ESR_TEMP FENCE REPAIR & INSTALL_Vale District, OR

The Bureau of Land Management Oregon-Washington State Office is seeking contractors for fence repair and installation services across multiple locations in the Vale District, Oregon. The project involves repairing and installing approximately 771,468 linear feet of 3-4 wire fence, including T-posts, barbed and smooth wire, H-braces, rock jacks, wire gates, rock cribs, and stays across locations in Malheur and Baker Counties including Durkee, Badland Complex, Town Gulch, and Hole in the Ground areas. Contractors must demonstrate minimum experience requirements of having completed two similar fence projects within the past six years to qualify for consideration. The evaluation will be conducted using a lowest-price technically acceptable approach, meaning the award will go to the responsible offeror who submits the lowest price while meeting all technical requirements. Proposals were originally due August 6, 2025, at 1:30 PM Pacific Time, with a site visit having been conducted on July 22, 2025, where two potential contractors (L and S Fencing LLC and IO Environmental & Infrastructure) attended.

This procurement is designated as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to qualified SDVOSB contractors. The contract value is estimated to fall between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000, structured as a firm fixed price arrangement. The performance period spans 365 calendar days from September 1, 2025, to August 31, 2026, with contractors having 10 calendar days to mobilize and begin work after contract award. Work will be performed across multiple remote locations in Malheur and Baker Counties, Oregon, with the primary delivery location being the BLM Vale District Office at 102 Warehouse Oregon Street in Vale, Oregon. Amendment 0001 has provided additional clarifications regarding equipment usage, vegetation removal requirements, and payment terms, including approval for progress payments with Contracting Officer's Representative authorization.
