About this file

This is a Request for Quote (RFQ) for art conservation and preservation services issued by the Department of the Interior's Interior Business Center on behalf of the Museum of the Plains Indian (MPI).

The Museum of the Plains Indian requires onsite treatment of historic art as specified in the attached Statement of Work. The service is categorized under Product/Service Code B521 (Special Studies/Analysis–Historical) with a period of performance from July 12, 2026 to July 17, 2026. This is a firm fixed price acquisition set aside for small business concerns, with an unrestricted set-aside of 100%. The RFQ number is 140D0426Q0528, with quotes due by 5:00 PM Eastern Time on June 4, 2026. Quotations must be submitted to Contracting Officer Joelle Donovan (joelle_donovan@ibc.doi.gov) with a copy to Contracting Specialist Scott Szczesniak (scott_szczesniak@ibc.doi.gov).

Evaluation will be based on three factors: Technical Approach (demonstrating understanding of SOW requirements), Past Performance (assessed through CPARS with acceptable ratings requiring satisfactory or better delivery records), and Price (evaluated for reasonableness considering labor mix and effort). Technical approach and past performance combined are weighted more heavily than price. The NAICS code is 712110 with a size standard of $34 million. Award will be made to the quote determined most advantageous to the Government. Service Contract Labor Standards (SCLS) apply to this acquisition. Invoicing must be submitted electronically through the Treasury's Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) with payment due 30 days after proper invoice receipt.

The Offeror shall follow the instructions contained in this RFQ and supply all information and signatures/certifications as required.

Quote Factors.

Factor 1: Technical Approach

The quoter shall describe how its technical approach impacts the requirements described within the SOW. The quoter shall demonstrate understanding and its importance to each task required within the

SOW.

Factor 2: Past Performance:

3. Period of performance

4. Contract value

5. Brief description of the services performed and their similarity to this requirement.

6. Government point of contact (name, title, phone number, and email address)

Quoters are advised that an unacceptable past performance rating requires a documented finding that the quoter's past performance record demonstrates a pattern of material failures likely to recur; a single negative reference will not automatically result in an unacceptable rating.

Factor 3: Price

Quoters shall indicate in their price quote whether any proposed labor categories may be subject to the Service Contract Labor Standards (SCLS). Any labor categories noted as covered by the SCLS will be subject to the applicable SCLS FAR requirements.

BASIS OF AWARD:

Award will be made to the quote determined to be the most advantageous to the Government based on Technical approach and price in accordance with RFO 12.203.

Factor 1: Technical Approach

The Government will evaluate the technical approach by considering the degree of clarity and comprehensiveness of the approach and understanding of the requirements described in the SOW.

Factor 2: Past Performance:

Past performance will be evaluated using the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS). A quoters' past performance will be considered acceptable if they have a satisfactory or better record of delivering the same or similar services on time and in conformance with contract requirements.

An unacceptable rating requires a documented finding that the quoter's past performance record demonstrates a pattern of material failures likely to recur. Neutral rating will be assigned in the absence of past performance records.

Factor 3: Price The price evaluation will be performed in accordance with RFO 12.204(a), price reasonableness will be evaluated for the base and all option years inclusive of FAR 52.217-8 considering the level of effort and the mix of labor proposed to perform a specific task being ordered, and for determining that the total price is reasonable.
