GLCA 210865 Replace Wahweep Government Dock

The National Park Service Denver Service Center is seeking design-build services to replace the deteriorated Wahweap Government Dock at Glen Canyon National Recreation Area in Page, Arizona. The project requires construction of a new dock structure with utilities and breakwater capable of withstanding environmental hazards, replacing the existing 40-year-old facility that has reached the end of its useful life. Prospective contractors must maintain active SAM registration and possess a valid UEI number to participate in this procurement. The evaluation process will utilize a best-value trade-off methodology, with technical and non-price factors including technical approach, contractor qualifications, key personnel, schedule management, and past performance weighing significantly more than price considerations. The formal Request for Proposals (RFP 140P2025R0020) will be released electronically through SAM.gov on September 22, 2025, with the NPS planning to conduct a pre-proposal conference and site visit following RFP issuance.

This procurement is designated as a small business set-aside with a size standard threshold of $45 million, though no current incumbent contractors are identified in the available documentation. The contract value is estimated to range between $5 million and $10 million, structured as a firm-fixed-price arrangement requiring bid, performance, and payment bonds from the successful contractor. The performance period is established at 393 calendar days from contract award, providing the selected firm with approximately 13 months to complete the dock replacement project. The procurement falls under NAICS code 237310 for Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction, reflecting the specialized marine infrastructure construction requirements of this waterfront facility replacement initiative.
