Z--YELL 338223 - Bridge Preservation

Solicitation 140P2026R0073 is a Small Business Set-Aside for bridge preservation services at Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, managed by the National Park Service Denver Service Center. The project involves the rehabilitation of three specific bridges: Lava Creek, Thumb Creek, and an Unnamed Creek bridge. The scope of work includes concrete spall and structural repairs, crack sealing, stone masonry repointing, bridge expansion joint maintenance, painting of railings, and the application of epoxy overlays via hydro-demolition. Additional requirements include erosion repair, pavement markings, and strict traffic control. The anticipated period of performance is 155 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, with an estimated contract value between $1 million and $5 million. The contract will be awarded using the Best Value Continuum Tradeoff Process, where non-price factors—specifically technical approach, project experience, key personnel, and past performance—are significantly more important than price. Required key personnel include a Site Superintendent with at least five years of experience and OSHA 30 certification, and a Traffic Control Supervisor with three years of experience meeting MUTCD standards. Contractors must adhere to strict work hour restrictions from 7 AM to 7 PM and comply with environmental protections for wildlife and cultural resources. Performance and payment bonds are required at 100 percent of the contract price, and the project is subject to Davis-Bacon Act labor standards. Proposals are due by October 30, 2026.
