What this contract is for

Agency: AGRICULTURE, DEPARTMENT OF / ANIMAL AND PLANT HEALTH INSPECTION SERVICE
Location: Edinburg, TX
Set-aside: Total Small Business Set-Aside (FAR 19.5)
NAICS: 238220 - Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors
Scope: Federal

Due to a recent fire in building 6418 at Moore Air Base, Texas, a wet fire suppression system is needed.

Building 6418 was constructed in the early 1980s with no fire suppression initially.

Contractor shall provide design/as-built drawings submittals and installation of a new retrofitted system.

The system shall be a turnkey project encompassing everything needed to have a fully functioning fire suppression system.

Solicitation documents are posted below.

NOTE: For those wishing to attend the site visit, please send names of attendees to james.g.roloff@usda,gov.

A valid drivers license or state ID is required.

Amendment 1 is posted below.

RFI: Does Building 6418 currently have an existing fire alarm panel/system that the sprinkler monitoring would tie into?

If so, could you please provide the panel/system type, make/model, or any available details needed for a sprinkler monitoring quote?

The fire panels are old and obsolete.

They will be replaced at another time, but the new sprinkler system must be able to connect to a fire panel in the future.

No monitoring is needed.

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
Check the set-aside listed above and confirm your business actually qualifies for it before you spend time on a proposal. See our guide to set-asides if the category is unfamiliar.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
