Denison Valve Replacement

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Tulsa District is conducting a sources sought market survey for the Denison Valve Replacement project at the Denison Dam Powerhouse in Texas. The scope of work involves providing and installing two 8-inch station service draft tube drain gate valves and two 16-inch unwatering gate valves, alongside the removal and disposal of existing valves. Additionally, the contractor will be responsible for the inspection and refurbishment of valve operating equipment, including bearings, bushings, shafts, and stem extensions. Due to the location of the work within a manhole approximately 30 feet deep, the project requires specialized access, lifting equipment, and strict confined space safety measures. The estimated construction phase is 365 calendar days, with a strategic planning price range between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. This procurement is categorized under NAICS code 237990 for Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction. While this is currently a market survey and not a formal solicitation, the government is evaluating potential set-aside designations such as HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB, or Section 8(a) based on the capabilities of the responses. Interested firms must be registered in SAM and provide their business size, CAGE code, and bonding capabilities. The formal solicitation is anticipated to be issued around January 2027, with an estimated due date in February 2027. Responses to this sources sought synopsis are due by December 3, 2026, and must be limited to five pages.
