PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE
W912P826BA004 through W912P826AB007

ATCHAFALAYA RIVER BAY, BAR, AND CREWBOAT CUT CUTTERHEAD DREDGE NOS. 1-4 2026

The work consists of furnishing one fully crewed and equipped hydraulic pipeline cutterhead dredge for the removal and satisfactory disposal of shoal material in the Atchafalaya River Bay, Bar, and Crewboat Cut Channel, located in St. Mary Parish, Louisiana. The dredge shall be complete in all respects, including all attendant plant, equipment, and crew necessary to perform the required dredging operations.

The estimated magnitude of construction for this project is between $10,000,000 and $25,000,000.

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 237990, with a small business size standard of $37,000,000.

This acquisition will be procured as Full and Open Competition. Market research indicates that while small business dredging firms exist within NAICS 237990, there is not a reasonable expectation that two or more responsible small business concerns possess the required dredge plant size, pumping capacity, and operational capability to perform this work at fair market prices.

The solicitation is anticipated to be issued on or about 7 April 2026 , with a bid opening date to be established in a future amendment. The solicitation documents will be posted on SAM.gov (www.sam.gov).

Interested vendors are encouraged to register as an Interested Vendor on SAM.gov. Offerors are also encouraged to post subcontracting opportunities on the Small Business Administration’s SUBNet at http://web.sba.gov/subnet.

Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) in order to receive a Government contract award. To register, visit http://www.sam.gov.
