About this file

This is a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for cyclic replacement of four HVAC systems at Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area facilities located in Tennessee and Kentucky.

The Government seeks firm-fixed-price quotations for replacement of HVAC units at four BISO (Bureau of Interpretation and Special Operations) buildings, including the Kentucky Ranger Station, Park Headquarters, and Bandy Creek Facilities. The contractor must furnish all labor, materials, equipment, tools, and supervision necessary to complete the work within a 45-day period of performance following notice to proceed (July 30, 2026 to October 30, 2026). Quotations are due by July 17, 2026 at 1700 EDT. This is not a small business set-aside. The work involves HVAC system installation/replacement with specific requirements for compliance with the National Electrical Code, R-410A refrigerant standards, manufacturer specifications, and minimum 14 SEER efficiency ratings. Evaluation criteria prioritize technical capability (acceptable/unacceptable basis) addressing HVAC installation experience on multi-building sites, electrical and refrigerant compliance, and ability to meet schedule and coordinate multiple sites, followed by price and past performance. The Government will award to the responsible small business offeror with technically acceptable proposal offering the lowest evaluated total price. Liability insurance of $1,000,000 per person, $2,000,000 property damage, and $2,000,000 per occurrence is required. Payment requests must be submitted electronically through the Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) system. The Contracting Officer is Ashley Warcewicz and the Technical Point of Contact is Stephen Wilmot. Applicable Department of Labor wage determinations for Tennessee and Kentucky are incorporated. The RFQ includes FAR-based terms and conditions for commercial items and simplified acquisitions.

(g) Contract award (not applicable to Invitation for Bids). The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror’s initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint.

The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest;

accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

Section M B2. 52.212-2 Evaluation—Commercial Products and Commercial Services. (NOV 2021) (TAILORED)

(a) Basis for award.

The Government will award a single firm-fixed-price contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible small business offeror whose offer, conforming to the solicitation, is technically acceptable and offers the lowest evaluated total price, including all options.

The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

1. Technical capability

2. Price

3. Past Performance

For this procurement, Technical capability is evaluated on an acceptable/unacceptable basis; only offers rated acceptable will be evaluated for price. Among those offers, price will be the determining factor for award.

i. Technical capability.

Technical capability will be evaluated on an acceptable/unacceptable basis. To be rated acceptable, the offeror’s submission must demonstrate, through the information required in Section L, that:

• HVAC installation experience. The offeror has performed at least two recent (within the last five years) projects involving installation or replacement of commercial HVAC systems of similar capacity and complexity (e.g., packaged gas-electric units and split-system heat pumps) at multi-building sites. This may be demonstrated through http://www.sam.gov/ the technical narrative and/or the past performance information required in Section L.

o Manufacturer and industry standards for line sets, condensate drainage, sealing of penetrations, and unit installation;

o Capacity and efficiency requirements identified in the Statement of Work (e.g., minimum 14 SEER or current DOE minimum, specified tonnage for each unit).

Compliance may be demonstrated by a brief technical approach narrative and, when requested, equipment specifications/cut sheets indicating capacities, efficiencies, voltages, and refrigerant types that meet the

SOW.

• Ability to meet schedule and coordinate multiple sites. The offeror provides a realistic project schedule showing completion of all work within the 45-day period of performance after notice to proceed, and a description of how the contractor will sequence and staff work at Kentucky Ranger Station, Park Headquarters, and Bandy Creek Facilities without disrupting park operations.

(ii) price; Price will be evaluated based on the total evaluated price

(iii) past performance Past performance will be evaluated on an acceptable/unacceptable basis. To be rated Acceptable, the offeror’s recent and relevant performance record must reflect a reasonable expectation of successful performance of this requirement.

Offerors with no recent and relevant past performance record will receive a “Neutral” past performance rating, which will be treated as Acceptable and will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably compared to other offerors.

If the Government identifies significant performance problems under recent and relevant contracts that are not offset by documented corrective actions, the offeror’s past performance may be rated Unacceptable, and the offer will not be considered further for award

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all option CLINs to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options does not obligate the Government to exercise any option(s).

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
