Audio System Modernization

Solicitation # 030ADV26R0049

The Library of Congress is seeking a contractor to modernize the aging audio infrastructure in the historic Coolidge Auditorium, a 485-seat venue originally built in 1925 for chamber music performances.

The project requires the design and implementation of a permanent, digital audio system that eliminates the need for portable gear and unsightly cable runs, while preserving and enhancing the auditorium’s original acoustic character to support a broad range of programming including concerts, lectures, and public events. The contract, solicited under number 030ADV26R0049 and classified under NAICS code 238210, has a response deadline of August 25, 2026, and is open without set-aside restrictions. The work will be performed at the auditorium located in Washington, D.C., with the primary point of contact being Olexiy Levchuk, reachable via email or phone. The contractor must deliver a comprehensive, permanently installed digital audio solution that integrates seamlessly with the space’s historic architecture and acoustics, ensuring reliability, ease of operation, and long-term sustainability for the Library’s cultural programming needs.
