Replace Roof

The Federal Prison System, part of the Department of Justice, is forecasting a sole-source contract opportunity under the 8(a) program to replace a roof at a facility located in Ayer, Massachusetts. The NAICS code 238160 indicates the work involves roofing contractors, and the procurement is designated specifically for an 8(a) sole source, meaning it is intended for a small business certified under the SBA’s 8(a) Business Development program, with no competitive bidding expected. The solicitation is listed as a forecast with a posted date of August 10, 2026, suggesting planning for future award rather than immediate action. Point of contact for the opportunity is J. Kercheval, with Sarah Dean serving as the Small Business Specialist, both reachable via official government email addresses. The contract opportunity is posted on the Department of Justice’s contracting opportunities portal, and while no specific dollar value or timeline is provided in the data, the location and set-aside classification indicate a targeted procurement aimed at supporting disadvantaged small businesses in fulfilling a critical infrastructure need.
