AI Contract Overview
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Portland District, is conducting a market survey under Sources Sought announcement PAN26P30974 to identify qualified vendors capable of supplying specialized materials for the US Moorings Machine Shop. This is not a solicitation for proposals or a commitment to award a contract; it is solely intended to assess industry capabilities, small business participation potential, and technical readiness. Vendors are required to submit a Point of Contact, their CAGE Code and Unique Entity ID verified through SAM.gov, and a Statement of Capability highlighting relevant experience and technical competence, particularly in areas such as in-water pile driving. A critical requirement is a Capability Statement that demonstrates how proposed materials meet the precise dimensional, metallurgical, and fabrication specifications outlined in Attachment 01, which includes items like stainless steel and bronze hollow bars cut to specific nominal lengths, such as 12-foot sections from 24-foot bars. Participation is open to all entities, but small businesses under NAICS code 331210 (with a 1,000-employee size standard) are encouraged to disclose their socioeconomic status, such as 8(a), HUBZone, VOSB, SDVOSB, or WOSB, to support federal small business utilization goals. All submissions must be sent electronically via email to the designated technical points of contact by the deadline of July 10, 2026. The materials, if procured in a future solicitation, must be delivered to the USACE NWP Navigation Division facility at 8010 St Helens Rd, Portland, OR 97210, with the contractor responsible for all transportation, labor, and equipment. No formal contract clauses, inspection protocols, packaging standards, or evaluation factors are applicable at this stage, as this is a pre-solicitation market research effort aimed solely at gathering information to inform future procurement strategies.
