- Description
- This is a Sources Sought announcement for acquisition planning purposes. No formal solicitation for this work exists at this time. All eligible and qualified contractors may submit capability statements for consideration. Capability statements received will be reviewed to determine the quantity and availability of contractors who have the technical level of expertise, administrative, and management capabilities to perform the effort described below. The capability statements received will also be used to determine The Bureau of Reclamation's overall procurement strategy. The Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) is looking for qualified sources with experience to perform an assessment on structural glass (Vitrolite) that was installed in the top-of-dam restroom towers (lobby and restroom) on the walls. The assessment would involve determining the overall condition of each glass panel through gentle pull tests to determine stability of adhering mastic, visual inspection to determine the quantity of glass panels that need repair, and a visual inspection to determine the quantity of glass panels that need complete replacement. The assessment would then need to be summarized in a report to Reclamation to document the current condition and subsequent recommendations. Once the assessment has been complete and report is satisfactory, Reclamation will then proceed with obtaining a qualified contractor to perform the rehabilitation based upon the recommendations in the assessment. The rehabilitation will include resetting glass panels with new mastic, repairing glass panels, and replacing entire sections of glass panels. The contractor will be responsible for providing all materials including Vitrolite panels of Black and Jade coloration. The contractor must be very qualified with demonstrated experience for the past seven (7) years in handling, cutting, and setting structural glass (Vitrolite) along with experience with Technical Preservation Brief 12 entitled, "The Preservation of Historic Pigmented Structural Glass (Vitrolite and Carrara Glass)" by the National Park Service. The structural glass (Vitrolite) is located on the crest of Hoover Dam, a National Historic Landmark as well as on the list of National Historic Places. There is approximately 2,400 sq. ft. of structural glass in the two (2) restroom towers. An estimated amount of three (3) million visitor's walk atop the dam, each year. The restrooms at which the structural glass is located are used heavily. Responsible sources are welcome to submit a capability statement on or before 4:00 P.M., local time, Sunday, August 12, 2012. Received submittals will be reviewed and considered by Reclamation during the solicitation planning process. Please send your capability package by email to Ms. Jennalyn Schilke at JSchilke@usbr.gov. Your package should include the following information: 1. Capability Statement - showing availability of performance and estimated lead time for performing the work 2.
