The procurement is 100% set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses, with an estimated construction magnitude between $2,000,000 and $5,000,000. The work involves a phased replacement of switchgear, transformers, and associated systems within Building #64, requiring strict infection control protocols and the use of a specified project management platform.
