This contract awards non-personal services for comprehensive fire extinguisher maintenance, inspection, testing, recharge, replacement, and disposal across nine Tongass National Forest facilities in Southeast Alaska, including Hoonah, Craig, Juneau, Ketchikan, Petersburg, Sitka, Thorne Bay, Wrangell, and Yakutat. The contractor is responsible for furnishing all labor, tools, materials, equipment, transportation, and management needed to ensure all fire extinguishers meet NFPA 10, OSHA, and manufacturer-specific standards with zero deviations permitted. Services must be performed in accordance with a detailed Performance Work Statement, and all work must result in equipment that is fully functional, certified, and ready for emergency use. The contract has a 12-month base period beginning May 15, 2026, and includes four optional 12-month extension periods through April 30, 2031, with unit pricing structured for annual maintenance at $30 per unit in the base period and escalating to $38 per unit in the fourth option period. Additional line items cover internal maintenance, hydrostatic testing, and replacement and disposal of extinguishers, with fixed pricing applied uniformly across option periods. The contract is a firm-fixed price, non-personal services, small business set-aside with a total obligated value of $142,024, covering only the first option period, while subsequent option periods remain unfunded until exercised.

The contractor must submit a Quality Control Plan and Schedule of Services within 10 business days of award, provide digital documentation for all service actions including hydrostatic test certificates and extinguisher tags, and notify the government of any planned service interruptions. Only certified technicians adhering to NFPA 10 standards are permitted to perform work, and the contractor must maintain accountability for government property and secure all assets after each service visit. Reporting obligations are strict and include electronic submission of maintenance records, over-and-above work requests with prior costing, and a detailed list of personnel. No security clearances are required, and while packaging and marking specifications are not defined, delivery obligations are tied to the listed facilities throughout Southeast Alaska without specified FOB terms.
