S--Fence & Stump Removal services

Solicitation 140D0426Q0808 is a firm-fixed-price request for quotations issued by the Department of the Interior's Interior Business Center for fence and stump removal services at the Hains Point Golf Course in Washington, DC. Set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 561730, the project requires the removal of hazardous trees and debris, with a strict performance period of 30 calendar days from the date of award. The scope of work emphasizes environmental compliance, requiring the implementation of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan and adherence to EPA and OSHA regulations. Technical requirements specify that stump and fence post removal must be performed via grubbing rather than grinding, and the contractor must ensure the protection of Critical Root Zones using turf mats. The contract mandates high standards for personnel and oversight, requiring a fluent English-speaking on-site supervisor and the constant presence of an ISA-certified arborist during work within Critical Root Zones. Award decisions will be based on best value using a trade-off methodology, prioritizing technical capability and past performance over price. Contractors must comply with Department of Labor Wage Determination 2015-4281 Rev 38 and submit all invoices electronically through the U.S. Treasury’s Invoice Processing Platform. Bidders are required to submit two separate volumes—technical and price—by August 17, 2026, with the technical volume limited to 30 pages.
