Quotes are due by February 4, 2025, at 5:00 PM Mountain Time and must be submitted via email to Amber Sampson. The government will evaluate quotes using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) methodology, considering technical acceptance, past performance, and price.
The solicitation is not set aside for any specific small business category, though it falls under NAICS code 811310 with a small business size standard of $12.5 million. The period of performance is 90 days after contract award, with work to be completed at the NBAF facility located at 1980 Denison Ave in Manhattan, Kansas.
