HICS Boring and Erosion

Solicitation FA462626R0019 is a total small business set-aside for a five-year firm-fixed-price requirements contract to provide boring and erosion repair services at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana. The project supports the 10th, 12th, and 490th Missile Squadrons across the missile field, covering up to 40 locations within a 140-mile radius of Great Falls. The scope of work includes directional boring for 4-inch and 6-inch conduits at depths of at least five feet below creek or riverbanks, as well as erosion control measures such as the placement of riprap, fill dirt, topsoil, and the installation of water turn outs, broad-based dips, and wattles. The maximum aggregate value of the contract is 2,000,000 dollars. The award will be based on a best value tradeoff approach, where past performance is considered significantly more important than price. Evaluation focuses on the recency, relevancy, and quality of projects completed within the last five years. Bidders must provide a bid guarantee of 20 percent of the bid price or 100,000 dollars, whichever is less, and the resulting contract requires performance and payment bonds at 100 percent of the award value. All work must comply with OSHA safety standards and is subject to final inspection at each site, with a seven-day window to correct any identified deficiencies before final payment is issued. Proposals must be submitted electronically via DoD SAFE in PDF format, divided into technical, past performance, and pricing volumes.
