Des Moines Facilities Engineering Sole-Source Bridge Contract

The General Services Administration, through the Pbs R6 Services Acquisition Branch, is establishing an emergency sole-source bridge contract for facilities engineering services in Des Moines, Iowa. This firm fixed-price, performance-based commercial item contract covers the Neal Smith Federal Building at 210 Walnut Street and the US Courthouses located at 123 E. Walnut Street and 111 Locust Street. The agreement spans approximately one year, effective from March 1, 2025, through February 28, 2026, with an estimated annual value of 2,073,485.88 dollars. This action is justified under FAR 6.302-2 due to unusual and compelling urgency resulting from a previous vendor's failure to meet requirements, which left insufficient time for a full and open competition. The selected contractor is responsible for providing all administration, management, supervision, labor, materials, supplies, repair parts, tools, and equipment necessary for the operation, maintenance, and repair of the specified facilities. The scope of work includes the planning, scheduling, coordination, and inspection of all electrical and mechanical systems, structures, architectural finishes, and utilities located on, within, or beneath the facilities extending to the legal property line. This contract contains no additional option periods and is categorized under NAICS code 561210.
