About this opportunity
The USDA Agricultural Research Service is seeking Operation and Maintenance Support Services for their US Vegetable Laboratory facility in Charleston, South Carolina through Request for Quote (RFQ) number 1232SA25Q0541. The comprehensive services include preventive and remedial maintenance for buildings, grounds, HVAC systems, electrical services, plumbing, custodial services, and equipment maintenance to support the facility's critical vegetable crop research mission. Contractors must demonstrate experience with similar federal facility maintenance services completed within the last two years and provide a detailed management approach showing understanding of service requirements. The contract will be evaluated using the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable method, assessing vendors on Management Approach, Experience, and Price on a pass/fail basis with ratings of Acceptable or Unacceptable. The solicitation deadline is September 10, 2025 at 10:00 AM ET, with multiple amendments issued to provide questions and answers and updated facility maps.
This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 561210 (Facilities Support Services) with a size standard of $47 million, and no incumbent contractor is currently providing these services at the site. The contract structure includes a one-year Firm Fixed Price base period for routine operations and maintenance services (CLIN 0001) covering 12 months of service, plus an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity component (CLIN 0002) for additional work orders with a not-to-exceed limit priced using fully burdened labor rates. The facility encompasses approximately 90,000 square feet of cleaning area, 2.2 acres of grounds maintenance, 33 laboratories, 46 offices, and 11 restrooms across multiple buildings. Performance will take place at the USDA facility located at 2700 Savannah Highway in Charleston, South Carolina, where the contractor will maintain critical infrastructure supporting vegetable crop genetics research and integrated pest management systems development. The government does not guarantee a specific volume of additional work under the IDIQ component, with approximately 2% of routine work orders potentially being reclassified as additional work requiring separate task orders.
