NAVCC Security Desk Replacement

The Library of Congress is soliciting proposals for the replacement of the security desk at the National Audio-Visual Conservation Center (NAVCC) Packard Campus in Culpeter, Virginia. The procurement seeks a contractor to design, specify, manufacture, and install a custom-built security reception desk that includes a 24/7 heavy-duty guard chair, integrated electrical and data cabling wire management, hinged door access panel, and related accessories. Key requirements specify the use of solid surface materials (minimum 93% crushed quartz), wood grain vertical surfaces, a U-shaped desk configuration, and ADA compliance. The government will evaluate proposals using a best value trade-off approach with non-price factors being significantly more important than price, prioritizing technical approach and project plan as the most important evaluation factor, followed by past performance, and then price. Critical deadlines include a mandatory pre-proposal site visit on June 2, 2025, with offeror notification required by May 28, 2025, and the final proposal submission deadline of June 16, 2025, at 1:00 PM.

This solicitation includes no set-aside designations and is unrestricted to all eligible contractors. No incumbent contractor is identified, as this represents a new contract requirement. The specific award value or budget range is not disclosed in the available documentation. The performance period extends from August 18, 2025, through May 29, 2026, requiring the contractor to coordinate disassembly of the existing desk, delivery and installation of the new desk, and integration with the Library's existing electrical, information technology, and security systems while maintaining 24/7 security operations with minimal interruption. All work will be performed at the NAVCC Packard Campus located in Culpeper, Virginia 22701.
