Jarvie electrial distribution rehab

The Bureau of Land Management is seeking quotations for the Jarvie Electrical Distribution Rehabilitation project, which involves comprehensive electrical infrastructure upgrades at the John Jarvie Historic Ranch in Dutch John, Utah. The project requires removing an existing wood utility building housing electrical equipment and replacing two 200-amp single-phase electrical services with one 400-amp single-phase service, along with installing an underground electrical vault to intercept existing conduits feeding sub-panels throughout the historic complex. Contractors must provide all materials, labor, and supervision to complete the electrical distribution rehabilitation in accordance with NFPA 70 and ICC Building Codes, with delivery required within 90 days after Notice to Proceed. The award will be made to the responsible contractor submitting the lowest-priced quote that meets all solicitation requirements. Key dates include questions due by June 24, 2025, and quotations due by July 9, 2025 at 2:00 PM MDT, following a site visit that was held on June 18, 2025.

While initially described as not using a set-aside designation in the main solicitation notice, one of the government files indicates this is actually a small business set-aside under NAICS code 237130 with a size standard of $45 million. The contract is structured as a firm fixed-price construction project with an estimated value between $25,000 and $100,000, broken down into three primary line items: mobilization and bonding, building demolition, and new electrical service installation. The work will be performed at the John Jarvie Historic Ranch located approximately 35 miles north of Vernal, Utah, accessible via multiple route options from Utah, Colorado, and Wyoming. Depending on the final contract value, the successful contractor may need to provide alternative payment protections or performance and payment bonds, and must comply with federal construction wage requirements including Davis-Bacon Act prevailing wages for the applicable Utah counties.
