About this file
This statement of work outlines the requirements for duct cleaning and HVAC system replacement services at the James L. King Federal Justice Building in Miami, Florida. The General Services Administration seeks a contractor to clean the ductwork and HVAC equipment on the 1st through 12th floors, replacing outdated sound attenuators and installing new condensate drain lines. The contractor must follow NADCA cleaning standards and use EPA-approved disinfectants to clean all duct surfaces, supply diffusers, return grilles, evaporator coils, condensate drain pans, and blower motors. The contractor will also replace the floor pressurization ductwork located in each mechanical room. The anticipated schedule is 10 calendar days per floor on weekends or holidays to minimize disruption. The contractor must provide certified workers and documentation demonstrating compliance with the specifications.

Upon completion of the Work, the Contractor shall collect all lists maintained in accordance with this clause, including those maintained by any subcontractors and/or suppliers, and submits them to the Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer may withhold final payment until the lists are received.
(vi) This Contract requires that the Contractor retain beyond the period of performance certain records that may contain SBU building information. With the exception of such records, upon completion of the Work, the Contractor shall either destroy all records containing SBU building information or return them to the Contracting Officer, as directed by the Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall destroy electronically stored SBU building information by deleting it or otherwise rendering it unreadable and incapable of being restored, in accordance with guidelines provided for media sanitization within Appendix A of NIST Special Publication 800-88, Guidelines for Media Sanitization, available at http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/800-88/NISTSP800- 88_rev1.pdf. Examples of acceptable destruction methods for SBU building information are:
burning or shredding hardcopies; physically destroying portable electronic storage devices;
deleting and removing files from electronic recycling bins; and removing material from computer and hard drives using a permanent-erase utility such as bit-wiping software or disk crushers.
(vii) The Contractor shall verify to the Contracting Officer in writing that SBU building information has been disposed of as required in subparagraph (vi). The Contracting Officer may withhold final payment until written verification is received.
(viii) The Contractor shall immediately report to the Contracting Officer all improper disclosures of SBU building information.
