Ennis NFH MT Replace Insulation

Summary: Background The Ennis National Fish Hatchery (NFH) is issuing this solicitation to replace insulation in the Lower Raceway Building located at 180 Fish Hatchery Road, Ennis, MT. The goal of this project is to provide safe and energy-efficient insulation due to the current degradation of existing materials caused by exposure to water condensation and freeze/thaw cycles. This project aligns with the mission of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to maintain healthy fish populations and habitats. Work Details The contractor is required to remove the existing batt insulation and vinyl protective covering from multiple designated workspaces within the Lower Raceway Building. The current materials have degraded significantly, posing safety risks for both humans and fish. After removal, the contractor will install closed cell spray foam insulation in the areas previously occupied by the batt insulation and vinyl coverings. All work must comply with applicable local, state, and federal regulations. The contractor must be licensed, accredited, and certified in Montana for insulation removal and installation. Period of Performance July 1, 2026 - August 31, 2026 Place of Performance Lower Raceway Building at Ennis National Fish Hatchery, 180 Fish Hatchery Road, Ennis, MT 59729-9113 Incumbent Analysis (see Incumbents section for more detail) This opportunity for insulation replacement at the Ennis National Fish Hatchery appears to have a confirmed incumbent and/or closely related prior contract through DOI/Forest Service alteration and repair MATOC awards that run through 12/31/26. Prior award details include multiple task order contract vehicles such as Ironwood Commercial Builders ($42,002,161, 12/23/21–12/31/26) and RJS Construction ($38,852,318, 01/01/22–12/31/26), among others, which cover alteration/repair construction services. The prior work is described broadly as ALT/REPAIR construction services (potentially including building envelope and insulation-related scope), suggesting this project may be a continuation of those ongoing repair/upgrade efforts under the same general contracting framework.
