GAOA Powell Duplex Improvements, Nez Perce-Clearwater National Forest

Background
The GAOA Powell Duplex Improvements project is issued by the Nez Perce-Clearwater National Forest, which aims to enhance family housing for staff at the Powell Ranger Station. The duplex, built in 1994, has suffered significant water damage due to intrusion, necessitating extensive repairs. This solicitation is a Request for Quotation (RFQ) under solicitation number 1240LU26Q0025, set aside for small business concerns.

Work Details
The project involves removing and replacing the existing roofs, water-damaged Structurally Insulated Panels (SIPs), and some structural members in the roof and walls of the duplex. The contractor must provide all necessary materials and labor to perform the work professionally and in accordance with specifications and manufacturer installation instructions. Demolished materials must be disposed of off Forest Service lands per state and federal laws.

The duplex consists of two units with three bedrooms each, requiring careful management to prevent further water intrusion during construction. All roofing materials must come from the same manufacturer for consistency, and final cleanup is considered incidental to the work.

Period of Performance
The estimated period of performance begins on May 18, 2026, with completion expected by May 1, 2027.

Place of Performance
The construction will take place at the Powell Ranger Station located approximately 95 miles northeast of Kamiah, Idaho.
