- Description
- THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) AND SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE (SSN) for Construction Services for the Hardening Project at the United States Courthouse and Federal Building in Milwaukee, WI. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP). The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), Public Buildings Service (PBS), Acquisition Project Delivery � Capital Construction Division (PQA), is conducting market research: (1) To determine if there are adequate Small Business, HUBZone small business, Women-Owned small business, or Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned small business contractors capable of performing the construction services for the requirement described herein. If it is determined that adequate competition exists, the GSA may set the requirement aside for competition among the selected group. GSA PBS PQA is seeking all qualified, interested sources (both Large and Small Businesses) to respond to this RFI/SSN. This will be a design-bid-build project for construction services for the Hardening Project at the U.S. Courthouse and Federal Building, located at 517 East Wisconsin Ave, Milwaukee, WI. 53202. The building was constructed in 1899 and is a Milwaukee City Landmark and listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The project scope includes reconstruction of replacement doors and louvers, the installation of forced entry resistant doors, frames, door hardware, and louvers in historically significant areas with new units consistent with the remaining historic fabric. It also includes alteration zones involving the installation of compression framing window systems with forced entry resistant security features, leaving original fabric untouched where possible. These measures are designed to enhance security against forced entry and are integral to the Courthouse Hardening Program, which aims to restrict unauthorized access by individuals and groups seeking to disrupt the judicial process. Offerors will be evaluated, among other factors, on demonstrated experience with projects of similar scope and complexity involving nationally designated historic structures. Any resultant contract shall adhere to the GSA PBS Core Buildings Standards, the U.S. Courthouse - Milwaukee Building Design Standards, and all applicable codes identified in the design documents. This office anticipates award of a contract for these services in the Fall of 2026. Contract duration is estimated to be 18 months with an estimated magnitude of construction between $5,000,000 and $15,000,000.
