H--EO14398 STRUCTURAL FIRE SYSTEM INSPECT & TEST - AK

The contract covers annual inspection and testing of structural fire suppression and control systems across 12 National Park Service facilities in Alaska under a firm fixed price arrangement, with a base period from June 1, 2026, through December 31, 2026, and four optional one-year extension periods through December 31, 2030. Work must comply with NFPA 13, 25, 72, 12, and 2001 standards, as well as the International Building Code, National Electrical Code, and manufacturer specifications, requiring technicians to hold NICET Level II certification or higher and factory training for specific alarm systems like Edwards™/EST. All inspections and testing must be independently reviewed by a licensed Fire Protection Engineer, and deliverables include draft and final inspection reports, a detailed deficiency log updated annually by October 30, and photographic documentation of issues using standardized forms provided in the attachments. The contract is set aside entirely for small businesses under NAICS 541350 with a size standard of $11.5 million in average annual receipts, and offerors must demonstrate technical capability, relevant experience—particularly in Alaska—and past performance on similar projects, with award based on best value trade-off rather than lowest price technically acceptable. Pricing details are not included in the solicitation; offerors must submit their proposed costs for the base year and all options on SF-1449, with all payments processed electronically through the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Invoice Processing Platform. Performance occurs on-site at park facilities including Brooks Camp, King Salmon, Nome, Kennecott, and Skagway, with delivery terms designated as FOB destination. The contractor is prohibited from using ATVs and must ensure all personnel submitting performance evaluations are identified within 30 days of award, while also complying with whistleblower protections, subcontracting restrictions, and unique entity identifier and SAM registration requirements. All submissions must be sent via email to Ronald_bunch@nps.gov by May 11, 2026, and include technical narratives, certifications, experience examples, and past performance references in the exact order specified in the solicitation.
