HHS OIG Headquarters Relocation   2

Background
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Inspector General (OIG) is undertaking a headquarters relocation project. The goal of this contract is to ensure the successful integration of existing furniture systems with new components, which requires specialized knowledge and proprietary information.

Work Details
The work involves the relocation of the OIG headquarters, specifically focusing on the integration of a proprietary furniture system originally installed by Price Modern in 2019. Price Modern is uniquely qualified to provide the necessary products and services due to their exclusive access to the original Bill of Materials, configuration specifications, and installation documentation.

The rationale for limiting the source to Price Modern includes:
- Only one source is capable of providing the required products and services at the necessary quality level due to their unique expertise.
- Alternate vendors lack access to historical configuration data, which would necessitate extensive re-engineering efforts, increasing costs and risks associated with installation errors.
- Engaging another vendor would result in delays, additional labor costs, and jeopardize OIG’s ability to meet mandated relocation timelines.

Period of Performance
The contract will be performed over a timeframe that aligns with the mandated relocation schedule.

Place of Performance
The work will be performed at the FCC Building, where the OIG headquarters is currently located.

Bidder Requirements
Only Price Modern can bid on this contract due to their exclusive possession of essential configuration data and installation standards required for accurate integration of existing systems.
