About this award

The National Science Foundation awarded a definitive firm fixed-price contract to Willmeng Construction, Inc. for the design and construction of a new Ice Core Facility at the Denver Federal Center in Lakewood, Colorado. The $13.55 million contract, awarded on October 18, 2023, involves the replacement of an aging refrigerated warehouse facility with approximately 19,058 square feet of specialized cold storage space designed to house irreplaceable ice core samples for ongoing NSF research. The project includes construction of refrigeration equipment rooms, shop and storage areas, office and support spaces, and loading and shipping facilities, with a completion deadline of December 31, 2025. The facility must incorporate redundant transcritical carbon dioxide refrigeration systems capable of maintaining extreme low temperatures without interruption to preserve the scientific integrity of the ice core collection.

This contract encompasses multiple modifications, including PCO 044 for backflow preventer addition, PCO 045 for architectural system integration, PCO 046 for hand dryer installation, and PCO 047 for additional masonry work. The award was made without small business or disadvantaged business set-aside designation despite the original pre-solicitation notice, posted in December 2022, indicating anticipated set-aside consideration. Willmeng Construction, Inc. will perform the work under NAICS codes 236220 and 238220, delivering specialized construction services required for maintaining the National Science Foundation's critical ice core research infrastructure.
