Water Well Treatment

The Department of the Air Force Global Strike Command's 341st Civil Engineering Squadron is seeking contractors to provide water well treatment services for disinfecting the water system at Missile Alert Facility (MAF) M-01 at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana. The contractor must provide all labor, equipment, and materials to completely disinfect the water system from the well through the chlorination system in the pump house, including shock chlorination, water disposal, removal and replacement of the HARMSCO sediment filter cartridge, and comprehensive water sampling and testing for various bacteria types. The work must comply with OSHA regulations and federal, state, and local environmental guidelines, with the contractor required to obtain necessary permits and submit detailed documentation of all disinfection activities and water sampling results. This is currently a market research effort through a Sources Sought notice, with interested parties required to submit qualifications summaries and complete a Contractor Capability Survey by 2:30 pm Mountain time on July 24, 2025. If the market research is successful, a separate pre-solicitation synopsis will be posted on SAM.gov for the formal procurement process.

No incumbent contractors or current service providers are identified in the documentation, and no specific contract value or budget range has been disclosed at this market research stage.
