The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this effort is 561210 Facilities Support Services (small business size standard is $47M).Description of Services, Background, and Objective: FRAME is a non–personal services contract that provides maintenance, repair, modification, and modernization for over 130 facilities, property, and equipment (P&E) supporting the nation`s space mission, defense, and test activities at VSFB and its associated geographically–separated locations.The scope of work involves facility infrastructure and systems (including water and gas mains, roads, generators, power distribution, HVAC, waste systems, and roofing) alongside the execution of distinct sustainment projects and standby support for urgent repairs during select launch operations to ensure maximum operational readiness.
