Herman Gulch Toilet Replacement in the Arapaho & Roosevelt National Forests & Pawnee National Grassland

The U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, specifically the Rocky Mountain Region (Region 2), is seeking a small business contractor to replace the toilet facilities at the Herman Gulch Trailhead in the Arapaho & Roosevelt National Forests and Pawnee National Grassland. The project involves transporting and installing a precast concrete double vault toilet, which requires demolishing an existing abandoned concrete pad and vault, conducting site excavation, grading, and resetting parking features. Contractors interested in this opportunity must submit a Statement of Capability within 15 days of the synopsis, including company details, Unique Entity Identification, and business classification. The primary evaluation criteria will focus on the contractor's ability to provide an ADA-compliant facility that is functional, attractive, and safe. All responses must be emailed to Erick Plamann at erick.plamann@usda.gov by June 18, 2025, with the eventual solicitation to be governed by Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 15.

The contract is a total small business set-aside, classified under NAICS code 236220 for Commercial and Institutional Building Construction, with an anticipated budget between $100,000 and $250,000. Potential contractors should note the project's specific requirements for a precast concrete double vault toilet installation, which includes comprehensive site preparation and restoration. The Forest Service is seeking businesses with relevant construction experience, potentially including 8(a), veteran-owned, or HUBZone certified companies. While no incumbent contractor is specifically mentioned, the project appears to be a targeted infrastructure improvement for the Clear Creek Ranger District. The solicitation suggests a relatively short timeline for project completion, with interested parties expected to demonstrate their capability to efficiently execute the toilet replacement within the specified parameters.
