About this file

This is a request for proposal for a small arms range project. The USPFO for Minnesota is seeking a firm fixed-price contract for services to provide all labor, materials, equipment, and supervision necessary to construct a manufactured containerized small arms range and conventionally constructed CATM facility attached to the range. The project scope includes site work, utilities, and all structural, architectural, mechanical, and electrical systems to support the facilities. The magnitude of the project is between $5 million and $10 million, with a 360-day completion time after notice to proceed. The NAICS code is 236220 and it is set aside for small businesses with a size standard of $39.5 million. The pre-proposal conference is on June 3, 2021 and the solicitation closing date is June 22, 2021. The source selection will be conducted in accordance with FAR Part 15.3 using best value past performance and price factors. Interested offerors must register in SAM and check the website periodically for amendments, as the website is the sole method of distributing information. Place of performance is the Duluth National Guard Base in Minnesota.
