About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Portland District, is soliciting quotes for conducting a performance test of the Oil Spill Prevention System (OSPS) at Foster Dam in Oregon. The contractor will be required to modify the OSPS into a closed-loop system and introduce 55 gallons of ISO 68 Turbine oil in two stages to test the system's ability to meet EPA National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit limits of 5mg/L for oil content. The contractor must provide all necessary equipment including three 50-gpm pumps, a baker tank, oil metering pump, hydrocarbon detection equipment, and maintain a spill response team on-site throughout testing. This is a Request for Quotes under FAR Part 13 for a firm fixed-price contract, with evaluation criteria based on the technical approach and pricing structure. The solicitation deadline has been extended to August 1, 2025, at 12:00 PM PT, with quotes to be submitted electronically to the contracting officers.

This opportunity is designated as a 100% Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS Code 561210 (Facilities Support Services) with a small business size standard of $47 million in annual receipts. No incumbent contractor information is provided in the solicitation documentation. While no specific contract value is disclosed, the simplified acquisition procedures under FAR Part 13 suggest the contract value is likely under the simplified acquisition threshold. The performance period is 45 calendar days from contract award, with work scheduled to occur between August 18, 2025, and October 3, 2025. The place of performance is Foster Dam in Sweet Home, Oregon, where the contractor will conduct comprehensive testing of the oil spill prevention infrastructure to ensure compliance with environmental regulations.
