About this opportunity
GSA Public Buildings Service awarded contract 47PD5226C0003 to HED (DUNS 44960581) on a sole-source basis for construction management and inspection services during switchgear replacement at the Mahon Federal Courthouse in Fort Worth, Texas.
The justification rests on HED's role as the original architect firm that designed the switchgear system. GSA contends that HED possesses unparalleled, in-depth understanding of design intent, technical specifications, and underlying design assumptions essential for effective oversight and immediate recognition of construction deviations. The scope encompasses contractor submittal reviews, site inspections, design specification verification, field condition resolution, change order management, and technical guidance throughout the construction phase. Additional justification factors include HED's ability as the design authority to efficiently resolve construction issues and design changes, the critical and urgent nature of the replacement due to existing equipment being past its life expectancy, and the need for operational continuity at the courthouse. GSA cited risk mitigation against project delays, increased costs, and design interpretation errors, as well as leveraging the prior investment in HED's design work. The contracting officer Kevin Mack certified the justification on August 18, 2026, with price reasonableness to be determined through detailed cost proposal analysis, historical data comparison, market research, and an independent government estimate. The award was posted August 21, 2026.
