Staff Parking - Federal Detention Center (FDC) Houston, TX

The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Field Acquisition Office is conducting market research in compliance with FAR Part 10 to procure dedicated parking space services for the Federal Detention Center (FDC) Houston, with a market research questionnaire due June 12, 2026.

The procurement calls for 185 dedicated parking spaces to support approximately 270 employees working varying shifts at the detention center located at 1200 Texas Avenue, Houston, Texas 77002. The parking facility must be located within reasonable walking distance (less than one-third mile) of the center, paved, illuminated to a minimum of four candlepower, and maintained as clean and safe with 24/7/365 access. The contractor must provide armed security for all staff and vehicles and ensure compliance with all local, state, and federal regulations. The contract is structured as one 12-month base year followed by four 12-month option years, with pricing on a per-space basis that includes all charges for parking services.

The NAICS code is 812930 (Parking Lots and Garages), with a small business size standard of $47.0 million in gross revenues. The contractor must provide firm-fixed unit prices for the full contract period and maintain General Liability insurance of $500,000, Automobile Liability of $200,000 per person, Bodily Injury of $500,000, and Property Damage of $20,000. Armed guard service certification in Texas is required. If access controls are implemented, the contractor must supply 280 key cards or access fobs at no additional cost, with replacements capped at $5.00 per card. Failure to provide the required 185 spaces daily results in contractor reimbursement of government costs. Respondents should indicate whether they can begin service within 15 or 30 days following award, acknowledging that security clearance investigations may require 30 or more days. The market research questionnaire must be emailed to jwray@bop.gov by Friday, June 12, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. Central Time.
