Incumbent Analysis (see Incumbents section for more detail) This opportunity for bulk propane delivery to multiple locations on the west side of Glacier National Park appears to have a confirmed incumbent based on contract 140P1421P0018 awarded to CHS ($138,015) for “bulk propane for Glacier National Park” covering a base year plus four option years (03/01/21–02/28/26). The scope aligns with the current requirement for ongoing propane supply and distribution across park locations, suggesting continuity in service type and delivery support. A closely related prior award (140P1421P0017) to Jerry Breen ($60,526) also involved bulk propane delivery throughout Glacier’s east side during the same period, indicating the work is part of an established, recurring propane delivery effort at the park.
