About this opportunity

The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Seattle District, has issued a Special Notice regarding a phytoplankton analytical service requirement. The notice indicates USACE's intent to issue a Request for Quote (RFQ) for firm-fixed price services to support water quality sampling programs across five dams: Chief Joseph, Libby, Albeni Falls, Howard Hanson, and Mud Mountain. This procurement will be conducted as a non-personal services contract, meaning service providers will operate under the direct accountability of the contractor rather than USACE. The work is classified under Environmental Consulting Services (NAICS 541620) and Special Studies/Analysis - Water Quality (PSC B533). This opportunity is designated as a 100% Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to small business entities only.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to identify capable small business vendors qualified to provide plankton analytical services for the water quality sampling program. The estimated solicitation posting date is March 4, 2026, with a response deadline of March 17, 2026; however, responding to this notice does not guarantee receipt of the RFQ. All interested vendors must proactively notify the Contract Specialist, Tyler J. Luke, at tyler.j.luke@usace.army.mil to express their interest and capability. Only small businesses are eligible to participate in this 100% small business set-aside acquisition. Interested vendors should submit supporting documentation demonstrating their capabilities and technical specifications, as responses will be evaluated for their suitability to perform the requirement and may be considered for future related acquisitions.
