The Department of the Interior National Park Service Intermountain Region is seeking small business contractors for a drainage improvement project at Saratoga National Historical Park's Tour Stop 7 in Stillwater, New York. The project involves site grading, drainage system installation, and pavement work, with specific requirements including maintaining park operations during construction and minimizing visitor impact. Contractors must complete a Sources Sought Survey Questionnaire by May 5, 2025, at 2:00 PM Eastern Time, demonstrating their capability to execute the project within the specified parameters. The solicitation will use an evaluation process focused on small business qualifications, past project experience, and ability to complete the construction within a 31-calendar day performance period. A competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) is planned for release on June 15, 2025, targeting a Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) contract award.

The project does not have a specific small business set-aside, but is targeted exclusively at small businesses in the NAICS code 237990 with a size standard of $45 million. The estimated construction budget ranges from $250,000 to $500,000, with potential winter construction considerations. Contractors will be required to provide bid, performance, and payment bonds, and must demonstrate technical capability to handle complex site work including archaeological monitoring during ground disturbance. The project scope includes precise site preparation, installation of composite filter socks, erosion control measures, and comprehensive drainage infrastructure improvements. Successful bidders will need to navigate the technical challenges of working within a historically significant site while implementing critical water management solutions.
