delivery required on or before July 31, 2025.

This procurement opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 212321 (Construction Sand and Gravel Mining) and product service code 5610 (Mineral Construction Materials, Bulk). The contract requires delivery of exactly 2,000 tons of crushed limestone gravel material within a tight timeframe, as vendors will have approximately two weeks from solicitation posting to delivery completion. No incumbent contractors or potential award values are specified in the pre-solicitation notice. The geographic constraint requiring sourcing from South Dakota commercial pits that have met specific regulatory clearances may limit the pool of eligible vendors. The delivery location at Belle Fourche Reservoir indicates this procurement likely supports ongoing infrastructure maintenance or construction activities in the region.
