C--Tomahawk Dam Title I & II

The Bureau of Land Management is soliciting qualified small businesses to provide architectural and engineering services for the rehabilitation of the Tomahawk Detention Dam in Glasgow, Montana, under a total small business set-aside with NAICS code 541330. The solicitation, numbered 140L0626Q0009, requires proposers to demonstrate specialized experience in earthen embankment dams, outlet works design, and dam-safety infrastructure, with an emphasis on geotechnical, hydraulic, and civil engineering expertise. Proposals must be submitted as a single PDF file not exceeding 50 pages and 25 MB in size, with all content formatted using the SF 330 form and submitted via email to specified BLM contacts by the deadline of May 26, 2026, at 12:00 PM MT. Evaluation is based solely on technical merit, with no tradeoff for price, and centers on five non-price factors: specialized experience and technical competence, professional qualifications of key personnel, capacity to meet deadlines, familiarity with the project region, and past performance—all assessed through a level-of-confidence rating system. The government will select the most highly qualified firm and then negotiate a fair and reasonable price, explicitly avoiding a lowest price technically acceptable approach. Key personnel must be identified with detailed resumes including professional registration, licensure, and direct project experience, and subcontractors must be disclosed and approved prior to performance. The place of performance is firmly established as Glasgow, Montana, and proposers are expected to show local knowledge and experience working in similar environments. There is no pricing data provided in the solicitation, and the contract value remains unestimated. All offerors must certify their small business status under the $25.5 million size standard and provide their Unique Entity Identifier from SAM.gov, with no affirmative socioeconomic certifications required beyond small business status. No formal inspections, acceptance criteria, or payment details are specified, and while Section H allows for agency-inserted special requirements, none are currently defined. The contracting officer will manage the contract, but no assigned COR, COTR, or PCO names are listed.
