Water Well Treatment

The Department of the Air Force Global Strike Command is seeking a contractor to provide comprehensive water well treatment services at Missile Alert Facility (MAF) M-01 located at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana. The contractor must supply all labor, equipment, and materials necessary to disinfect the entire water system from the well through the chlorination system in the pump house, following a detailed shock chlorination process that includes measuring static water levels, calculating and applying disinfectant solutions, conducting 24-hour treatment cycles, and performing comprehensive water sampling and testing through a licensed laboratory. The work requires strict adherence to environmental compliance and safety regulations, with payment contingent upon water samples demonstrating no bacterial presence and successful installation of new sediment filter cartridges. The solicitation was issued on July 31, 2025, with offers due by August 11, 2025 at 2:00 PM, and the contractor must complete all work within 60 calendar days of contract award. The planned delivery date is October 14, 2025, and the procurement follows standard federal contracting provisions with evaluation based on firm fixed-price terms.

This contract opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 221310 (Water Supply and Irrigation Systems) with a size standard of 600 employees, though the solicitation document indicates it was originally structured as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) procurement. No incumbent contractors or specific award values are mentioned in the available documentation, though the contract structure is established as a firm fixed-price arrangement for a single job. The work involves treating a single water well system that was originally drilled in 2018 to a depth of 1,175 feet with a static water level of 79.9 feet and a pumping capacity of 3.66 gallons per minute. Performance will occur at the remote Missile Alert Facility M-01 in Fergus County, Montana, requiring contractors to meet stringent base access control requirements and security clearances due to the sensitive military installation location. The contractor will be subject to Department of Labor wage determinations for Cascade County, Montana, with various occupational classifications and minimum wage requirements ranging from $13.75 to $54.56 per hour.
