The Department of Justice, through the Federal Bureau of Prisons, is preparing to solicit bids for the Water Service Improvement Project at the Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) Englewood in Littleton, Colorado. This project involves the construction of a new water pipeline, which includes replacing the existing main water pipeline primarily through trenching excavation, with specific areas requiring boring, and establishing a new public water utility connection. The project is crucial for ensuring reliable water service to the facility and is estimated to fall within a budget range of $1 million to $5 million, with a performance period of 246 calendar days from the notice to proceed. Interested contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and can expect the solicitation to be available around October 2, 2024; for further inquiries, they may contact Kevin Slone at kslone@bop.gov or by phone at 202-578-8617.
