What the buyer is trying to do

Procure hopper dredging services for a defined reach of the Houston Ship Channel (Redfish to Morgans Point) in Texas, delivered under an unrestricted competition by the USACE Galveston District (per parent path), likely to maintain/restore navigable channel conditions in Harris, Chambers, and Galveston Counties.

Who should pursue this
  • Firms that own/operate hopper dredges and have demonstrated capability performing hopper dredging on navigation channels
  • Marine dredging contractors able to mobilize quickly given the 2026-02-24 submission deadline
  • Prime contractors experienced with USACE dredging solicitations under NAICS 237990
Work breakdown
  • Review full solicitation in SAM.gov workspace for W912HY26BA009 (scope, quantities, dredge template, disposal requirements, and submittals)
  • Plan and execute hopper dredging operations for Houston Ship Channel reach: Redfish to Morgans Point
  • Marine logistics planning for operations across Harris/Chambers/Galveston Counties (mobilization, staging, transit, operational windows)
  • Quality/control and reporting per USACE requirements (as specified in the solicitation package)
  • Compliance planning for any federal/state/local requirements referenced in the solicitation (to be confirmed in the full package)
Response package checklist
  • Confirm solicitation number W912HY26BA009 and submit via the method/portal specified in the full SAM.gov package
  • Acknowledge the response deadline: 2026-02-24T20:00:00+00:00
  • Complete all representations/certifications and required forms identified in the solicitation (not included in the brief)
  • Technical approach for hopper dredging the Redfish to Morgans Point reach (aligned to USACE requirements in the package)
  • Past performance demonstrating comparable hopper dredging on navigation channels
  • Equipment plan identifying the hopper dredge(s) and supporting marine plant proposed (as required by the solicitation)
  • Project staffing/management plan appropriate for marine dredging operations
  • Price proposal structured exactly per the solicitation schedule/CLINs (to be confirmed in the full package)
More BidPulsar strategy notesCompliance, pricing, teaming, risks, questions, and coverage notes
Compliance notes
  • Competition is explicitly unrestricted; do not assume set-aside conditions in bid strategy
  • Use NAICS 237990 and PSC Z1KB as indicated in the notice when aligning internal compliance and proposal labeling
  • No attachments are provided in the brief; compliance hinges on obtaining and following the full solicitation instructions from the SAM.gov workspace link
Pricing strategy
  • Because the brief contains no quantities, disposal requirements, or CLIN structure, pricing should be deferred until the full W912HY26BA009 package is reviewed
  • Given the hopper dredging nature, ensure pricing captures mobilization/demobilization, production assumptions, and operational constraints as specified in the solicitation (e.g., channel access/traffic rules, disposal locations)—all to be verified in the full package
  • Build a bid/no-bid decision gate within 24–48 hours focused on whether the solicitation provides enough clarity to price production and risk (quantities, material characteristics, and placement requirements)
Teaming and subs
  • If you lack in-house hopper dredge capacity, consider teaming/chartering arrangements with a hopper dredge operator (prime/sub or joint venture depending on solicitation allowances)
  • Potential subcontract needs to confirm from the solicitation: marine support vessels, survey/hydrographic services, and local marine logistics support for operations in the Houston Ship Channel area
Risks and watchouts
  • Thin brief: the description provides only the title-level scope; key bid drivers (quantities, dredge prism, placement sites, and constraints) are unknown until the full package is retrieved
  • Short turnaround: only 11 days from posted date (2026-02-13) to deadline (2026-02-24T20:00:00+00:00)
  • Operational risk typical of ship channels: working in/near active navigation traffic can affect production and safety planning; confirm any restrictions in the solicitation
  • Administrative risk: missing a required form or submission method due to reliance on brief instead of the full solicitation package
Smart questions to ask
  • Where exactly is the dredging reach (stationing/limits) for Redfish to Morgans Point in the solicitation drawings/specs, and what are the required depths/overdepth allowances?
  • What is the estimated quantity (CY) to be dredged and are there multiple areas/CLINs?
  • What are the specified disposal/placement locations and any restrictions on overflow, hopper pump-out, or routing?
  • Are there required production rates, dredge size constraints, or minimum hopper capacity requirements?
  • What are the allowable work windows and navigation/traffic control requirements for the Houston Ship Channel reach?
  • What is the bid schedule/CLIN structure and basis of payment (unit price vs lump sum elements)?
  • Are there any required submittals (e.g., dredging plan, safety plan) due with the proposal versus post-award?
Source coverage notes

Some notices publish limited source detail. Confirm these points before final bid/no-bid decisions.

  • Attachments/specifications/drawings and full proposal instructions for W912HY26BA009 (none included in brief)
  • Dredging quantities, limits, and required channel template (depth/width/overdepth)
  • Disposal/placement site(s) and any environmental/operational restrictions
  • CLIN structure and basis of payment
  • Period of performance and any phasing or required completion dates
  • Place of performance details beyond county-level reference
  • Any pre-bid site visit, Q&A timeline, or amendment process details

FAQ

How do I use the Market Snapshot?

It summarizes awarded-contract behavior for the opportunity’s NAICS and sector, including a recent pricing band (P10–P90), momentum, and composition. Use it as context, not a guarantee.

Is the data live?

The signal updates as new awarded notices enter the system. Always validate the official award and solicitation details on SAM.gov.

What do P10 and P90 mean?

P10 is the 10th percentile award size and P90 is the 90th percentile. Together they describe the typical spread of award values.
