Cabinet Air Conditioning Interval Preventative Mai

The Department of the Interior's Interior Business Center is soliciting proposals for ongoing preventative maintenance services for air conditioning equipment at the DOI Main Interior Building. The contract requires maintenance services for 26 Ice Qube air conditioning units and evaporators, with the work falling under NAICS code 561210 (Facilities Support Services) and PSC code J041 for refrigeration and air conditioning equipment maintenance and repair. This is a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued through solicitation number 140D0425Q0709, with the solicitation document issued on August 22, 2025. The proposal submission deadline was September 2, 2025, making this an extremely tight timeline for interested contractors. The Interior Business Center's Acquisition Services Directorate in Herndon, VA is administering this procurement using Standard Form 1449 for commercial items.

This opportunity is designated as an 8(a) sole source procurement, indicating it is specifically set aside for small disadvantaged businesses participating in the SBA's 8(a) Business Development Program. The NAICS size standard for this procurement is $47 million, providing the qualification threshold for small business eligibility. The contract will involve ongoing maintenance services, suggesting a recurring service arrangement rather than a one-time project, though specific contract duration and value information are not detailed in the available documentation. The work will be performed at the Department of the Interior's Main Interior Building, requiring the selected contractor to provide regular preventative maintenance services for the building's specialized Ice Qube air conditioning system. The tight turnaround between solicitation issuance and response deadline suggests this may be an urgent requirement or a renewal of existing services.
