- This is not a Request for Quote (RFQ) or Request for Proposal (RFP). This notice does not constitute a commitment by the Government to issue an RFQ, RFP, contract or task order.

This Sources Sought Notice is being issued by the General Services Administration for Design/Build services for the repair and alteration project for the modernization of the F.

An example of the sleek 1930's Modernistic style, the building is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The project will include replacing aging building systems and significant interior improvements needed for building safety and efficiency. This would be considered a highly complex project, including the build-out of an entire new mechanical/HVAC plant, main electrical switchgear room, and Main Distribution Frame (MDF) room/IT-Telecom Demarcation Room, along with extensive mechanical and electrical upgrades throughout each floor, all in a mostly occupied building.
