    RAY Cold Weather Damage J and A Urgent Compelling 20230109.pdf
    The General Services Administration (GSA), Public Building Services (PBS), has issued a justification for a sole-source procurement to Hof Construction Inc. for urgent repairs to the Robert A. Young (RAY) Federal Building in St. Louis, MO. This action, valued at an estimated $1,800,000, is in response to extensive damage caused by an extreme cold weather event on December 22, 2022, leading to widespread flooding and system failures. The statutory authority for this non-competitive procurement is 41 U.S.C.3304(a)(2), implemented under FAR 6.302-2, due to "Unusual and Compelling Urgency." Hof Construction, already on-site as a first responder and familiar with the building's systems, is performing emergency repairs, including addressing fire sprinkler piping, removing damaged finishes, and conducting targeted demolition. The State of Missouri's Executive Order 22-09, declaring a state of emergency due to the severe winter storm, further supports the urgent need for these repairs to secure the facility and prevent further damage. While this initial phase will not be openly competed, GSA plans to conduct market research for any future, non-emergency requirements related to the disaster aftermath.
