The government seeks responses only from potential prime construction contractors classified under NAICS 236220 with a minimum bonding capability of $20 million per single job. The estimated project magnitude ranges between $10 million and $25 million. Responses must include company information, CAGE code, UEI, NAICS code, small business classification status, SAM registration status, narrative demonstrating similar project experience (maximum 5 pages), business size and teaming arrangements, project details with start and end dates and references, and specific bonding capacity information.
