About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Engineer Research and Development Center is seeking research and development services to modernize wetland functional assessment tools using the Hydrogeomorphic (HGM) Approach through a Request for Quote (RFQ) W912HZ25QA014. The contractor will develop four primary deliverables: a web-based tool for HGM data collection with mobile and desktop compatibility, an automation tool for HGM data analysis to increase speed and consistency, data integration and visualization tools including interactive dashboards, and an optional tool refinement task. The procurement requires contractors to have expertise in developing streamlined, web-based solutions that enhance wetland ecosystem assessment methods and improve data collection efficiency, analysis consistency, and decision-making capabilities. Proposals will be evaluated based on three factors: technical acceptability (ability to provide all items and meet delivery schedules), satisfactory past performance using the Past Performance Information Retrieval System, and price reasonableness determined through competitive quotes. Electronic quotes must be submitted by 3:00 PM CST on Thursday, September 11, 2025, to Contract Specialist Shinita Jordan and Contracting Officer Sonia Boyd, with required documentation including Standard Form 18, completed pricing schedule, and comprehensive proposal materials.

This procurement is designated as full and open competition with no set-aside restrictions, classified under NAICS code 541715 with a size standard of 1,000 employees, and represents a new requirement with no incumbent contractor. The solicitation has undergone two amendments, with the most recent changing the place of performance from the University of Montana to the contractor's facility. The contract structure includes a firm-fixed-price base year running from September 29, 2025 to September 28, 2026, with an optional one-year extension available. Each task requires monthly progress reports, proof-of-concept tool development, and comprehensive user guides as deliverables, with yearly reports due within 60 days of each performance period. The procurement is conducted under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures, and contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database to be eligible for award. Performance will occur at the contractor's facility rather than at a government location, allowing flexibility in how the research and development work is conducted.
