Small Business Size Standard: $45M

Solicitation: The NPS anticipates issuing a request for proposals in September 2024

Bonding: The NPS anticipates bid, performance and payment bonds will be required

Project Description:

The project is located at Yellowstone National Park
The construction magnitude more than $10M.

The surrounding area is urban with limited staging located at the Park.The construction site is 25- 50 of miles from nearest suppliers and lodging facilities.
The Park will remain open during construction, thus contract activities and logistics must be structured and scheduled to minimize visitor impact.
The site requires protective measures to ensure the surrounding area remains undisturbed.
The structure is a historic/natural/cultural resource.
The anticipated period of performance of 808 calendar days including any potential weather shutdown.
There are seasonal/other shutdowns mandated through the construction season.

Project Description: This project will provide for the rehabilitation of the exterior features of 17 historic homes in the Historic Ft. Yellowstone area of Yellowstone National Park.

There are sixteen (16) that are part of the Fort Yellowstone National Historic Landmark and one (1) CCC-era cottage that is part of the Mammoth Hot Springs Historic District.
The building’s exteriors are in various degrees of deterioration which will continue to accelerate over time. Failure to address the deferred maintenance will lead to potential loss of these nationally significant historical structures, which are integral to the story of the creation and development of Yellowstone National Park. Such a loss would have a significant impact on the housing of park staff. The deferred maintenance and component renewal issues associated with the housing units pose a substantial threat to their historic integrity. These issues will be addressed through the execution and completion of the project to ensure these assets are restored and preserved for continued use.
