This contract carries no small business set-aside designation, as it is restricted to MATOC pre-selected contractors. The estimated price range for the project is $10 million to $20 million, with a firm-fixed-price contract type and a tentative completion date of Fall 2026. The project involves substantial earthwork including 2,775 cubic yards of subexcavation and 8,700 cubic yards of geotextile stabilization, along with over 411,800 square yards of asphalt surface treatments and multiple culvert replacements. A government-provided materials source may be available at the Twin Cabin quarry site to support construction activities. Prospective offerors are encouraged to conduct site visits during fall months, as access after October 1 becomes weather-dependent and requires coordination with the Salmon Challis National Forest.
