Description

Summary

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Gaithersburg, Maryland campus is a Research and Development (R&D) facility with 52 buildings located on a 578-acre campus. Most R&D buildings are technically sophisticated laboratory facilities with specialized environmental and utility systems required for research and experimental activities. Laboratory facilities typically utilize specialized controls such as uninterrupted power, compressed gas systems, clean-room technologies, and tight-tolerance air temperature control systems for the conduct of research and experimental studies. Utilities are distributed to the individual buildings by underground pipe and electrical distribution systems from central plant services owned and operated by NIST. Existing buildings range in age with the oldest buildings over 60 years old. The construction on campus is generally steel superstructure with block and brick wall construction. Several facilities have specialized layouts with below grade concrete sub-basements and/or combination window/panelized storefront fa ade. Facility interior and exterior rehabilitation and renovations are continuous as buildings and systems age, or scientific projects require new layouts to accommodate on-going research. Multiple Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) General Construction Contracts will be awarded to a maximum of five (5) offerors. However, the Government reserves the right to make an award to more or less offerors. The IDIQ contract will have a total aggregate value up to $9,800,000.00 for the four (4) year ordering period. The IDIQ contract will be used to execute multiple individual task orders ranging in value from $3,000 up to $3,500,000 of facilities renovation, remodel, modernization, or improvement projects. Task orders will be offered to be competitively bid by the General Construction IDIQ contract holders as per FAR 16.505.

Summary (Newest Update)

Background The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Gaithersburg, Maryland campus is a Research and Development (R&D) facility comprising 52 buildings on a 578-acre campus. The buildings are sophisticated laboratory facilities equipped with specialized environmental and utility systems essential for research and experimental activities. The facilities utilize advanced controls such as uninterrupted power, compressed gas systems, clean-room technologies, and precise air temperature control systems. The existing buildings vary in age, with the oldest over 60 years old, featuring steel superstructures with block and brick wall construction. Continuous rehabilitation and renovations are necessary as the buildings age or as scientific projects require new layouts to support ongoing research. Work Details The contract involves multiple Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) General Construction Contracts awarded to a maximum of five offerors, with a total aggregate value up to $9,800,000 for a four-year ordering period. Task orders will range from $3,000 to $3,500,000 for various renovation, remodel, modernization, or improvement projects. Specific tasks may include: 1) Fire alarm installation and modification; 2) Fire suppression system installation and modification; 3) Electrical equipment and distribution installation and modification; 4) HVAC equipment and ductwork installation and modification; 5) HVAC piping and insulation installation; 6) Plumbing systems installation; 7) Laboratory process gas distribution installation; 8) Construction of laboratory cabinets and countertops; 9) Exterior envelope modifications; 10) Door modifications; 11) Interior changes including flooring installation; 12) Site paving and concrete work; 13) Window maintenance; and other general construction services. Place of Performance NIST Gaithersburg Campus, located at 100 Bureau Dr, Gaithersburg, MD 20899. Incumbent Analysis (see Incumbents section for more detail) This opportunity appears to have a confirmed incumbent base under a prior NIST Gaithersburg General Construction IDIQ, with multiple awardees holding overlapping periods of performance (e.g., HSU Development at $5,154,623; Sandow Construction at $2,132,088; and Matos Builders at $1,674,748 from 09/2022–09/2026). The prior awards are described as General Construction IDIQs and align with the current scope of facilities renovation/modernization task orders covering building systems and improvements such as HVAC, electrical, plumbing, fire protection modifications, and related general construction work. This suggests the current IDIQ may continue the same campus-wide construction support function through competitively bid task orders.
