Gravel supply

The Bureau of Land Management is soliciting quotes for the supply of 2,900 tons of 3/4 inch crushed road base gravel for parking lot surfacing at two Montana locations. The procurement requires delivery of 1,450 tons to each of two sites: one near Belfry, Montana in the Elk Basin area off Silvertip Road, and another near a new parking area off Highway 308. Contractors must provide hard, durable aggregate material that is uniformly graded from coarse to fine and free of vegetable matter and clay balls, with BLM staff conducting inspections at delivery sites. The evaluation will be based solely on price, with award going to the responsible offeror providing the best value to the government. The original quote submission deadline was September 3, 2025 at 1700 Mountain Time, but Amendment 0001 extended this to September 5, 2025 at 1:00 PM, while also clarifying vehicle access capabilities and removing past performance evaluation requirements.

This procurement is designated as a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 212319 for Other Crushed and Broken Stone Mining and Quarrying, utilizing simplified acquisition procedures with a firm fixed-price purchase order structure. No incumbent contractors or specific award values are mentioned in the solicitation documents. The 2,900 total tons must be delivered by November 1, 2025, split equally between the two specified Montana locations with precise GPS coordinates provided for each site. Contractors are responsible for weighing the material at their own expense and providing weight receipts for each load to the Government Contracting Officer, with payment made on a per-ton basis. All delivery locations have been confirmed to accommodate semi-truck access and turnaround capabilities based on clarifications provided in the amendment.
