ess contractors capable of performing the construction services for the requirement described herein. If it is determined that adequate competition exists, the GSA may set the requirement aside for competition among the selected group. GSA PBS PQA is seeking all qualified, interested sources (both Large and Small Businesses) to respond to this RFI to provide construction services for a project at the Thurgood Marshall U.S. Courthouse, situated at 40 Foley Square, New York, NY. This project intends to modernize all seventeen (17) elevators located at the Courthouse. This project will also include scope to upgrade mechanical, electrical, fire protection equipment within the elevator machine rooms. The Courthouse will remain fully operational throughout the duration of the project. To ensure minimal disruption to Government operations, the work must be phased to limit interruptions to operations and any disruptive work must be executed after business hours, predominately work taking place within the elevator shaftways. The selected General Contractor (GC) will be required to ensure full compliance with the Government�s requirements for access and security. Additionally, the GC will be required to complete this project in accordance with the construction drawings and specifications that will be issued for this project. Any resultant contract shall adhere to the GSA Public Buildings Services Core Standards, Building Information Modeling (BIM), U.S. Courts Design Guide, and Publication 64. This office anticipates award of a contract for these services in November 2026. Contract duration is estimated to be forty eight (48) months.

The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 236220, Commercial and Institutional Building Construction.
