This is a pre-solicitation Sources Sought Notice for bridge preservation work within Yellowstone National Park under solicitation number 140P2026R0073, posted on April 24, 2026, with responses due by May 28, 2026. The effort focuses on the preservation and rehabilitation of three bridges—Lava Creek, Thumb Creek, and Unnamed Creek—located in and around the park, accessible via Gardiner and West Yellowstone, Montana. The scope includes concrete spall repair, crack sealing, stone masonry repointing, structural repairs, joint sealing, railing restoration, painting, hydro-demolition, epoxy overlay application, erosion control, pavement markings, site clearing, and traffic management. Work must be conducted with minimal disruption to park operations, including coordination with visitor shuttles and adherence to sensitive environmental and cultural protection protocols. The contract is anticipated to be awarded as a Firm-Fixed-Price contract with an estimated value between $1 million and $5 million, and performance is expected to be completed within 155 calendar days by summer 2028. The National Park Service, through the Department of the Interior’s Denver Service Center, is the procuring agency, with Shellie Murphy serving as the primary point of contact. All work will occur on-site at the bridge locations in Wyoming, and contractors must manage logistics including material staging near West Yellowstone and Gardiner, provide on-site power via generators, and implement strict protective measures for river proximity and archeologically sensitive areas. No formal FAR clauses, contract line items, or detailed pricing are included in this notice, as it serves solely as a market research tool to assess industry capability and capacity. Respondents are required to complete a questionnaire addressing company profile, UEI, socioeconomic status, experience in bridge preservation, ability to work in high-traffic national parks, and compliance with environmental and cultural preservation standards. No award has been made, and final terms including inspection criteria, payment procedures, and contract administration details will be defined in a subsequent RFP, expected in winter 2026 or early 2027. No packaging, marking, or military standards are specified, and no COR or COTR is identified at this stage.
