Repair of Hoop Buildings

The USDA National Centers for Animal Health (NCAH) in Ames, IA requires a contractor to provide all labor and materials to repair and inspect the six “Hoop” buildings (H1‑H6) damaged by windstorms. Primary tasks include removal and disposal of the east‑end cover on Building H1 and, on Building H5, installation of a new top cover that matches the original 40 × 64 ft Type 14 FR white fabric (including PVC, belting, pull pipes, and winch straps), verification of dimensions, and a full inspection of building straps, cables, winches, and bolts with a written report of any additional repairs, budget estimates, and priorities. All work must be performed during regular site hours (7:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m., Monday‑Friday, excluding Federal holidays); any work outside these hours requires prior COR approval at least five calendar days in advance. Contract performance milestones are tightly defined: product submittals and the overall submittal schedule must be submitted within ten (10) business days of award; bi‑weekly status reports (including an updated project schedule) are due every Friday by 3:00 p.m. CST; substantial completion of all SOW tasks is required no later than 350 business days after award, with the final punch‑list items completed by day 360. The contractor must also submit operation and maintenance data and warranty documentation. Compliance with prevailing‑wage requirements is mandatory—Executive Order 13658 sets a minimum wage of $13.30 per hour for 2025 (or the higher prevailing rate per the applicable wage determination). Additional security protocols will be imposed if a Homeland Security alert is issued, and the amendment to this solicitation changes the quote submission deadline to 8:30 a.m. CT on May 20.
