About this opportunity

Special Notice W912PM26RA004, issued by the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Wilmington, solicits construction services for the Philpott Anchors and Instrumentation Construction project at Philpott Lake Dam in Henry and Franklin Counties, Virginia. This is a draft solicitation announcement, meaning proposals will not be accepted at this time, and the notice serves primarily to inform the industry of an upcoming procurement opportunity and invite participation in an industry day meeting. The estimated contract value ranges between $5,000,000 and $10,000,000 with a firm-fixed price structure. The procurement is structured as an Invitation for Bid (IFB) and was posted on December 22, 2025, with a current solicitation due date of January 21, 2029. The notice is classified under NAICS 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) and PSC Z2KA (Repair or Alteration of Dams).

The project's primary objective is to enhance the structural monitoring capabilities of Philpott Lake Dam by installing spillway anchors, anchor load sensors, inclinometers, and automating existing crack gauges and piezometers while maintaining the dam's operational status throughout construction. An industry day meeting is scheduled for January 21, 2026, at 9:00 AM EST at the Philpott Lake Visitor Center and Museum in Bassett, Virginia, with RSVP required by 3:00 PM ET on January 16, 2026, to troy.d.small@usace.army.mil and jenifer.m.garland@usace.army.mil.
