Region 9 A-E Short Selection List
This is an annual request for Architect-Engineer firms to submit or update their qualifications for a Short Selection List used to award contracts under $350,000. The list is primarily for the USDA Forest Service Eastern Region (Region 9), covering multiple states including Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and others. Work includes a wide range of services such as bridge design, building renovations, energy systems, environmental investigations, and construction inspection. To be considered, firms must submit a specific 30-page PDF package via email, which includes a cover letter, a completed form, and proof of SAM.gov registration. The list is generally set aside for small businesses, and firms already on it must update their information annually to remain eligible.
