About this opportunity

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service is soliciting quotations for drain modifications and equipment removal at the Mechanical Services Building at the Eastern Regional Research Center in Wyndmoor, Pennsylvania. The work involves removing three insulated boxes and installing nine floor drains on the second floor, including concrete coring, installation of flush-to-floor drain assemblies, connection to existing first-floor overhead piping, and epoxy floor patching to match existing finishes. All floor drains and piping must be Flame-Resistant Polypropylene (FRPP) conforming to ASTM D4101 and ASTM F1412, with thermal fusion fittings and UL-certified sealant for all penetrations. The Government will evaluate offers on a lowest-priced, technically acceptable basis under FAR 12.203 criteria, requiring offerors to submit a technical approach narrative, company experience documentation with relevant project references from the past three years, and past performance information. The deadline for submitting written questions is April 13, 2026 at 4:00 PM EDT, and quotations are due by April 24, 2026 at 3:00 PM local time, with site visits scheduled for March 31 and April 1, 2026 to allow contractors to familiarize themselves with the facility.

This is a Total Small Business Set-Aside with a small business size standard of $19.0 million under NAICS code 238220. No incumbents are identified in the solicitation materials. The contract timeline requires work to begin within 14 calendar days of receiving a notice to proceed and be completed within 180 calendar days during normal business hours (Monday through Friday, 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM). Davis-Bacon prevailing wage rates apply to this project, with rates for Montgomery County, Pennsylvania ranging from $21.31 to $72.52 per hour depending on the trade classification, and the contractor must provide a minimum one-year warranty on all materials and labor. Performance and payment bonds are required within 14 calendar days of award, and all contractor personnel must complete 10-hour OSHA Construction Safety certification before work commences, with supervisors requiring 30-hour training.

_______________________________________________________

This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Part 12.  This announcement constitutes the only solicitation.  Quotations are being requested and a separate written solicitation will not be issued. 

Solicitation number 1232SA26Q0340 is issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for drain modifications and equipment removal in the mechanical services building at the Eastern Regional Research Center.

This acquisition  is set-aside for small business concerns.  The applicable North American Industry Classification Standard Code is 238220.  The small business size standard is $19.0 million.  This acquisition is a Total Small Business Set-Aside.  All responsible sources may submit a quotation which will be considered by the agency. 

Organized site visits have been scheduled for March 31, 2026 at 1:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) and April 1, 2026 at 9:00 AM EDT.  The same information will be provided at both site visits, so offerors only need to attend one.  Contractors wishing to attend the site visit must RSVP by emailing josh.dobereiner@usda.gov by March 30, 2026 at 4:00 PM EDT with the names of attendees, company they are with, and company(s) they are representing.  A Government issued photo ID is required for attendance.

The site visit will be held for the purpose of providing contractors with the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the site, which may be helpful in the preparation of quotes.  Attendance at the site visit is not mandatory for quote submission; however, failure to visit the site will not relieve or mitigate the successful contractor’s responsibility and obligation to fully comply with the terms, conditions, and specifications contained and/or referenced in this document.
