DCR 993 Temporary Steel Bridges

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Conservation & Recreation is procuring temporary modular steel bridges to improve access to remote forest and park sites. Vendors must design, fabricate, and deliver two bridge types – a 40‑ft fold‑over bridge capable of supporting heavy equipment and a 25‑ft skidder‑panel bridge for heavier loads – with delivery within four months of order receipt. The contract is a three‑year base award (optionally renewable for two additional years) with a maximum estimated value of about $500,000. • Provide fully welded, modular steel bridge systems (40‑ft and 25‑ft) that can be deployed without additional supports or abutments. • Supply training, operating manuals, and on‑site installation support. • Meet Small Business Purchasing Program eligibility, Supplier Diversity commitments (minimum 1 % spend with certified diverse partners), and environmental sustainability expectations.
