The USDA's Agricultural Research Service (ARS) seeks quotes for mold remediation services in its Miami building (BLDG 89), primarily affected by water damage and mold growth. The primary objective is to conduct a comprehensive assessment and subsequent remediation to address fungal contamination.
The scope of work involves detailed inspections, mold testing, and a meticulous remediation plan. Licensed assessors will employ advanced technology for thorough inspections and mold sampling, focusing on areas such as offices, hallways, and AC units. The samples will undergo laboratory analysis to identify mold types, with particular interest in Alternaria, Cladosporium, and Stachybotrys. Remediation efforts will involve containment, material removal, and sanitization, based on the assessment findings.
The USDA ARS aims to award a Firm Fixed Price contract to a licensed mold remediation company. The contractor must supply all necessary materials and labor, adhere to bio-based product requirements, and coordinate with ARS lab personnel. The project is scheduled to span 30 days, during standard weekday hours.
Eligible applicants should be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and comply with numerous federal regulations and representations, including tax compliance and restrictions on subcontracting. Offerors are evaluated based on technical specifications, past performance, price, and compliance with certifications. Emphasis is placed on their expertise and ability to implement recommended mold remediation strategies swiftly.
Interested parties should submit their quotes, including technical specifications and pricing, by the deadline of July 30, 2024, 4:00 pm CST. A site visit is scheduled for July 24, 2024, and questions regarding the solicitation must be submitted by July 26, 2024, 2:00 pm CST.
