· 31 Chairs

· Will require disassembly, reupholstery, and reassembly

2.1 Current Status: The current upholstery on the pews and kneelers are over 20 years old and suffer from numerous tears rips, stains, broken hardware and missing kneelers. Major cleaning and repair were conducted in 2022. At that time, it was determined the only way to repair much of the rips and tears was to reupholster the pews. New fabric for this project’s reupholstery must match the current fabric.

2.2 End State Objective: The end state objective is for the chapel to have clean, like-new pews and kneelers which match the current décor of the Sanctuary, thereby not detracting from services or ceremonies taking place.

3. Place of Performance Constraints: The operations of the Regimental Memorial Chapel will continue throughout contract period of performance, meaning work will require completion in stages to foster the least possible impact on services. The contractor must be able to provide all requirements to meet mission objectives in accordance with this SOO.

3.1 Weekly/Weekend Service Times: Regimental Memorial Chapel hosts weekly mass as well as other religious accomodations throughout the week. Weekly mass is held every week, Tuesday through Friday from 1145-1245 and will continue being held in the chapel throughout contract period of performance. Every other event varies and can be placed in separate locations to provide contractor’s ease of access to the chapel, with the exception of Memorial Ceremonies. Memorial Ceremonies are at a minimum scheduled one to two weeks out and can be cooridnated with the contractor to ensure the Chapel is neat and tidy.

The contractor must be aware of the chapel schedule and agree to provide any needed accomodation to ensure smooth operations of chapel services. By the close of business each day the contractor will ensure no pews/etc. are left half-completed, and all equipment set aside so there will be no interferance with Mass and weekend Services. The contractor will not be working on weekends.
