VENDOR QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 2 08 28 2026.docx

This file is a Vendor Questions and Answers document for the Overhead Door Fire Inspection Services solicitation issued by the Department of Agriculture Forest Service. The document addresses clarifications regarding 17 overhead doors that are part of the inspection requirement, confirming that all 17 doors are motor-operated rather than chain-operated. The Q&A also clarifies that there is no incumbent contractor for this work, as the roll-up fire doors have never been previously drop tested or inspected, and no prior contract award exists for this requirement.

The solicitation (12444626Q0076) is issued as a Request for Quotation for commercial items and is set-aside exclusively for small business concerns under North American Industry Classification Standard Code 561790. Interested vendors should note that this is a Total Small Business Set-Aside with a small business size standard, and quotations should address the inspection and testing requirements for the 17 motor-operated overhead fire doors.
