Roof Replacement - A/E Construction Support Services

The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service has issued award notice 47PE5426P0002 for architectural and engineering construction support services in Chicago, Illinois. This requirement is classified under NAICS code 541310 for Architectural Services and PSC C1AA for ARCHITECT AND ENGINEERING- CONSTRUCTION: OFFICE BUILDINGS, with no set-aside designated for the action. Wold Architects and Engineers will provide professional services to ensure continuity during the construction phase of a roof replacement project for which the firm previously developed the design specifications.

The agency determined that the technical expertise of the original design firm is essential to address specialized inquiries and perform construction oversight. Engaging an alternative source would result in substantial cost increases due to liability premiums and significant schedule disruptions caused by a new team's lack of familiarity with previous engineering decisions. Expedited roof replacement is required to remediate active water infiltration on the sixth floor of the facility, which has compromised the operational mission of the ATFE and forced the relocation of personnel.

The project was initially scheduled for award in 2025, but potential property disposition necessitated the cancellation of the original solicitation and the subsequent expiration of the design firm's task order in December 2026. Because the original government project personnel are no longer affiliated with the agency, Wold Architects and Engineers is the sole entity possessing the institutional knowledge and background data required to interpret the design package. This award notice was published on May 12, 2026, and contains zero attachments.
