Source Sought Notice GATE 308504 Hangars

The National Park Service Denver Service Center is seeking information regarding the rehabilitation of Hangars 3 and 4 at Floyd Bennett Field in Gateway National Recreation Area, New York through this Sources Sought Notice (SSN). This market research initiative is designed to gather knowledge about interested businesses and their qualifications to inform acquisition strategy and determine the feasibility of small business or socio-economic set-asides for the eventual solicitation. The project requires comprehensive restoration of two historic contributing structures, including demolition, exterior restoration, interior restoration, and systems installation, all of which must comply with Secretary of Interior Standards for Historic Properties. The government is not requesting formal proposals at this time but rather responses to a Sources Sought Survey Questionnaire via email to the Contract Specialist Charles D. Thompson and Contracting Officer Linda Melnick by March 11, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The NPS anticipates issuing a competitive Request for Proposals around April 2026, with award of a single Firm-Fixed-Price contract expected to follow.

This opportunity has not been designated with any set-aside for small businesses or other socio-economic categories at the pre-solicitation stage, though such designations may be implemented based on response quality and market interest. The project falls under NAICS code 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) with a size standard of $45 million and a magnitude range exceeding $10,000,000, indicating a substantial contract value. The anticipated period of performance is 487 calendar days, with winter construction potentially required, and the urban construction site is located approximately 4 miles from suppliers and lodging with sufficient adjacent staging areas. Bid, Performance, and Payment Bonds are anticipated to be required for this contract. No reimbursement will be provided for costs associated with preparing responses to this Sources Sought Notice.
