Rehab nike missile hangar doors

The Department of the Interior National Park Service Southeast Region is seeking contractors to rehabilitate Nike Missile hangar doors at the HM-69 Nike Missile Site in Everglades National Park, Florida. This comprehensive rehabilitation project involves in-kind replacement and restoration of metal "A" frame suspension systems, hangar doors, metal hood covers, and related components for three missile shelter buildings, with work beginning at Building C. The project requires specialized expertise in lead-based paint abatement, historic preservation compliance with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation, and application of a three-coat painting system including zinc-rich epoxy primer, epoxy mastic intermediate coat, and aliphatic polyurethane topcoat. Contractors must submit technical proposals not exceeding 20 pages, past performance questionnaires for three similar projects, and comprehensive cost proposals by August 21, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. ET. The government will evaluate proposals based on technical approach, past performance, and cost, with non-cost factors being significantly more important than price.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, requiring contractors to have this designation in their SAM.gov registration to be eligible for award. The contract will be structured as a firm fixed-price construction contract with a performance period from September 1, 2025, to February 6, 2026, though recent amendments indicate the period may extend from October 1, 2025, to March 6, 2026. Contractors must provide a 20% bid bond with their proposal and will be required to furnish performance and payment bonds upon award. The project is located at 40001 State Road 9336, Homestead, FL 33034, within the historically significant Cold War-era Nike Missile Site that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Work must be performed on one hangar at a time with strict adherence to historic preservation standards, environmental containment measures for lead abatement, and prevailing wage rates as specified in the Davis-Bacon Wage Determination for Miami-Dade County.
