The Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service seeks a 10-year Blanket Purchase Agreement for well and solar panel/windmill maintenance, repair, and installation services at Fort Niobrara National Wildlife Refuge in Valentine, Nebraska, with quotations due July 3, 2026. This is a women-owned small business set-aside with multiple awards anticipated.

Place of performance is Fort Niobrara National Wildlife Refuge, Valentine, Nebraska. Work scope includes installation, repair, replacement, removal, and decommissioning of water pump mechanisms for windmills, well components for bison, and water tanks for livestock grazing; the government anticipates approximately 10 solar panels/windmills, 5 wells, and 3 water tanks requiring service over the contract term. The NAICS code is 221310, Water Supply and Irrigation Systems; PSC is F015, Natural Resources/Conservation–Well Drilling/Exploratory.

Contractors must demonstrate past performance with at least two similar services completed within three years. The contract is firm-fixed-price with a $200,000 call limit per order and a $700,000 authorized ceiling over 10 years (initial BPA July 31, 2026 through July 30, 2031, with service extension through June 30, 2036). Evaluation considers technical acceptability and price reasonableness. Contractors must respond to BPA calls within 48 hours and operate Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., except federal holidays. The government reserves the right to award directly to the geographically closest BPA holder when appropriate.
