The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management New Mexico Region seeks two prefabricated pedestrian bridges for delivery to Lincoln County, New Mexico, with quotes due September 11, 2026. The procurement is set-aside for small business, specifically WOSB and EDWOSB concerns.

All structural design must be performed by or under direct supervision of a Licensed Professional Engineer with PE-stamped drawings. Bridges must meet 90 PSF live load, 43 PSF ground snow load, 90 MPH wind with 115 MPH gust (Exposure B), and Seismic Zone 2B per AASHTO standards.
