This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to firms meeting small business criteria under NAICS Code 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction). No incumbent contractor information is provided in this sources sought notice. The contract contains conflicting budget estimates within the documentation, with initial language referencing a project magnitude between $25,000,000 and $100,000,000, though a secondary mention indicates a range of $500,000 to $1,000,000; clarification on the actual budget should be sought directly from the contracting office. The project involves specialized work requiring expertise in hydraulic systems, concrete restoration, and infrastructure rehabilitation, with the construction phasing and timeline to be determined during the formal acquisition process that will follow this market research phase.
