This federal solicitation amendment (Standard Form 30) for solicitation number 70Z02926QGALV0034, issued by the U.S. Coast Guard Regional Support Team (RST-08) in New Orleans, extends the close date from July 3, 2026, to August 3, 2026. The modification updates the physical characteristics and discloses the estimated construction project magnitude as falling between $25,000 and $100,000. Additionally, it updates contact details for coordinating site visits with Ace Hardy to facilitate necessary pre-bid inspections. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.

This federal task order outlines the Performance Work Statement (PWS) for the exterior rehabilitation of the Aids to Navigation Team (ANT) building at Coast Guard Station Port O’Connor, Texas. The primary objective is to remove and replace the building's deteriorated corrugated siding, soffits, and gutters, which are currently exhibiting severe corrosion and structural holes. The selected contractor must provide all necessary tools, labor, equipment, and materials to complete the project. Specific requirements include replacing the existing siding and gutters with comparable 24-gauge corrugated steel of a similar tan color, suitable for a marine environment. Contractors are responsible for daily site cleanups, including magnetic sweeps to prevent vehicle damage, and must ensure all debris is disposed of in accordance with environmental regulations. Key administrative and operational parameters include: - **Period of Performance:** 30 working days from the date of award. - **Hours of Operation:** Monday through Friday, 0730 to 1530 EST. - **Personnel Requirements:** A designated Project Manager (Key Personnel) must be available for technical resolution. All personnel must be U.S. citizens and will require escorts while on-site. - **Warranty:** A one-year warranty on all products and services is required upon project completion. The Coast Guard will provide basic utility connections (water and electricity), but the contractor remains fully responsible for the overall safety, management, and final quality control of the worksite.

This document outlines the performance of work requirements for a federal construction contract. Under FAR clause 52.236-1 and VAAR clause 852.236-72, the prime contractor must self-perform at least 25% of the total contract work on-site using their own organization. Compliance is calculated based on the labor of on-site workers, mechanics, and superintendents on the contractor's direct payroll, including the cost of materials and equipment they install; administrative, executive, and clerical staff are excluded. Contractors must submit a statement specifying which portions of the work they will self-perform alongside their schedule of costs, which cannot be altered without Contracting Officer approval. Failure to meet this 25% self-performance threshold will result in the Contracting Officer withholding a 15% retention fee on unauthorized subcontracted work. These requirements may only be reduced through a supplemental agreement if deemed advantageous to the government.
