FY 25 ORV ramp sand and clay order

The National Park Service's Outer Banks Group is procuring sand and clay materials for Off Road Vehicle (ORV) ramp maintenance on Ocracoke Island, North Carolina through a Request for Quotation (RFQ No. 140P5325Q0022). The solicitation requires a vendor to provide all necessary personnel, materials, and equipment to deliver construction-grade sand and clay materials that meet stringent specifications including local sourcing requirements, zero invasive species content, and specific gradation standards verified through independent laboratory testing. The government intends to award a firm-fixed price commercial contract based on the best value determination, evaluating offers on technical acceptability of materials and price in accordance with FAR Part 12 and FAR Part 19. Interested vendors must submit questions to Ashley Warcewicz at the National Park Service by July 18, 2025, at 5:00 PM EDT, with phone calls not accepted. The final quote submission deadline is July 31, 2025, at 5:00 PM EDT, and all contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database prior to award.

This opportunity is designated as a 100% Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 212321 (Construction Sand and Gravel Mining), with no incumbent contractor identified in the available documentation. The contract includes a base requirement of 2,000 cubic yards of sand material for Ramp 72, plus four optional line items that can be exercised within 180 days of award depending on fund availability: three options for additional 2,000 cubic yards of sand each, and one option for 3,000 cubic yards of clay material. The contract performance period extends from September 15, 2025, to May 15, 2026, with material deliveries restricted to weekdays between 7:00 AM and 3:30 PM. All work will be performed on Ocracoke Island, North Carolina, requiring contractors to coordinate ferry transportation and manage logistics for delivering materials to the remote barrier island location. While specific contract values are not disclosed in the solicitation, the substantial quantities of materials and specialized delivery requirements to an island location suggest a significant procurement opportunity for qualified small businesses.
