Roof Replacement - MD

The Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service is procuring roof replacement services for the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center in Cambridge, Maryland. The project involves removing approximately 13,500 square feet of existing shingled roofing and replacing it with a 24-gauge standing seam metal or .050 aluminum roof system that meets FEMA specifications for 150-mph hurricane wind resistance. Contractors must provide all labor, materials, and equipment for the complete roof replacement, including gutters, flashing, soffit, fascia, ridge vents, and any damaged siding, with a minimum 10-year warranty on installation, materials, and paint. The evaluation will use a best-value tradeoff process considering recent relevant experience from the past five years, technical capabilities and ability to deliver, and price, with non-price factors weighted at 51% of the total evaluation. Proposals are due by August 29, 2025, at 3:00 PM EST, with a mandatory site visit scheduled for July 10, 2025, at 8:30 AM ET.

This solicitation is set aside exclusively for small businesses under NAICS code 238160 (Roofing Contractors), with no incumbent contractors identified in the documentation. The project value is estimated to be between $250,000 and $500,000, structured as a firm-fixed-price contract with two main line items for roof removal/inspection and roof installation. The anticipated period of performance is five months, specifically from September 12, 2025, to February 27, 2026, with a completion timeline of 150 calendar days from the notice to proceed. The work will be performed at the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center in Cambridge, Maryland, with the building remaining staffed and open to visitors during construction. Contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and may be required to provide performance and payment bonds depending on total construction costs.
