Who can bid
This opportunity is set aside 100% for small businesses under Small Business Set Aside — Total. Your business must qualify as small under NAICS 212321 (Construction Sand and Gravel Mining), which has a size standard set by the Small Business Administration. See the solicitation for the specific size threshold and any additional qualifying criteria.
You must be registered in SAM.gov (System for Award Management) and have an active registration at the time of bid submission. If your business is not yet SAM-registered, begin immediately—registration processing can take several business days.
Firms in related industries may also qualify if they meet the NAICS size standard and can provide the required aggregate materials. Joint ventures and mentor-protégé arrangements may bid if structured to comply with SBA regulations for small business set-asides.
How to put together a competitive bid
Understand material specifications. Aggregate stone contracts specify exact requirements for particle size distribution (sieve analysis), durability, cleanliness, and moisture content. See the solicitation for the specific technical requirements—do not assume standard construction-grade material will suffice.
Evaluate sourcing and logistics. Identify your quarry or supply source and calculate freight costs to Fort Riley, located in northeastern Kansas between Junction City and Manhattan. Factor in Kansas weight limits, seasonal road restrictions, and any military base access requirements for delivery vehicles. Consider whether you will use your own trucks or subcontract hauling.
Price strategically. Aggregate materials are heavy, low-value-per-ton commodities where transportation often dominates total cost. Proximity to Fort Riley provides significant advantage. Review historical pricing for similar Army aggregate contracts in the region if available. See the solicitation for the pricing structure required—unit prices per ton, lump sum, or other format.
Document small business status. Prepare your SBA size certification and any relevant socioeconomic certifications (HubZone, SDVOSB, 8(a), WOSB) even though this is a general small business set-aside—additional qualifications may be relevant for future subcontracting or contract layering.
Address delivery requirements. Military installations typically require specific delivery windows, vehicle inspections, and driver credentialing. See the solicitation for any Just-in-Time delivery expectations, minimum/maximum order quantities, or surge capacity requirements.
Review contract terms. Government aggregate contracts often include standard clauses for inspection, acceptance, and payment under FAR Part 52. Pay attention to prompt payment terms and any bonding requirements.
