About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Galveston is seeking contractors for maintenance dredging services in the Houston Ship Channel from Redfish Island to Beacon 78. The project involves hopper dredging approximately 2,000,000 cubic yards of material to be placed at an ocean disposal site, with optional work including dredging the Bayport Flare (1,700,000 cubic yards) and adjacent areas (500,000 cubic yards), plus potential sea turtle relocation services. Contractors must demonstrate experience with hopper dredging operations and the capability to produce at least 20,000 cubic yards per day using trailing suction dredge equipment. The sources sought synopsis specifically targets small business contractors across multiple categories including small business, 8(a), HUB-Zone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, Economically Disadvantaged Woman-Owned, and Woman-Owned Small Business designations. Interested firms must respond by July 3, 2025, at 10:00 AM Central Time and maintain active registration in SAM.gov, with the anticipated solicitation release scheduled for September 16, 2025, and bid opening on October 16, 2025.
This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations despite targeting small business categories, and no incumbent contractors are identified in the documentation. The estimated construction value ranges between $25 million and $100 million, reflecting the substantial scope of the dredging operations. The base contract performance period is 172 calendar days, which extends to 310 days if both optional dredging components are exercised by the government. The project encompasses a total potential volume of up to 4,200,000 cubic yards when including all optional work components. Contract award is anticipated around December 2, 2025, following the evaluation process that will begin after the October bid opening.
