Quick Summary

The National Park Service (NPS), under the Department of the Interior, is soliciting proposals for the demolition of the Recreation Building at Mt. LeConte Lodge within the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Gatlinburg, TN. This is a Total Small Business Set-Aside procurement. The project involves deconstruction, material removal, and site preparation in a remote, high-elevation environment. Proposals are due April 10, 2026, at 5:00 PM EDT.

Scope of Work

The contractor will be responsible for the complete deconstruction and demolition of the Recreation Building and its associated features. This includes removing all demolished materials for legal off-site disposal. Specific materials must be salvaged and stockpiled on-site, including approximately 900 sq ft of interior wooden tongue & groove boards, three waterless urinals, 30 linear feet of copper piping, two Kwikset Door Handle/Dead Bolt sets, and 800 cubic feet of stone foundation material. The site must be graded for positive drainage, seeded, and covered with natural fiber roll. Access to the remote site is limited to foot travel or airlift operations, with the contractor responsible for procuring airlift services and obtaining a Special Use Permit (SUP).

Contract Details

  • Contract Type: Firm Fixed Price
  • Period of Performance: April 15, 2026, to August 1, 2026. Demolition is anticipated to take 4 weeks.
  • Set-Aside: Total Small Business Set-Aside (FAR 19.5)
  • NAICS Code: 238910 Site Preparation Contractors ($19M size standard)
  • Evaluation: Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA), with technical proposals evaluated on a pass/fail basis.

Key Requirements & Challenges

The project site is remote, lacking on-site water, electricity, internet, or cell service. Contractors must provide all materials, equipment, and labor. Strict adherence to safety, environmental, and wildlife protection protocols (including bear safety) is mandatory. Coordination with LeConte Lodge's operational schedule is critical, with specific work hour restrictions for noise-intensive activities. NPS lodging is available at the LeConte Maintenance Bunkhouse for up to 4 consecutive weeks. Potential services and equipment rentals from the concessioner and Crowder Construction Group are available for a fee, including airlift management, ground crew, equipment rentals (mini-excavator, skid steer), and porter services.

  • Proposals Due: April 10, 2026, 5:00 PM EDT.
  • Submission Method: Email to Ashley_Warcewicz@ios.doi.gov.
