Project Description: This project provides for the exterior renovation of two (2) buildings by removing and replacing exterior window bays which have small glazing (SG) windows, large glazing windows (LG), louvered vents (LV) and doors with glazing (DG). The requirements of this project will be performed on the exterior of two (2) historical Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) buildings within the NSAM installation.

The primary goal and intent of this project is to renovate the fenestrations and to bring the buildings up to current building codes, consistent with local and UFC requirements, while considering ease of maintenance after turnover. These buildings are of historical significance, therefore the major exterior architectural and structural components are required to maintain the same visual aesthetic. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 236220 – “Commercial and Institutional Building Construction,” which has a Small Business Size Standard of $45 million. In accordance with Department of Defense (DoD) Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 236.204, the estimated total contract price range for the base year and option item (combined) is between $10,000,000 and $25,000,000.
