Supply of Erosion Function Apparatus (EFA) – Prime Equipment Delivery

The contract calls for the design, manufacture, and delivery of a turnkey Erosion Function Apparatus compliant with ASTM Work Item 67195, intended for precise soil erosion testing used in dam safety and sediment management applications. The equipment must be fully functional upon delivery, meeting all technical specifications to ensure accurate and repeatable results in laboratory environments focused on geotechnical and hydraulic research. This is a subcontract under a Total Small Business Set-Aside, meaning only small businesses certified by the SBA are eligible to bid, and the NAICS code 334519 designates it as other electrical equipment and component manufacturing, aligning with the specialized nature of the apparatus. The solicitation was posted on June 30, 2026, with a response deadline of July 10, 2026, at 9:00 PM, leaving a tight window for proposal submission. Performance will be carried out under the auspices of the Department of the Interior at the Denver Federal Center, though the exact delivery location is not specified. The procurement is classified as prime equipment delivery, indicating the contractor is responsible for end-to-end integration, testing, and validation of the system without reliance on third-party assembly or configuration. All deliverables must satisfy federal procurement standards and support critical infrastructure protection efforts through reliable erosion data acquisition.
