AI Contract Overview
The United States General Services Administration (GSA) Public Buildings Service is soliciting proposals for a comprehensive design-build construction project involving the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Customer Service Center campus in Memphis, Tennessee. The project scope includes the replacement and repair of roofing systems, refurbishing and replacing failing Westinghouse POW-R-100 electrical circuit breakers, and installing a new UL-certified fire alarm system throughout the facility. The roofing work entails the upgrade and replacement of thermal and moisture protection and drainage systems with built-up asphalt membranes, metal flashing, and rigid insulation supported by existing metal decking and steel structure. A 20-year, no-dollar-limit warranty covering wind damage up to 140 mph is required for all roofing work, alongside installation of a web-camera for on-site monitoring. Electrical work focuses on restoring breaker reliability by supplying new breakers and refurbishing spares with a one-year warranty on replacements. The fire alarm system replacement mandates the installation of a fully UL-certified system, with the involvement of a registered fire protection engineer throughout design and construction phases to ensure compliance with all relevant codes and standards. This firm fixed-price contract, estimated between $20 million and $25 million, requires the Design-Builder to furnish complete design documents, coordinate multidisciplinary systems, and submit detailed construction and demolition waste diversion plans. The procurement incorporates strict federal labor wage compliance under the Davis-Bacon Act, detailed in the applicable wage determination for Shelby County, Tennessee, including mandatory reporting and contracting ethics provisions. Evaluation will be based on a best-value trade-off, where non-price factors such as prior performance on similar projects, project management approach, and key personnel qualifications are collectively more important than cost alone. The project is governed by a comprehensive set of FAR and GSAR clauses addressing contract administration, security clearances (including HSPD-12 compliance for personnel access), safeguarding Controlled Unclassified Information, and strict invoicing and reporting requirements. The performance period extends from November 2024 to November 2026, with substantial completion required within 810 calendar days after the notice to proceed. Potential offerors have access to virtual and on-site pre-proposal meetings, with submission due by February 2, 2026, under a streamlined proposal format limited to 50 pages. The contract emphasizes rigorous quality control, documentation, inspections per NFPA, ASTM, and local codes, and coordination with government stakeholders to ensure the delivery of safe, compliant, and durable facility improvements.

The United States General Services Administration (GSA) Public Buildings Service (PBS) announces an opportunity for a General Construction opportunity to perform repairs and installations of Roofs, Electrical Breakers and a New Fire Alarm System in the buildings on the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Customer Service Center Campus located at 5391-5399 Getwell Road in Memphis, TN 38111. The Project will utilize the Design/Build Project Delivery Method to replace roofs of certain buildings, identify repair/replace failing electrical breakers, and replace the existing Fire Alarm System.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
A. Roof Cover Replacement and Improvement:
The project involves the design, repair, replacement, and improvement of thermal and moisture protection systems and rainwater drainage systems at roofs of the Internal Revenue Service Center in Memphis, Tennessee. The existing roof covers involve built-up asphalt membrane; bituminous base flashing; metal counterflashing and parapet copings; rigid insulation over metal decking; internal rain leaders and conductors; and associated materials and components. As-built drawings indicate that the metal deck and structural steel supports provide the roof slope.
The Design-Builder shall design and construct appropriate repairs, replacements, and improvements of roof cover and rainwater drainage systems to this facility. The Design-Builder shall confirm the quantity of roof area prior to submitting a proposal.
In addition, the project requires a web-camera surveillance system to monitor on-site roof work through project completion.
The Design-Builder shall also provide a twenty-year (20-year), no-dollar-limit (NDL) warranty on all areas of roof replacement. The warranties shall include wind riders to cover damage caused by winds speeds up to one-hundred forty (140) miles per hour or up to the design wind speed for the project location, whichever is less.
B. Breaker Repairs:
During PM inspection and testing of Westinghouse POW-R-100 circuit breakers in the Memphis IRS, twenty-six (26) circuit breakers failed. It is the intention of the Project Team to correct these issues and ensure the IRS has an adequate supply of functional breakers as spares.
The Design-Builder shall purchase and provide breakers as listed in the SOW. Once the purchased breakers arrive and the spare breakers requiring refurbishment are returned, the IRS will have enough spare breakers to allow one switchboard’s breakers to be replaced on a weekend. The breakers will then have to be sent out to be refurbished. Once the refurbished breakers are returned, the next switchboard breakers can be completed.
The Design-Builder shall provide a one-year (1-year) warranty on all replaced breakers, including all parts and labor.
C. Fire Alarm System Replacement:
The project also includes replacement of the fire alarm system, including but not limited to all fire alarm control panels, initiating devices, notification devices, wiring, control modules, monitor modules, NAC panels, tamper switches, flow switches, etc. within the Memphis IRS Service Center Complex. The new Fire Alarm system shall be UL Certified; thus, the installing contractor shall be UL certified. The Design-Builder shall provide UL Certification to GSA upon completion of the project.
The Design-Builder’s registered Fire Protection Engineer (FPE) is required to be a full participant in the Project Delivery Team throughout the Design and Construction Stages of the project and should be thoroughly familiar with current Core Building Standards.
D. Common Requirements:
This project requires construction and demolition (C&D) waste diversion plans, waste diversion monthly reports, and related documentation. The Design-Builder is responsible for assessing all visible existing conditions that may impact pricing prior to submission of a proposal.
The estimated magnitude of construction is between $ $20M - $25M.
Bonding Requirement: $30 Million
