INJECTION WELL FAILURE MODE EVALUATION

The Department of the Interior, through the Reclamation Contracting Activity, is soliciting quotes for an Injection Well Failure Mode Evaluation at the Paradox Valley Unit in western Colorado. This total small business set-aside under NAICS 541690 requires a contractor to identify, evaluate, and document potential risks and failure modes for the surface, subsurface, and reservoir systems of the PVU Injection Well. The scope of work includes a comprehensive system review of project documentation, the definition of failure indicators, and the recommendation of monitoring and diagnostic methods. Key deliverables include a draft and final report, which must be signed and stamped by a registered professional engineer, and participation in bi-weekly progress meetings. The government intends to award a single fixed-price purchase order based on the lowest price, technically acceptable (LPTA) offer. Technical evaluations will focus on the proposed methods, work schedule, quality control plan, and personnel qualifications, specifically requiring a minimum of ten years of relevant industry experience in deep brine disposal wells. Past performance will be rated as acceptable or not acceptable, though a lack of past performance is also considered acceptable. The period of performance is scheduled from January 20, 2027, through April 30, 2027. Quotes must be submitted via email by November 10, 2026, and all payment requests must be processed through the Invoice Processing Platform.
