Z--AZ-IMPERIAL NWR-MAINTENANCE SHOP REPAIR

The contract solicitation AZ-IMPERIAL NWR-MAINTENANCE SHOP REPAIR, identified by solicitation number 140FC126R0024, is a firm fixed-price, small business set-aside construction project under NAICS code 236220, with a size standard of $19 million, targeting qualified small business concerns. The work involves the complete replacement and repair of a storm-damaged corrugated metal shade cover measuring 26'x44'x12'4" located at the automotive repair shop at Imperial National Wildlife Refuge in Yuma, Arizona. The contractor is responsible for all labor, materials, equipment, and supervision to dismantle the existing damaged structure, replace all 7-inch I-beams with new structural steel of equal or greater load rating, reuse structurally sound existing posts while anchoring and painting new ones to match, install new corrugated metal roofing panels matching or exceeding the existing gauge and profile, apply corrosion protection and paint finishes consistent with the original, and fully remove and dispose of all debris. All work must adhere to applicable building codes, OSHA safety standards, industry practices for structural steel and roofing, and include a site-specific safety plan with fall protection and an equipment lifting plan if cranes or lifts are utilized. The period of performance is strictly defined from July 6, 2026, to August 3, 2026, with performance required to begin within ten calendar days and be completed within thirty calendar days after notice to proceed. Normal work hours are Monday through Thursday, 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and the contractor must provide after-hours emergency contact information. Technical proposals must be submitted in two parts: Part I as a firm fixed-price quote with itemized cost breakdowns and Part II as a technical and past performance questionnaire, with award based on the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) method—technical acceptability is a pass/fail gate, and failure to meet baseline technical requirements disqualifies a submission. The contractor must maintain quality control in accordance with structural and roofing standards, and inspections are required at multiple stages including pre-work verification, material delivery, structural and roofing installation, coating application, and a final Government walkthrough.
