127EAW26Q0002 - Stanislaus NF Admin Site Improvements

The U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service is soliciting quotes for administrative site building improvements at the Stanislaus National Forest, including roof replacement, exterior painting, siding repairs, and debris removal across nine buildings at two locations in California. Key contract requirements include compliance with 2024 International Building Code, 2021 Uniform Plumbing Code, 2024 NFPA 101 Life Safety Code, 2023 National Electrical Code, and 2024 Uniform Mechanical Code, with work restricted to Monday-Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The contractor must provide a detailed project schedule at a pre-work meeting, submit 24-hour notice before mobilization, and complete all work within 180 calendar days of receiving notice to proceed. Award will be made to the highest technically rated offeror on a firm-fixed-price basis, provided the price is fair and reasonable and past performance is acceptable or neutral—award will not necessarily go to the lowest-priced offeror. Evaluation criteria include technical approach (with emphasis on capability, subcontracting plans, work sequencing, and resource planning), past performance (three similar projects completed within the last three years with references), and price. Critical deadlines include a mandatory site visit on February 11, 2026, at 10:00 AM Pacific Time at Summit Ranger District Office, Requests for Information due by February 18, 2026, at 1:00 PM Pacific Time, and quotation submissions due by March 3, 2026, at 1:00 PM Pacific Time.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 238990 (All Other Specialty Trade Contractors), with a small business size standard of $19 million. The estimated project magnitude is between $250,000 and $500,000, with work scheduled to commence in Spring 2026 and extend for 180 calendar days. The scope of work encompasses 11 line items including mobilization, roofing demolition (51 squares), roofing fastener replacement (32 squares), roof sheathing replacement (300 square feet), exterior damage repair (100 square feet), asphalt shingle replacement (21 squares), synthetic cedar shake roofing (30 squares), metal roof coating (32 squares), spray-applied fireproofing (7 squares), and exterior painting for body and trim components. Performance and payment bonds are required, with bonds due 10 calendar days after award, and the contractor must have an active SAM.gov registration. Work will take place at two administrative sites within the Stanislaus National Forest: Hathaway Pines Administrative Site in Calaveras County and Strawberry Administrative Site in Tuolumne County, both located in Pinecrest, California, with sites remaining open for Forest Service administrative use during construction.
