This is a total small-business set-aside reserved for Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB) or Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Businesses (EDWOSB) — only firms meeting this designation may bid.

Prevailing wage applies per New York Department of Labor rates, with scales varying by county and trade classification for carpenters, electricians, laborers, and equipment operators. All work must be completed by November 30, 2026. The contract is firm fixed-price, with pricing submitted separately for each of the five line-item facility jobs. The solicitation requires compliance with 2019 National Defense Authorization Act prohibitions on telecommunications and security equipment sourced from Huawei, ZTE, Hikvision, or Dahua. Contractors must provide insurance bonds if required by the property owner. Payment is released within 30 days of completion and inspection. The Army Corps of Engineers at 26 Federal Plaza, New York, NY, administers the contract; Jane Arnold is the designated point of contact for scheduling and inspection.
