Combined Project-Billings Cellblock refresh, Bozeman Wall addition, Bozeman Freezer HVAC

The General Services Administration (GSA) is seeking qualified contractors to perform three distinct construction and renovation projects at federal facilities in Montana, encompassing stainless steel restoration, office build-out construction, and HVAC system installation. The primary requirements include removing damage from stainless steel surfaces at the Billings USMS facility, constructing a new office wall with metal studs at the Bozeman FSA location, and installing a heat removal system for ultra-low temperature freezers at the Bozeman FWS facility. Contractors must provide all labor, materials, equipment, and supervision while maintaining compliance with applicable codes, OSHA standards, and GSA safety requirements, with coordination required during business hours and HSPD-12 badge clearance mandatory. The solicitation requires contractors to submit detailed cost breakdowns and proposed solutions, with the HVAC component allowing for two alternative system options to be evaluated based on contractor investigation and pricing proposals. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on March 18, 2026, with a response deadline of April 1, 2026.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to small business entities meeting SBA size standards under NAICS code 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and PSC code Z2AA (Repair Or Alteration Of Office Buildings). No specific incumbent contractors or current contractors are identified in the pre-solicitation materials. The notice does not disclose a specific award value or budget range for the combined projects, requiring interested contractors to conduct site assessments and develop competitive proposals based on the detailed scope of work provided. The three projects must address distinct facility systems including surface restoration, structural construction with electrical integration, and specialized HVAC maintenance capable of maintaining temperature ranges between 64.4°F and 89.6°F. Prospective bidders should anticipate that proposals will be evaluated on technical merit, cost competitiveness, and demonstrated capability to meet the prescribed technical specifications across all three project components.
