USDA Seattle ADA-Compliant Button Installation (4 Sets of Doors)

The General Services Administration (GSA) Public Buildings Service Region 10 is seeking services for the installation of ADA-compliant automatic door openers at the USDA Pacific Wildland Fire Sciences Laboratory in Seattle, Washington. The solicitation requires a contractor to install four sets of door openers, providing all necessary labor, materials, equipment, and project management to integrate the new systems with the existing access control infrastructure. The contract will be awarded using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation method, with proposals assessed on product information/warranty, project approach, previous experience, and past performance. Key dates include a mandatory site visit on January 7, 2025, and a proposal submission deadline of February 14, 2025 at 3:00 PM Pacific Time. Vendors must submit questions to the Contract Specialist, Cynthia Zhang, by January 9, 2025, with responses published via amendment on SAM.gov.

The solicitation is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 238290 with a $22M size standard, targeting Other Building Equipment Contractors. There is no indication of an incumbent contractor, as this appears to be a new requirement for a one-time purchase order. The period of performance is 60 days after contract award, with work to be completed between February 7 and April 8, 2025. The project will take place at 915 Second Avenue in Seattle, specifically in Suite 201 of the Burke Building, which encompasses approximately 10,000 square feet. The contract is structured as a Firm-Fixed Price agreement, with the contractor responsible for installing door openers, providing power sources, integrating with existing access systems, and ensuring compliance with all relevant building codes and GSA sustainable product requirements. The facility will remain occupied during construction, requiring careful coordination and daily cleanup by the selected contractor.
