Dubois Housing Roof Replacement

The Dubois Housing Roof Replacement project, awarded to Beet Inc. under solicitation number 1240LT26P0007, is a firm-fixed-price contract valued at $160,188.50 and structured as a total small business set-aside under FAR 19.5. The work, to be performed at the Dubois Administrative Site within the Targhee National Forest in Idaho Falls, Idaho, involves the replacement of metal roofs on seven family housing units, with performance required to begin within ten calendar days of contract award and be completed within ninety calendar days, concluding by September 30, 2026. The contract incorporates a comprehensive suite of Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses governing construction, labor standards, quality assurance, and ethical conduct, including mandatory adherence to Davis-Bacon wage rates under FAR 52.222-6 and its associated variants, compliance with Buy American requirements through multiple clauses such as 52.225-11, and the imposition of a warranty of construction under 52.246-21. Performance and payment bonds are required, and inspection and acceptance of the work occur at the construction site by the Government, with quality standards defined by referenced specifications in attachment J.3 and drawings in J.4. The contract mandates electronic invoicing exclusively through the Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) and requires compliance with security protocols, whistleblower protections, and ethical business conduct. The place of performance is governed by F.O.B. Destination terms, and the contractor must meet all applicable labor, environmental, and safety standards as detailed in numerous FAR clauses, including accident prevention, site investigation, and protection of existing structures. The award was issued through a sealed bid process, with no modifications to the solicitation, and the contracting officer’s representative and contracting officer are designated as Nini Anderson and Westley Bisson, respectively, both affiliated with the USDA-FS CSA Intermountain office in Ogden, Utah. The contractor’s unique entity ID is HUBLWMSEFR68, and while no formal socioeconomic status was certified at the time of proposal, the set-aside status confirms eligibility as a small business. Payment will be made on a progress basis against verified accomplishments, with accelerated payments mandated for any small business subcontractors involved, and the contract prohibits any subcontractor sales that violate federal pricing restrictions.
