About this file
This document is an Addendum #2 for Request for Qualifications (RFQ) #0006148 issued by the Texas Facilities Commission (TFC) for Construction Materials Testing Services for Texas Juvenile Justice Department (TJJD) New Detention Facilities. The addendum modifies the original solicitation by updating the schedule of events, with the proposal submission deadline set for September 2, 2025, at 3:00 PM. Two mandatory pre-submittal conferences were held on August 19 and 20, 2025, with detailed attendee lists included. The addendum addresses a question about Attachment G accessibility and clarifies that it can be downloaded from Bonfire or the Electronic State Business Daily (ESBD).
The document includes specific clarifications about field testing requirements for various construction materials and systems, such as firestopping, infrared thermography, window testing, water penetration, and air barrier leakage testing. A key point of clarification is that the 23.7% Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) goal applies only to subcontracted firms, not to the prime contractor's own participation. The attendee lists reveal multiple engineering, testing, and consulting firms participated, with many being HUB-certified. The solicitation appears to be seeking comprehensive construction materials testing services for new detention facility construction, with a focus on diverse and qualified testing providers.

Are you looking for field or laboratory versions of these tests?
Firestopping Field Testing (ASTM E2174) Infrared Thermography Inspections of Building Envelope and Roof Systems ASTM Window Chamber Testing Water Penetration Testing (AAMA 501.2) Whole Building Air Barrier Leakage Testing (ASTM E779)
See response to the specific tests referenced:
• Firestopping Field Testing (ASTM E2174)
This standard is specifically designed for field inspections of firestop systems after installation. Lab testing of firestopping (e.g., ASTM E814) exists, but that’s for pre-qualification of materials not in-situ validation.
• Infrared Thermography Inspections of Building Envelope and Roof Systems This inspection relies on real-time thermal imaging of the actual building to detect insulation gaps, air leaks, or moisture issues.
You can’t replicate site-specific conditions like solar loading or ambient temperature in a lab.
• ASTM Window Chamber Testing While similar test procedures are used in labs to qualify window systems before construction, E1105 is written for field application assessing how the installed systems perform under real conditions.
• Water Penetration Testing (AAMA 501.2) This is a diagnostic, in-situ hose test intended to evaluate how installed curtain walls or storefronts resist water leakage.
Lab alternatives exist (like AAMA 502/503 or ASTM E547), but 501.2 is strictly a field quality assurance method.
• Whole Building Air Barrier Leakage Testing
(ASTM E779)
This test uses blower door equipment to measure actual air leakage in the constructed building. It must be done in the field, with the structure sealed and HVAC systems turned off.
3.
If a prime firm is HUB and plans on using subcontractors, can the prime firm’s participation count towards the 23.7% goal?
No, the 23.7 % goal only applies to subcontracted firms only.
All other aspects of RFQ # 0006148 remain as is.
