Long - historical reproduction curtains

The National Park Service Northeast Region is seeking a contractor to reproduce and install nine sets of historical window curtains (18 curtains total) with associated tiebacks for three second-floor chambers at the Longfellow House Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The curtains must precisely replicate original historic textiles based on museum collection samples, with specific requirements for fabric type, color, and design details for the Alice Longfellow Bedroom, Second Floor Front Hall, and Alice Longfellow Study. Contractors will be evaluated on technical capability, personnel qualifications, past performance, and price, with non-price factors being significantly more important than price. The solicitation includes a mandatory site visit that was scheduled for July 16, 2025, and quotes must be submitted via email to Mari Tolleson by 10:00 AM ET on July 28, 2025. Amendment 0002 clarified that flame retardant treatment is not required for these historical reproduction curtains.

This procurement is designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 314120 (Curtain and Linen Mills), with no incumbent contractors identified in the documentation. The contract is structured as a firm-fixed-price purchase order for commercial services, though no specific budget range or award value is disclosed in the available materials. The period of performance runs from August 1, 2025, to April 30, 2026, with delivery required by April 30, 2026. Work will be performed at the historic Longfellow House located at 105 Brattle Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where the contractor must install the reproduced curtains using existing historic curtain rods and rings where possible. The project includes comprehensive documentation requirements, including descriptions of original documents, proposed manufacturing methods, and technical data for lining and interlining materials.
