Install Wolf Abatement Fence, Juneau County, WI

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service is seeking to procure the installation of a high-tensile woven wire fence specifically designed for wolf abatement near Cutler, Wisconsin in Juneau County. This procurement falls under NAICS code 238990 (All Other Specialty Trade Contractors) and PSC category Y1PZ (Construction Of Other Non-Building Facilities), indicating specialized construction work for non-building facilities. The agency intends to issue a request for quotes rather than a formal solicitation, suggesting a streamlined procurement process. The solicitation and all related procurement documents will be made available on the System for Award Management (SAM) website on or around June 23, 2025. Interested parties are responsible for monitoring SAM for the solicitation release and any subsequent amendments, with questions directed to contracting officer Jim Roloff at james.g.roloff@usda.gov.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to small business concerns that meet the NAICS 238990 size standard of $19 million in average annual receipts. No incumbent contractors or potential award values are specified in the pre-solicitation notice. The procurement appears to be for a single fence installation project focused on wildlife management and agricultural protection in the specified Wisconsin location. The timeline indicates approximately 11 days between the pre-solicitation notice posting date of June 12, 2025, and the expected solicitation release date, providing interested contractors with advance notice to prepare for the upcoming opportunity. The specialized nature of wolf abatement fencing suggests this project addresses specific wildlife management needs in the rural Wisconsin agricultural area.
