About this opportunity

The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Alaska is seeking tree clearing and forestry mulching services for approximately 44 acres on Eielson Air Force Base through a small business set-aside design-build Request for Proposal (RFP) with Solicitation Number W911KB26RA015. The contractor must clear trees and brush, mulch all material into chips no larger than 3 feet long by 3 inches wide, and spread the mulch in piles not exceeding 6 inches in height throughout the project areas, with all stumps reduced or chipped to ground level. The work is intended to provide site access for a geotechnical site investigation and will require coordination with the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Award decisions will be made using lowest price technically acceptable source selection procedures, evaluating both price and non-price factors as outlined in the solicitation. All offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) prior to award, and the anticipated Notice to Proceed is December 17, 2025.

This procurement is designated as a total small business set-aside with no other specific set-aside categories mentioned, and no incumbent contractor information has been identified in this pre-solicitation notice. The project encompasses diverse vegetation conditions, including approximately 60% of trees measuring 4-8 inches in diameter, 30% measuring 2-4 inches in diameter, and 10% exceeding 8 inches in diameter, with contractors expected to encounter challenging site conditions including soft, boggy ground, standing water, snow, and steep slopes that may limit equipment access. The performance period for contract completion is approximately 120 calendar days, and while no specific award value is stated in this pre-solicitation notice, the scope and complexity of the work across 44 acres suggests a substantial contract value. Contractors should begin their SAM registration immediately when preparing proposals to ensure eligibility for award consideration.
