STATEMENT OF WORK

Title: Solar Lighting Upper Site Replacement

I. BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The Department of Commerce (DOC) campus is a research and development complex located at 325 Broadway in Boulder, Colorado. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is the primary occupant, National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) also have a presence on campus. NIST’s Office of Facilities and Property Management (OFPM) is responsible for maintaining and renovation of spaces which consist of laboratories, office space and facilities maintenance areas throughout the campus.

The NIST Boulder campus has exterior pole luminaires installed throughout the site to illuminate roads and sidewalks. These pole luminaires are either controlled by a nearby building’s lighting control panels, exterior control relay panels, or via photocell On/Off. The site is also equipped with solar powered pole luminaires.

II. PURPOSE

The purpose of this project is to replace the ageing solar powered pole luminaires with new hard-wired pole-luminaires. New circuits will need to originate from the closest building.

The intent is to procure a Design-Build Entity (DBE) for this project that will furnish the necessary personnel, material, equipment, and design/construction services.

PLACE OF PERFORMANCE

NIST Boulder Campus 325 Broadway Boulder, CO 80305

Regular Business Hours Regular business hours are Monday through Friday 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM Mountain Time, excluding Federal holidays and NIST closures.

PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE

The period of performance for this project is anticipated to be 365 days.

III. SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS

WORKING AT NIST

1. Contractor shall adhere to all requirements in the attached specifications and documents detailing requirements for construction at NIST.

a. General Instructions for Conducting Work at the NIST Boulder Campus contains valuable information pertaining to unique requirements which can impact project schedule and budget if not accounted for, a few key areas are listed below. It is recommended that contractors become familiar with all the requirements and ask clarifying questions during the proposal phase.

i. Site access and badging requirements

PAGE 10 OF 173 1333ND26RNB190033

2 | P a g e

ii. Permitting requirements for a variety of activities

iii. Safety

iv. Work requiring advance notice and coordination

2. Contractor team shall refer to existing facility documentation and obtain clarification from the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) if discrepancies are noted.

3. Contractor team shall be responsible for field verification of all measurements and equipment data presented on existing documentation and project construction documents.

4. Contractor team shall coordinate all construction activities with the COR for the duration of this project.

5. Contractor team shall communicate with the COR and Contracting Officer (CO) on all contractual matters for the duration of this project.

ELECTRICAL SHUTDOWNS

The shutdown of branch circuit panelboards will be required in order to connect new line-voltage circuits for the new pole luminaires. Shutdowns shall be coordinated with NIST, and an 8-week notice for each shutdown shall be provided. Shutdowns include any outages that cause loss of control of HVAC systems, power, lighting, water, or any other building utilities for any length of time. It is crucial that power shutdown activities are closely coordinated with the NIST COR and internal customers. Work schedules/milestone plans will be required to ensure NIST internal customers can work around the work schedule.

Semi-annual full site shutdowns are tentatively scheduled to occur on:

• September 19, 20 2026

• May 22, 23 2027

• September 18, 19 2027

(i) In the subcontractor’s preceding fiscal year, the subcontractor received—

(A)80 percent or more of its annual gross revenues from Federal contracts (and subcontracts); loans, grants (and subgrants); cooperative agreements; and other forms of Federal financial assistance; and

(d) Restriction. The Contractor shall not split or break down subcontracts to a value below the threshold at the Federal Acquisition Regulation 4.208(e), on the date of subcontract award, to avoid the reporting requirements in paragraph (c) of this clause.

(e) Duration. Continued reporting on first-tier subcontracts is not required unless one of the reported data elements changes during the performance of the subcontract. The Contractor is not required to make further reports after a first-tier subcontract expires.

(f) Exceptions.

(1) If the Contractor in the previous tax year had gross income, from all sources, under $300,000, the Contractor is exempt from the requirement to report subcontractor awards.

(2) If a subcontractor in the previous tax year had gross income from all sources under $300,000, the Contractor does not need to report awards for that subcontractor.

(g) Prepopulated data. The Subcontract Reports in SAM will prepopulate with some information from SAM and the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS). If the FPDS information is incorrect, the Contractor should notify the Contracting Officer. If the SAM information is incorrect, the Contractor is responsible for correcting this information.
