About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Portland District is conducting a Sources Sought market survey to identify contractors capable of performing clamshell dredging operations in the Yaquina River downstream of Toledo, Oregon. This is a pre-solicitation notice and does not constitute a commitment to award a contract; rather, it is intended to determine the availability, capabilities, and qualifications of interested vendors for future dredging maintenance requirements. Respondents must submit general information including point of contact details, CAGE Code, Unique Entity ID, and a Statement of Capability documenting their skills, experience, and relevant past projects. The government will evaluate responses based on contractor capability and qualifications to support critical dredging work. The response deadline is March 4, 2026, and all interested contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) prior to submission.

This opportunity carries no set-aside designation and no incumbent contractor information is provided in the synopsis. The project scope encompasses approximately 850,000 cubic yards of material removal, with the in-water work window scheduled from July 1, 2026 through October 31, 2026. The actual contract value and final scope are contingent upon project needs and funding availability. Small businesses meeting the size standards under NAICS 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) or other similar classifications are encouraged to identify their specific socioeconomic status category, including 8(a), HUBZone, Veteran Owned Small Business, Woman Owned Small Business, or Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business designations.
