Amendment 0002/RFQ CAFC26-0008 Tactile Project. Exhibition Design, Fabrication, and Installation Services for Interactive Educational Exhibits

The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit is seeking quotations for the design, fabrication, installation, and commissioning of three museum-quality interactive educational exhibits for its Innovation Center in Washington, DC. The project, identified as RFQ CAFC26-0008, focuses on providing tactile, low-tech, and hands-on learning experiences for middle and high school students. The three specific exhibits include a Morse Code Experience, a NASA Materials Experience, and a Suffrage Voting Booth. Due to security protocols, all interactive components must be durable and function independently without network connectivity. The estimated contract value is a Rough Order of Magnitude of $200,000, with the performance period spanning seven months following the Notice to Proceed. The procurement is being conducted on a best-value tradeoff basis, with evaluation factors prioritized in the following order: Technical Approach (covering design, fabrication, installation, and optional enhancements), Corporate Experience and Past Performance, Management Approach and Staffing Plan, and Price. Offerors are required to submit two distinct volumes: a Technical Proposal addressing design and management, and a Price Proposal using a specific Excel template. The solicitation is not a small business set-aside, meaning it is open to all business types. Amendment 0002 has extended the quotation due date to August 26, 2026, and provides updated information through new attachments. All submissions must be sent electronically to the Procurement and Contracting Services office.
