GPO QCIMD Shelving Installation

The United States Government Publishing Office (GPO) is soliciting proposals for a firm fixed price contract to replace existing carousels with a new shelving system in the Inventory Management Stores (Room B112) at its South Building in Washington, DC. The contractor is responsible for providing all labor, materials, equipment, and supervision to install 5-beam level shelves of various dimensions, including specific units with wire decks. All materials must be new in factory-sealed containers, and each shelf must feature visible labeling indicating a maximum capacity of 1250 lbs. The project is expected to be completed within 90 days from the Notice to Proceed, with delivery and installation occurring during standard business hours, although after-hours work may be coordinated to minimize operational disruptions. Proposals are due by 5:00 pm EDT on December 18, 2026, and must be submitted electronically in six specific volumes, including technical capability, a management plan, and a cost proposal. Evaluation will be based on technical capability, management approach, key personnel, and past performance from the last six years. Because the GPO is a legislative branch agency, the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) do not apply; instead, the procurement is governed by specifically incorporated Materials Management Acquisition Regulations (MMAR). The award will be based on a best-value decision, requiring the contractor to maintain professional and general liability insurance and ensure all site restoration is completed to pre-mobilization conditions.
