NIST Boulder Galvanized Steel Stair Installation – Building 2 Mechanical Room

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is issuing a negotiated solicitation (RFP) for construction, alteration, or repair services. Offers must be submitted as sealed originals with an offer guarantee, and the contractor must furnish any required performance and payment bonds within **one (1) calendar day after award**. The solicitation deadline is **5:00 PM MT, 15 May 2026** (questions due by **3:00 PM MT, 8 May 2026**). Work is to begin on the estimated Notice‑to‑Proceed date of **1 June 2026**, with the performance period to be completed as specified in the contract. Offerors must provide a **Plan of Approach** (max 20 single‑sided pages, 11‑point font, excluding material cut‑sheets) that details the technical methodology, schedule, quality‑control and safety processes, communications diagram, and a list of anticipated subcontractors. A detailed schedule demonstrating the ability to meet the performance period is required and will be evaluated on an acceptable/unacceptable basis. Price evaluation will be based on the lowest total lump‑sum price that is technically acceptable; a detailed cost breakdown is required, but price realism will not be performed. Options, if any, will be added to the base price for award evaluation but are not obligating. All required SF 1442 blocks (14, 15, 17‑20) must be completed and signed by an authorized official.
