Performance is governed by a detailed Performance Work Statement, supported by multiple attachments including maps, a wage determination under the Service Contract Act, and a schedule of items for pricing. The contract has a period of performance from August 1, 2026, through October 1, 2028, with a potential six-month extension available at the government’s discretion. Work will occur across approximately 92 miles of designated roads, with optional additional work covering 49 more miles.
