Appraisal services: GATE, Police Department, City of New York, AVIS Project Num

The Department of Interior's Interior Business Center is seeking appraisal services for the New York City Police Department's GATE project in Brooklyn, New York. Specifically, the contract requires eight separate market valuations and appraisal reports to be completed within 75 days. Interested contractors must submit capability statements not exceeding 5 pages by January 31, 2025, at 12:00 PM ET to the designated Contracting Officer and Contract Specialist. The procurement falls under NAICS code 531320 for Offices of Real Estate Appraisers and PSC code R411 for Professional Real Property Appraisals. While the government has indicated an intent to sole-source the contract to Smith Valuation Services, Inc. (dba Standard Valuation Services), they are allowing other firms to submit capability statements and retain discretion to potentially compete the action.

The pre-solicitation notice does not indicate a specific set-aside designation, meaning the opportunity is open to all qualified vendors. The anticipated contract will be a firm-fixed-price agreement, with Smith Valuation Services appearing to be the preferred vendor for the project. No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in the documents. The project requires comprehensive appraisal services for eight distinct property locations, with a relatively short performance period of 75 days. Potential contractors should carefully review the requirements and be prepared to demonstrate their capability to complete the detailed market valuations and appraisal reports within the specified timeframe.
