This federal work order (Work Order #7318448) outlines the requirements for removing and replacing carpet in multiple offices at Building 4305, VMGR252, located at MCAS Cherry Point, North Carolina. The contractor is responsible for pre-installation floor preparation, the removal and off-site disposal of existing carpet, and the installation of approximately 2,504 square feet of new grey carpet tiles and matching cove base. The designated rooms include Rooms 101, 104, 106, 108, 110, 114, and Room 107 (which will transition from tile to carpet). Because the building will remain occupied and operational during construction, the contractor must minimize disruptions, coordinate furniture relocation, and secure necessary approvals for any work outside regular hours (7:00 am to 3:30 pm) or utility interruptions. One designated individual must fulfill the combined roles of Superintendent, Quality Control Manager, and Site Safety and Health Officer. Contractor personnel must strictly adhere to base security, safety, and background check procedures, including enrollment in the Defense Biometrics Identification System (DBIDS) and compliance with strict criminal background restrictions. Performance in any designated SCIF or SAPF areas requires U.S. citizenship and U.S. firm representation. Required deliverables prior to starting work include an Accident Prevention Plan (APP) and Activity Hazard Analyses (AHA), followed by closeout submittals such as spare parts data, a comprehensive warranty management plan, and operation and maintenance manuals.
