The scope of the MACC IDIQ may include conventional Design-Build and Design-Bid-Build efforts, often with multiple projects occurring simultaneously. Scope of work will include a broad range of tasks in a variety of trades such as demolition, site work, excavation, cast-in-place concrete, masonry, structural steel, electrical, mechanical (including HVAC), painting, carpentry, roofing, millwork, road repair, and other specialty and general contracting work.

This effort will require contractors with experience and expertise capable of managing multiple task orders simultaneously, which will require construction scheduling, cost estimating, quality control, and coordination of subcontractors in a wide variety of construction trades. The selected contractors will be required to hold all applicable licenses, permits, registrations and/or certificates, and any other items necessary to perform work; and will be responsible for ensuring that any subcontractors hold the same.
