S--MASI, CARPET REPLACEMENT AT FEDERAL HALL

The contract addresses the replacement of carpet tile across all four floors of the historic Federal Hall National Memorial located at 26 Wall Street in New York City, with an optional work scope for the basement. The project requires the removal and disposal of approximately 15,450 square feet of existing carpet, adhesive residue, and damaged transition strips, followed by the installation of new carpet tiles meeting the highest commercial wear class, low VOC emissions, and a manufacturer-approved backing system. ADA-compliant transitions, edge conditions, reducers, and trim must be installed, and all work must conform to the 2024 International Building Code. The contract includes strict requirements for site protection, phased execution to minimize public disruption—particularly focusing on Mondays and Tuesdays when the building is closed—and final cleaning and debris removal. Performance is scheduled from July 31, 2026, to October 29, 2026, with work to commence within 10 calendar days of receiving the notice to proceed, contingent on approved insurance and bonding. Regular working hours are defined as 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding government holidays, though requests for weekend or after-hours work must be approved by the Contracting Officer. The solicitation is a small business total set-aside under NAICS code 238330, with all offerors required to maintain active registration in SAM.gov and submit current representations and certifications, including those related to labor standards, environmental compliance, and ownership. Proposals must be submitted in two separately bound volumes: a technical proposal limited to 15 pages covering approach, management, and experience, and a price proposal using standard forms including SF 1442, SF 24 bid bond, and Section K certifications. Evaluation will be based on a best-value tradeoff process, with price accounting for 50% of the scoring and the remaining 50% divided among technical approach and past performance. The Contracting Officer’s Representative will oversee technical performance but is strictly prohibited from modifying contracts, altering schedules, or obligating funds. The Buy American Act applies to all materials, prevailing wage requirements are enforced via the incorporated Wage Determination, and contractors must demonstrate good faith efforts in subcontracting with HUBZone, service-disabled veteran-owned, and women-owned small businesses.
