Replace and Repair Stairwells

The Federal Prison System under the Department of Justice is forecasting a contract to replace and repair stairwells at a facility located in Coleman, Florida. This procurement is set aside exclusively for 8(a) sole source participation, meaning only small businesses certified under the SBA's 8(a) Business Development Program are eligible to compete. The NAICS code 238190 classifies the work under Other Construction Specialty Trade Contractors, indicating that specialized construction services are required for the stairwell refurbishment. The opportunity is posted with no solicitation number yet, suggesting it is in the early planning phase ahead of a formal solicitation. The point of contact for questions is Julie Bergami, and Sarah Dean serves as the Small Business Specialist to assist potential bidders. In addition to the stairwell replacement and repair work, the contract includes the installation of additional fences, which will enhance security and perimeter control at the facility. The place of performance is specifically identified as Coleman, Florida, and all work must be performed on-site at the Federal Prison System location there. The posting date indicates the information is available as of August 2026, providing potential small business contractors with advance notice to prepare proposals. Interested parties should contact Julie Bergami directly for further details or clarifications regarding the scope and requirements of the upcoming procurement.
