The U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service R2-Rocky Mountain Region is soliciting proposals for the replacement of boat launch gates at three locations within the Arapaho & Roosevelt National Forests and Pawnee National Grassland in the Sulphur Ranger District. The contractor will install five government-furnished gates total: three gates at Green Ridge Boat Ramp (one at the boat ramp and two on an adjacent road), one gate at Stillwater Boat Ramp, and one gate at Sunset Boat Ramp. The contractor must provide all necessary hardware, materials, and installation services, including site preparation, excavation, concrete work, and revegetation of disturbed areas, while the government will furnish the gates, Yale locks, and seed mix. The contract will be awarded using a lowest price technically acceptable evaluation method. Proposals are due by 1:00 PM Central Time on July 18, 2025, with work required to begin within 10 calendar days of notice to proceed and complete within 30 calendar days total.

This opportunity is set aside 100% for small businesses under NAICS code 238290 (Other Building Equipment Contractors) with a project magnitude under $25,000. No current contractors or incumbents are identified in the solicitation documents. The Schedule of Items includes mobilization as a lump sum and individual gate installations for two 20-foot gates, one 50-foot gate, and one 32-foot gate at the specified locations. The work must be performed at boat ramp sites located in Grand Lake and Granby, Colorado, with the contractor required to wash equipment prior to entering National Forest Land and ensure all equipment is leak-free to prevent environmental contamination. The project falls under PSC code 5660 for Fencing, Fences, Gates and Components, reflecting the specialized nature of the gate installation work required.
