Amendment to ITM Sources Sought

This Special Notice is an amendment to a previously issued Sources Sought Notice (SSN) for the National Park Service (NPS) Structural Fire Program Office. The amendment updates the NAICS code classification from 541350 to 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), while maintaining all other dates and terms of the original notice. The NPS, operating under the Department of the Interior, is seeking qualified contractors to establish a five-year, indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract. This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, limiting competition to small business entities. The notice was posted on February 2, 2026, with a submission deadline of February 16, 2026.

The primary objective of this contract is to provide inspection, testing, and maintenance (ITM) services for fire protection and life safety systems across NPS facilities. Given that the NPS manages over 430 parks containing more than 27,000 structures, many equipped with fire protection and life safety systems, these services are critical to ensuring compliance with the International Fire Code (IFC), applicable NFPA standards, and NPS policies such as RM 58: Structural Fire Management. The contract will require contractors to ensure that fire protection and life safety systems function as designed to provide early warning and suppression capabilities for fire incidents. Eligible contractors must be certified small businesses and possess the technical expertise and certifications necessary to conduct ITM activities in accordance with federal fire safety standards. Interested contractors should note the February 16, 2026 deadline for responding to this Sources Sought notice, which is intended to gather information before formal solicitation.
