The total performance period is 120 calendar days after the notice to proceed. Submissions must be delivered in PDF format to the contracting specialist by September 24, 2026, at 5:00 PM EDT. Award will be based on the ranking of the top three most qualified firms, and the selected contractor must provide performance and payment bonds and maintain active SAM registration.

The primary responsibility is to identify and respond to the presence of threatened or endangered species in real time, with an immediate and mandatory shutdown of all work if such species are detected. The scope of work is centered on compliance, requiring continuous surveillance by qualified personnel to prevent habitat disruption and legal violations. All monitoring must be conducted in alignment with federal conservation standards and regulatory expectations set forth by the Department of the Interior.
