Who can bid
This opportunity is 100% set aside for small businesses under NAICS 237120. To qualify, your firm must meet the Small Business Administration's size standard for this code—currently $40.0 million in average annual receipts.
You must also have:
- Active SAM.gov registration (valid through contract performance period)
- Any required fuel handling and petroleum construction certifications (see the solicitation for specifics)
- Florida state contractor licensing appropriate for fuel system work
- EPA spill prevention and OSHA hazardous work credentials as applicable

How to put together a competitive bid
Scope clarification: Contact the contracting officer immediately regarding tank capacities, line materials (fiberglass, steel, or composite), and whether the work involves removal, remediation, or in-place repair. Coastal fuel systems often have buried components requiring dewatering, shoring, or environmental containment—verify which methods are specified or permitted.
Regulatory compliance: Coast Guard facilities follow UFC (Unified Facilities Criteria) and NFPA 30/30A standards for flammable liquids. Your technical proposal should demonstrate direct experience with federal fuel system projects, including:
- Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) plan familiarity
- Underground storage tank (UST) compliance with EPA regulations
- Hot work and confined space protocols
Labor and scheduling: Coast Guard operational tempo limits station downtime. Propose phased work windows, temporary fueling alternatives, or after-hours execution. Include bonding for performance and payment—typically 100% for construction.
Pricing structure: Combined Synopsis/Solicitations usually require all pricing at submission. Itemize tank repair, line replacement, testing/commissioning, and disposal separately. Account for Florida coastal conditions: corrosion protection, storm resilience, and saltwater intrusion mitigation.
Past performance: Document three comparable fuel system projects within five years, preferably federal or marine environments.
