The work requires full-service execution including CCTV and GPR scanning, controlled selective demolition of concrete slabs to protect structural elements, replacement of damaged piping with code-compliant materials, leak and functional testing, backfilling with compacted material, restoration of structural slabs and interior finishes, and comprehensive closeout documentation. Performance must be completed within 60 calendar days of notice to proceed, with work beginning no later than 10 days after issuance. The contract is subject to strict bonding requirements including a 20% bid bond, and 100% performance and payment bonds, all using standardized federal forms, with bond premiums included in the contract price rather than as separate costs. All materials must be new, delivered in sealed manufacturer containers, protected from environmental damage, and stored according to manufacturer specifications, with shipments exclusively addressed to the Contractor, not the Government. The procurement follows a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable evaluation process, requiring proposals to meet minimum technical acceptability thresholds before cost is considered, with award going to the lowest-priced responsive offer. Technical proposals, limited to 20 pages in Times New Roman, size 12 font, must demonstrate a detailed approach to work execution, including equipment, logistics, environmental compliance, safety protocols, crew accommodations, subcontractor arrangements, and resolution of anticipated challenges, alongside an original, project-specific Quality Control Plan that cannot merely replicate the Statement of Work. The proposal must be submitted in two volumes—Price and Technical—via email to the point of contact, with mandatory registration in SAM.gov and eligibility restricted to entities qualifying as both an Indian Economic Enterprise and an Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise as defined in DIAR Part 1480. Payment must be requested electronically through the U.S. Treasury’s Invoice Processing Platform, and all work must comply with Davis-Bacon wage determinations, applicable federal, state, and local codes including those from the National Fire Protection Association, and strict security protocols including background investigations for personnel with access to BIE facilities where students are present.
