Design-Build Roof Replacement

The General Services Administration, through the Pbs R10 office, awarded contract GS-10P-15-XC-C-0017 for a design-build roof replacement project at the Wheeler Federal Building in Baker City, Oregon. This project, categorized under NAICS 238160 and set aside for Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business concerns, had an estimated value between 500,000 and 1,000,000 dollars. The scope of work involves the removal and replacement of existing membrane roofing and thermal insulation with a new energy-efficient 20-year roofing system. The project encompasses the main building, the Post Office loading dock, the tool shed, and the front entry roof, with a required performance period of 150 calendar days from the date of award. The contract mandates strict adherence to IBC, ASHRAE 90.1, ASCE, and GSA P100 standards, specifically regarding wind uplift and fire safety. Technical requirements include the replacement of drain domes, strainers, clamp rings, support rings, gaskets, and associated metal flashing, all backed by a full labor and material system warranty. Compliance with the Davis-Bacon Act for Oregon wage determinations is required for all labor classifications. Administrative requirements for the award included the submission of contractor qualifications, financial information, past performance records, and security clearance documentation for personnel via the GSA security process. An asbestos inspection conducted prior to the project confirmed that no regulated asbestos-containing materials were present in the roofing layers.
