This solicitation, numbered 1232SA26Q0919, is a combined synopsis and request for quotation issued under FAR Part 12 for commercial items, specifically for K3 Barn Repairs at the U.S. Dairy Forage Research Center in Prairie du Sac, Wisconsin. The acquisition is structured as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 238190, with a small business size standard of $19.0 million in average annual receipts, restricting eligibility to responsible small business concerns. The work involves fabrication, installation, inspection, and documentation of repairs to the barn structure, requiring strict adherence to specifications, design drawings, and applicable industry standards such as ASTM, NFPA, NECA, NEMA, and UL, as well as compliance with preservation requirements including moisture content limits for treated lumber and proper labeling of materials. All work must be performed on-site, with final acceptance granted by the USDA upon successful inspection, and performance must be completed within 200 calendar days after receipt of the Notice to Proceed, with work commencing no later than 10 days after that notice.
