WOTR 226765 - Renovate Theatrical Stage Rigging Machinery Systems

This pre-solicitation notice announces the National Park Service's intent to solicit proposals to renovate the theatrical stage rigging machinery systems at Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts in Vienna, Virginia. The project aims to replace the 30-year old rigging system used for performances at the Filene Center, which includes equipment for lifting scenery, lighting, sound, and the orchestra shell above the stage. The solicitation is expected to be issued on or around July 13, 2020 for a firm-fixed price contract with a period of performance from October 2020 to May 2021. The contractor will work with Filene Center staff to install and test the new rigging system. The government will evaluate proposals based on technical capability and price.

There is no set-aside designated for this procurement. The project is estimated to cost between $1 million to $5 million. The new rigging system will replace equipment that is over 30 years old used for lifting scenery, lighting, sound, and an orchestra shell for performances at the Filene Center. The contract period of performance is from October 2020 to May 2021. The notice encourages participation from small businesses, veteran-owned small businesses, small disadvantaged businesses, and women-owned small businesses as prime contractors or subcontractors.
