The contract, effective from May 1, 2018, through June 30, 2022, requires a qualified contractor to furnish all labor, equipment, and materials to maintain the 12,195 square foot facility.

This procurement is exclusively set aside for small businesses, with mandatory self-certification required through www.smallbusiness.pa.gov prior to the bid opening date.
