About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Huntington District has issued a Special Notice announcing an Industry Day event scheduled for January 21, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. at the McCracken County Public Library in Paducah, Kentucky. This notice is a market research effort aimed at engaging potential contractors interested in competing for an upcoming Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) focused on dredging operations for the Great Lakes and Ohio River Division's Regional Rivers Repair Fleet. The notice clarifies that this Industry Day is not a formal solicitation announcement and does not restrict the government to any particular acquisition approach. Interested vendors must register by completing a short form available online to provide contact information for the event.

The primary objective of this Industry Day is to identify and solicit interest from qualified contractors capable of executing a five-year MATOC for dredging operations across four river districts. Contractors must demonstrate specific capabilities and resources, including specialized maritime equipment such as towboats with minimum 500 horsepower, derrickboats capable of lifting up to 120 tons, floating excavators suitable for dredging up to 25 feet deep, and deck flat barges for material transport. Interested parties should register online and may direct questions to Eileen Hodges, Deputy for Small Business at the Huntington District, via phone at 304-399-5632 or email at eileen.s.hodges@usace.army.mil. The draft minimum requirements document outlines that successful contractors must achieve a minimum dredging production rate of 150 cubic yards per hour, with potential to reach 300 cubic yards per hour for high-demand projects. Eligible contractors will have the opportunity to work on navigation, flood risk management, and environmental restoration initiatives across critical waterways in the Great Lakes and Ohio River Division.
