The Contractor shall supply all supervision, labor, equipment, and materials to perform all work in strict accordance with the contract drawings, contract specifications, the Statement of Work, and any identified attachments to provide exterior repairs, interior repairs, and a new HVAC and controls system at Building 2008.

Building 2008 is located in the historic district of Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM), WA between the east-west streets of Pendleton Ave and Liggett Ave, and directly off the east side of N 3rd St. It was constructed in the early 1920s and functions as an administrative building for multiple user groups. Building 2008 has an occupied basement, three other occupied floors, and an attic. It no longer serves as a barracks and mostly has an interior function of administrative offices with supporting spaces. The main occupancy is business, and there are a multitude of various end-users in the building.

This project entails significant space and phasing constraints that will require careful coordination and execution.

INDUSTRY DAY INFORMATION: In conjunction with this Sources Sought, the Government will host an Industry Day at Building 2008, JBLM. The event is scheduled for 29 July 2026, starting at 9:00 AM and concluding at approximately 12:00 PM. Personnel shall meet outside the northeast entrance (C Wing) of Building 2008.

The Government is utilizing this Industry Day to engage with interested contractors to achieve the following objectives:

Project Complexity & Constraints: Ensure industry partners fully understand the complexity of the project so they are accurately tracking space and phasing constraints prior to submitting a proposal, as this will be a BVTO procurement. Course of Action (COA) Feedback: Solicit feedback from industry regarding potential phasing and relocation COAs to identify any that may be unfeasible. The potential COAs being considered are: COA 1: Relocate the entire building. COA 2: Relocate by Wing. COA 3: Relocate by Floor. COA 4: Relocate by Organization. Additionally, the Government seeks to understand industry preferences for construction execution under these phasing scenarios. Solicitation Feedback: Obtain feedback on the Government’s approach to utilizing BVTO for this requirement. The Government also seeks to gather contractor concerns regarding space constraints, utilities, building shutoffs, and other logistical challenges to better refine the forthcoming solicitation.

SUBMISSION REQUIREMENT: Interested parties should provide a brief capabilities statement and should include the following:
