The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Kansas City District, has issued solicitation W912DQ26QA053 for the emergency procurement of Type 1 river rock to be delivered at Missouri River mile 52.8. This requirement is classified under NAICS 212319, Other Crushed and Broken Stone Mining and Quarrying, and PSC 5610, Mineral Construction Materials, Bulk. The opportunity is designated as a 100% Total Small Business Set-Aside (SBA). Responses are due by April 10, 2026, for the project located in Washington, Missouri.
The scope of work involves providing durable stone that meets specific geological standards, including a bulk specific gravity of at least 2.40 on a saturated surface-dry basis per ASTM C 127 and a maximum freeze-thaw loss of 25 percent at 20 cycles per CRD-C 144-92. While no gradation test is required prior to shipping and no Contractor Quality Management (CQM) credentialed staff is necessary, the contractor is responsible for loading material onto government-owned barges. The government will provide a loading dock barge, but the contractor must provide suitable land for the loading facility if an established site on the Missouri River is not already available. This land must accommodate the necessary draft, bank height for the loading ramp, and room for the ingress and egress of towboats and material barges.
Contractual documentation includes the primary solicitation and three attachments: a statement of work, an amendment clarifying the river mile location, and a duplicate statement of work file.
