The Government has not predetermined the number of agreements or released anticipated budgets for individual projects.

Vendors must demonstrate minimum three completed industrialized construction commercial projects of at least $25 million each within the past ten years, or three completed CDC or school industrialized construction projects exceeding 25,000 square feet each. White papers must address integrated industrialized construction processes, clearly defined team roles, pre-manufactured value percentages, cost reduction of 20 percent or more and timeline reduction of 30 percent or more compared to traditional construction, organizational capacity, identified manufacturer name and factory address, bonding capacity, and quality control frameworks. Submissions must not exceed 10 pages in 12-point font. Vendors must comply with Buy American Act, Davis Bacon Act, Miller Act, and Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification requirements. An Interested Parties List will be posted to facilitate teaming. The NAICS code is 236220, Commercial and Institutional Building Construction.
