This document contains the questions and answers from an Industry Day event, along with details of a related special notice. The Industry Day was held on December 7, 2021 to provide information to industry about Solicitation W912DW22R0LFP, which seeks a design-build contractor via a two-phase best value procurement to construct an ARS/WSU Plant Bioscience Research Building in Pullman, Washington. Key details include that the project value is approximately $80 million, Buy American requirements apply, a Project Labor Agreement may be required, and the solicitation will have small business goals.
