The National Park Service seeks fabrication of 15 double-sided aluminum wayside exhibit panels for the National Park of American Samoa, with proposals due July 13, 2026 and questions due June 24. This is a total small business set-aside under NAICS 339950 (Sign Manufacturing) with a 500-employee size standard.

Place of performance is Pago Pago, American Samoa. The contractor shall fabricate 15 panels measuring 36 by 24 inches (two panels measure 42 by 24 inches), each with 1/8 inch aluminum thickness and clear powder coat finish. Deliverables include PDF proofs, an audio description text script, and the fabricated panels, all due December 31, 2026. Digital deliverables ship to a TEAMS folder; fabricated panels ship FOB destination prepaid to the National Park of American Samoa, MHJ Building, 2nd Floor, Pago Pago, AS 96799. The contractor bears no responsibility for mounting hardware, bases, supporting components, or audio hardware procurement. Amendment 0001, effective June 25, clarifies that panels bear identical graphics on both sides and that audio description scope is limited to a text script describing panels and surrounding landscape, with the park providing reference photographs.

The contract is firm-fixed-price with two payment milestones: PDF proof approval and fabricated panels with audio description delivery. Offerors may propose alternative payment schedules.

Evaluation weighs technical capability (demonstrated through 1–3 project samples with photographs and narratives) and past performance (three completed questionnaires for similar projects) significantly higher than cost. The contractor must guarantee workmanship against defects for a minimum of one year from final acceptance at no additional cost.
