About this opportunity
The USDA Forest Service is soliciting quotes for the replacement of a wooden bridge on the Sheltowee Trace Section/Wintergreen Trail in the Daniel Boone National Forest, Kentucky. The project involves removing an existing 24-foot wooden bridge and installing a new 24.5-foot treated sawn stringer timber bridge with a 4-foot width, while reusing existing bridge foundations and incorporating a railing system constructed with Southern Pine timber. Contractors must have active Sam.gov registration and submit both price and technical quotes, including past performance information, experience details, and a technical approach narrative. The government will evaluate quotes based on best value, with non-price factors being equally important to price considerations. Quotes are due by August 29, 2025, at 5:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, and the solicitation is being conducted under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures.
This procurement is designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 321999 with a size standard of 500 employees, and the contract value is disclosed as under $20,000. No current incumbents or potential contractors are identified in the solicitation materials. The period of performance runs from September 2, 2025, to December 31, 2025, providing approximately four months for project completion. The work will be performed at the London Ranger District location at 395 Laurel Lake Rd, London, KY 40744, with the Forest Service emphasizing that contractors are responsible for understanding site conditions without relying on organized site visits. The contract will be awarded on a firm-fixed-price basis, and the project must comply with U.S. Forest Service standards while using native materials for approach reconstruction.
