W912PM26BA007

Intent to Consolidate Notice 

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District requires a contract to perform maintenance dredging of two (2) dredging projects.  The areas of consideration for these dredging services are the upper Wilmington Harbor federal navigation channel reaches including the Anchorage Basin; and dredging of Mid River Channels in New Hanover and Brunswick County, North Carolina.

In accordance with FAR RFO 7.107-3, the Government intends to consolidate two contracts for maintenance dredging of Anchorage Basin; and the dredging of Mid River Channels in New Hanover and Brunswick County, North Carolina, performed by a large business. The consolidated effort will be solicited as unrestricted.  The consolidation of the two identified projects is in the best interest of the Government. This consolidation meets the requirements of FAR RFO 7.107 and the benefits of the consolidated acquisition would substantially exceed the benefits that would be derived from an alternative approach. Therefore, the Government found that consolidation is necessary and justified and shall be available for seven days prior to the release of the solicitation for this requirement. The solicitation is anticipated for release on or around 30 July 2026.
