GSA's Public Buildings Service is doing market research (sources sought) for elevator maintenance at three federal sites in Cincinnati, Ohio: the Potter Stewart U.S. Courthouse, the John Weld Peck Federal Building and the FDA National Forensic Chemistry Center. It is not a solicitation, and a later solicitation may follow. Interested firms send a capability statement by email.
Watch out for
- Not a solicitation. Responding does not put you in line for an award; a separate solicitation may follow and you would need to respond to it too.
THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION ANNOUNCEMENT. THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT ANNOUNCEMENT ONLY.
- Conflicting response date. The notice text gives a 2024 date while SAM.gov lists 2027, so confirm the real deadline with the contact before relying on either.
no later than Monday, September 14, 2024 by 9:00 AM EDT
- Elevator maintenance experience needed. Respondents must give three references for similar elevator maintenance work, so firms without that track record may be unable to show capability.
