About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Huntington District, has issued a Special Notice announcing an Industry Day scheduled for March 5, 2025, at the Robert C. Byrd Locks and Dam in Gallipolis Ferry, West Virginia. The event is specifically targeted at manufacturers, designers, and installers of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) materials for lock and dam infrastructure projects. The Corps is seeking industry feedback and expertise for potential upcoming projects involving the design, fabrication, delivery, and installation of FRP miter gates and dam bulkheads at several Ohio River Lock and Dam Projects. This market research effort aims to develop comprehensive plans and specifications for custom FRP supply items and installation methods that meet modern industry standards. Specific sites under consideration include the Racine Locks and Dam and the Robert C. Byrd Locks and Dam.
Contractors with specific NAICS codes, including 326198, 326199, 325211 for FRP manufacturing, and additional codes like 237990 or 541330 for prime or subcontracting, are highly encouraged to attend. Interested participants must contact Eileen Hodges at Eileen.S.Hodges@usace.army.mil or 304-399-5632 to confirm attendance and potentially reserve individual consultation time on March 6, 2025. All attendees are required to complete a Security Information Form, which must be submitted via password-protected email to Stephen R. Curry in the Security Office, with special provisions for non-U.S. citizens. The Industry Day will include a brief tour of the lock facility and an opportunity for detailed discussions about design, fabrication, delivery, installation, and site preparation. While the event is not a formal solicitation or contract commitment, it represents a critical opportunity for companies with FRP expertise to engage directly with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and potentially influence future infrastructure projects.
