Nez Perce-Clearwater NF Salmon River Seed Orchard Well Drilling (2026)

The Forest Service issued RFQ 1240LU26Q0065 for the Salmon River Seed Orchard Well‑Drilling project, a small‑business set‑aside that will provide potable water to the nursery. The contract period runs from 15 Oct 2026 to 15 Oct 2027 (mandatory/negotiable). Offerors must submit a complete technical submittal and price quotation for all base items—failure to price any base item may result in exclusion. Pricing will be evaluated for fairness and reasonableness under FAR 12.204 and, together with technical factors (experience, relevance to the scope, and alignment with project size and complexity), will determine the best‑value award. One award will be made; quotes may exceed minimum requirements and offer additional value, but no formal trade‑off analysis will be conducted. The solicitation requires vendors to detail staffing (minimum/maximum employees, payroll status), available equipment, and to provide an offer guarantee. All offers must include the required signature, UEI, and contact information. Optional items (four options) are not mandatory; Options 1‑2 may be exercised before the performance end date if the initial well fails to meet specifications, and Options 3‑4 may be exercised on or before 01 May 2027. Contractors must price all items, including any optional work they wish to be considered, and comply with the sealed‑offer instructions and incorporated FAR provisions.
