Romo-supply off-road diesel fuel

The National Park Service Intermountain Region seeks supply and delivery of two percent certified diesel biofuel for off-road use to Rocky Mountain National Park, with quotations due May 19, 2026 at 11:00 AM MDT and award anticipated by May 25. This is a total small business set-aside.

Place of performance is Fall River Pass at the Alpine Visitor Center, located at approximately 11,796 feet elevation near Estes Park, Colorado, accessible via U.S. Highway 34, with deliveries required during the main visitation season from May through October. The contract period runs June 1, 2026 through May 31, 2027, with up to four optional one-year extension periods. Fuel deliveries of approximately 2,000 gallons occur four times during the season: prior to Memorial Day, during the week of July 4th, the first week of August, and during Labor Day week. The delivery location features narrow, steep, winding roads subject to seasonal closures and hazardous conditions; contractors must call (970) 586-1222 to verify road conditions before delivery attempts and should expect delays up to five hours each way.

The procurement specifies NAICS 324110, Petroleum Refineries, with a small business size standard of 1,500 employees. Quotations must provide a mark-up or add-on price to the local Denver, Colorado rack price rounded to the nearest cent, including delivery, and documentation of at least one prior experience delivering fuel to similar high-alpine locations within the last five years. The single 4,000-gallon underground double-wall fiberglass reinforced plastic tank requires contractor responsibility for product ownership and transportation, liability for spills, and compliance with EPA, OSHA, and Colorado Department of Transportation regulations. All quoters must be registered in SAM as active small businesses with a valid Unique Entity Identifier at quote submission. Evaluation is based on price reasonableness, technical capability (fuel type and equipment), and prior high-alpine delivery experience. Pricing is firm-fixed with economic price adjustment provisions; payment processes through the Invoice Processing Platform system.
