About this opportunity

The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Little Rock District is seeking a small business contractor to replace the South Side Waterline System at the Pine Bluff Arsenal. The project involves upgrading an existing water distribution system that has been in service since 1942-1959, which currently serves an active installation with approximately 350,000 gallons of water per day. The replacement will include new piping, valves, hydrants, and related appurtenances across various pipe sizes ranging from 3" to 16" diameter, totaling approximately 114,456 linear feet. The acquisition will utilize a two-phased source selection process evaluating offerors based on demonstrated technical competence and qualifications, following FAR Part 15 Best Value trade-off Evaluation criteria. Prospective offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and Procurement Integrated Enterprise Environment (PIEE), with an estimated solicitation issue date of May 2, 2025, and proposal due date of August 15, 2025.

The contract is designated as a Total Small Business Set-Aside with a NAICS code of 237110 and a size standard of $45 million. The project requires maintaining operational water service throughout construction, with the new system designed to provide adequate water pressure and flow for domestic and fire protection needs. The system comprises 328 hydrants, 186 valves, and multiple pipe diameters, with the goal of replacing the existing asbestos cement and cast-iron infrastructure. The government anticipates awarding the contract around September 29, 2025, with the successful contractor responsible for installing a new water distribution system that does not connect to existing mains except at specific facility entrance points. Potential bidders can obtain solicitation details through SAM.gov and PIEE websites, with point of contact information provided for Marcus Mitchell and Deborah Oswalt from the USACE.
