About this opportunity
The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 3 has awarded a firm fixed price task order under a sole-source exception to fair opportunity to Dubois Construction, Inc. for design and construction services to fit out an existing but unaccredited Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility at the John W. Powell Building in Reston, Virginia, on May 15, 2026.
The justification cites FAR 16.507-6(b)(1), urgent mission requirements. The existing month-to-month lease costs $1.7 million per month, creating unacceptable financial and operational risk. A fair opportunity procurement would add one to two months to the timeline and require an additional $3.4 million in lease costs. Dubois Construction is a woman-owned small business with prior experience on two SCIF fit-out projects under GSA contract and demonstrated performance in timely proposals, negotiations, and post-award execution.
The task order is issued against the Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity Contract for General Construction Services in the East Coast Corridor under GSA 300. Work includes SCIF infrastructure fit-out, card reader installation, mini-split HVAC systems, white noise units, wall soundproofing, and electrical work, funded with customer-provided BA 80 funds. The work is classified under NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and PSC Z2AA (Repair or Alteration of Office Buildings). Certified cost and pricing data is not required as the contract value falls below the $2.5 million threshold. No subsequent acquisitions are anticipated for this discrete project. Dubois Construction is located in Windsor Mill, Maryland.
