The solicitation is designated as a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 238290 with a $22 million size standard, targeting other building equipment contractors. The elevator inspection services will cover facilities including the Fire Station, Industrial Area, Visitor Center, Pump Generator Plant, Left and Right Powerhouses, Main Dam, Third Power Plant, and Wing Dam. The contract includes a base year and four one-year option periods, potentially extending services through March 2, 2030. The government will provide a weightless elevator inspection system and physical weights for testing, and the elevators range in payload capacities from 2,100 to 44,000 lbs, with installation dates spanning from 1942 to 2024. Notable locations include multiple power houses, the main dam, and various facility buildings, with some specific elevators like the TPP Inclined Elevator currently noted as out of service.
