Utility Buildings for the San Juan National Forest

The Department of Agriculture Forest Service R2-Rocky Mountain Region is seeking a small business contractor to supply, deliver, and install a precast concrete utility building at the Monument Fire Center in Monument, Colorado. The project involves constructing a 10' x 18' Granite Peak accessible utility building with specific architectural requirements, including simulated stone and wood siding exterior walls, insulated wall panels with a minimum R10 rating, 72" x 80" double doors, a simulated wood shake gable roof, louvered door vent, and up to three 12" diameter floor penetrations. The contract will be awarded under NAICS code 238120 for Structural Steel and Precast Concrete Contractors, with a size standard of $19 million. Interested parties must submit Statements of Capability within 15 days of the January 2, 2025 posting, directly to Erick Plamann at erick.plamann@usda.gov, and include their business classification status. Potential contractors should note that government excavation and backfill are excluded from the project scope.

The contract opportunity is designated as a total small business set-aside, with an anticipated contract value ranging between $25,000 and $100,000. This pre-solicitation notice indicates a firm-fixed-price contract will be awarded, targeting small businesses capable of meeting the detailed technical specifications for the utility building. The procurement timeline suggests submissions are due by January 17, 2025, providing potential bidders approximately two weeks to prepare and submit their capabilities. No specific incumbent contractor is mentioned in the documentation, and the project appears to be a new construction initiative for the Forest Service's Rocky Mountain Region. The contract will require precise construction capabilities, particularly in precast concrete work, with specific attention to the detailed architectural and structural requirements outlined in the synopsis.
