Deep Mining Geotechnical & Ground Control Research

The Deep Mining Geotechnical and Ground Control Research subcontract, issued by the CDC Office of Acquisition Services under the Department of Health and Human Services, focuses on enhancing mine design and hazard prediction. The project involves conducting specialized research and analysis on rock bursts, seismic events, and ground instability to support prime contractors on mining safety initiatives. Key technical requirements include the implementation of numerical modeling, uncertainty analysis, and the development of integrated decision-support systems that synthesize geological and geotechnical data. The scope of work demands high-level expertise in deep-mine ground control and high-stress geologic conditions. Selected providers will be responsible for delivering predictive models, technical reports, and specific ground-control recommendations. This effort is categorized under NAICS code 541330 and will be performed in Reno, Nevada, with a response deadline set for January 11, 2027.
