AMENDMENT 2 The National Park Service extends the deadline for proposal submission to no later than 4:00 p.m. Mountain Time on September 29 for the concession business opportunity to provide Guided Mountain Climbing and Climbing Instruction, and Ski Mountaineering within Grand Teton National Park. _____________________ AMENDMENT 1 The Service amends the Prospectus and provides responses to questions received regarding the Prospectus. The deadline for proposals is unchanged. The Prospectus and Amendment 1 will be available at https://www.nps.gov/subjects/concessions/grte012-24.htm. ________________________ The National Park Service (NPS) provides notice of the release of a Prospectus to solicit proposals for the award of one (1) Concession Contract (No. CC-GRTE012-24) to provide Guided Mountain Climbing and Climbing Instruction, and Ski Mountaineering within Grand Teton National Park (“Park”). The effective date of the next Concession Contract is expected to be January 1, 2024. Preferred Offeror The Director, pursuant to the terms of 36 C.F.R. Part 51, has determined CC-GRTE012-24 is a qualified contract and therefore, the Existing Concessioner is a preferred offeror for the new contract. If an Existing Concessioner submits a responsive proposal and that proposal is not selected as the best proposal, the preferred offeror designation allows it to match the terms of the best offer. The Prospectus explains the business opportunity and the terms and conditions under which the NPS will award the Concession Contract. The Prospectus will be available at https://www.nps.gov/subjects/concessions/prospectuses.htm. Site Visit The Service will not conduct a site visit. To the extent the Park is open and available for public access, Offerors are encouraged to visit the Park and become familiar with the area details for operating the Draft Contract services. A site visit is not required to submit a proposal.
