This notice is not a solicitation and will not result in a contract award; it is purely for gathering industry input to determine if a small business set-aside is appropriate for an upcoming procurement. The work involves performance-based services requiring professional labor, certified supervision, specialized tools, and technical expertise to conduct safety testing and verification of plumbed emergency equipment, laboratory fume hoods, ventilation systems, and monitors in compliance with OSHA regulations, NFPA standards—including specific sections 7.8.7 and 7.14.1—and other codes such as ANSI/ISEA Z358.1, ANSI/AIHA Z9.5, ANSI/ASHRAE 110, NIST S 7101.60, ISO 14644, and IEST-RP-CC002. The potential contract, if solicited, would be a five-year agreement with a twelve-month base period and four one-year option periods, falling under NAICS code 541380 with a small business size standard of $19.0 million in annual receipts. Interested small businesses are encouraged to submit a capabilities package of no more than ten pages, detailing their experience with similar services in government or military campus environments, proof of compliance knowledge, examples of past projects within the last five years including contract value and role, company profile with employee count, annual receipts, and DUNS number, and documentation verifying small business certification such as SDVOSB, WOSB, HUBZone, or 8(a). Respondents must also state whether they intend to bid if a formal solicitation is issued. All submissions must be emailed to Helen Wesley and carbon copied to Tony Schmidt by 10 AM ET on August 17, 2026. No payment will be provided for responses, and submitters will not be notified of evaluation outcomes. Participation is voluntary but critical to help NIST align its requirements with industry capabilities, with the anticipated contract award timeline around September 2026.
