CUP Preventative Maintenance and Repair, NIST, Boulder, CO

The U.S. Department of Commerce, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is conducting a Sources‑Sought market survey to identify prime contractors capable of operating and maintaining the Central Utility Plant (CUP) at the NIST Boulder, Colorado campus. The effort includes preventive maintenance of all plant equipment and requires compliance with NIST safety‑plan checklists, OSHA (29 CFR 1910/1926), NFPA standards, and applicable environmental regulations. Contractors must submit a capability statement (≤ 20 pages) that includes company information, SAM UEI/CAGE code, size status, a profile, evidence of relevant experience (up to five recent prime contracts), and documented policies for hazard communication, accident investigation, subcontractor safety management, emergency response, and job‑hazard analysis. The submission must also contain a written safety plan approved by the Government before work begins, and contractors must be prepared to provide additional reports, weekly coordination meetings with the COR/TPOC, and respond to ad‑hoc reporting requests at no extra cost. This Sources‑Sought also serves as a Request for Comments on the draft Performance Work Statement; respondents may submit recommendations for the PWS, which will be considered in its final development. The market research will determine the level of competition and whether any small‑business set‑aside opportunities exist, but it does not constitute a solicitation, commitment, or guarantee of award, and the Government will not answer questions or provide compensation for submitted information.
