Summary of Combined Specifications and Contract Opportunity
This is a Combined Specifications document for the Repair and Renovate Dorm 742 project at Malmstrom Air Force Base (MAFB) in Great Falls, Montana. The project is a comprehensive renovation of a 27,000 square-foot dormitory originally built in 1954, with prior renovations in 1996 and 2008. The scope of work is primarily interior-focused, including demolition of existing materials (carpet, vinyl flooring, and mastics containing asbestos), replacement of furnishings and architectural finishes, and reconfiguration of interior spaces with widened doorways to accommodate accessibility requirements. Exterior work encompasses window replacement and repair or replacement of damaged sidewalks. The project also includes structural modifications, mechanical systems (HVAC, controls, and commissioning), electrical systems (lighting, power distribution, and controls), plumbing systems, and fire protection systems. The specifications establish detailed requirements for quality control, building commissioning, environmental protection, waste management, and safety compliance in accordance with OSHA standards, EPA regulations, and Army Corps of Engineers standards (EM 385-1-1).
The related federal contract solicitation (FA4626-26-R-0009) requires contractors to provide all labor, materials, equipment, and services necessary for project completion. A mandatory site visit is scheduled for April 28, 2026, at 10:00 AM MDT at the 341 Contracting Squadron headquarters in Building 145, Room 305. Proposals must be received by May 18, 2026, at 2:00 PM MDT. The specifications require an independent commissioning firm, comprehensive quality control and testing programs, building commissioning for HVAC and controls systems, operation and maintenance manuals with training, as-built drawings, waste diversion of at least 60 percent from landfills, and compliance with sustainability requirements including energy-efficient products and low-VOC materials. The contractor must obtain asbestos remediation permits and conduct professional removal of asbestos-containing materials under strict air monitoring and worker protection protocols. No pricing information, set-asides, or contract vehicle type is specified in these documents.

In addition, the Contractor shall maintain full size mark-up drawings, survey notes, sketches, nameplate data, pricing information, description, and serial numbers of all installed equipment. This information shall be maintained in a current condition at all times until completion of the work. The resulting field-marked prints and data shall be referred to and marked as “As-Built Field Data,” and shall be used for no other purpose. They shall be made available for inspection by the Contracting Officer’s representative whenever requested during construction and shall be jointly inspected for accuracy and completeness by the Contracting Officer’s representative and a responsible representative of the Contractor prior to submission of each pay estimate. If the As-Built Field Data is not accurate and complete, a percentage of the pay request will be withheld from the payment and any future payments until the As-Built Field Data is up to date, complete and accurate. The Contracting Officer will determine the percentage to be retained.

Page Project No. 33GO23261A SECTION 01 00 00 based chalk (Aervoe Pacific Inc. 1-800-227-0196 or equal). No paints will be used. Detailed permit procedures and guidelines shall be provided to the contractor during the Pre-performance Conference. Digging within three feet of buried communications cables, environmental monitoring wells, electrical cables, irrigation systems, and gas lines shall be performed by hand digging until the utility is exposed. The Project Inspector shall be notified three days prior to digging within a three-foot area near this utility. A representative from the Communications Office must be present during excavation of Communications Cables. The cable routes must be marked prior to excavation in the area. The Contractor shall be held responsible for any damage to a marked or identified utility by excavation procedures. Once the utility is exposed, mechanical excavation may be used if there is no chance of damage occurring to the cable or piping system. The contractor is responsible for marking all excavations he will do, five (5) work days prior to needing existing utilities marked by the government.
B. Reburial of Exposed Utilities: When existing utility lines are reburied, a tape, detectable by pipe detector systems, shall be installed above the uncovered length of the utility at a depth of 12 inches below grade. Tape shall be a minimum five mil plastic tape with metallic tracer, minimum six inches wide, lettering on tape continuously marked “BURIED UTILITY”, and brightly colored.

Work will be inspected by Communications Squadron and personnel.
E. All utilities or anticipated underground obstacle crossings must be located by manual and other non-destructive excavation (hydro-vac) prior to mechanical excavation. All non-destructive excavation shall be considered incidental to project completion.
3.14 UTILITY OUTAGES
A. All utilities programmed to be interrupted during construction shall be scheduled at least 14 working days in advance of the outage and at a time convenient for the government. The “Utility Outage Notice” will be completed by the Contractor and submitted to Construction Management for approval.

The contractor shall schedule and submit all required items for major systems (such as HVAC, etc) at the same time to enhance review of interrelated components. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to ensure the dates provided on the form do not create any delays in construction. Provide the completed form to the Contracting Officer at or prior to the Pre-Construction meeting. The completed form will then be used by the Government for tracking submittal progress. If the contractor is proposing to use an exact brand name or product identified, a submittal for that item is not required. In lieu of a submittal, the contractor shall submit a letter to the Contracting Officer outlining each item that will be provided exactly as specified. These items will also be annotated as such on the AF Form 66. Even though a specified product is provided, in some circumstances a submittal may still be required for color selection, etc. If a recycle initiative product is specified and the contractor wishes to provide a substitute product, the Contractor shall request the substitution as indicated in paragraph 3.28 of this Section.
3.16 CONTRACTOR STORAGE AREA AND WORK SITE:
A. Prior to notice to proceed, Contractor will be provided a storage area on the base within three miles of the project site or as designated on the site plan.
