Basketball court reconstruction

The Department of State has issued a pre-solicitation for the reconstruction of an outdoor basketball half-court at the U.S. Embassy Vienna Marine House in Vienna, Austria. The existing court has reached the end of its life cycle and requires expansion to new dimensions of 13 by 14 meters. The scope of work involves the total demolition and disposal of the current asphalt surface, substructure, lighting, and basketball posts. Contractors will be responsible for soil removal, drainage installation, and the construction of a new sports field utilizing an EPDM rubber surface or an equivalent material. Additional requirements include the installation of an adjustable basketball hoop, two exterior light poles with associated cabling, and the placement of stone slabs around the court perimeter.

This project falls under NAICS 238990, All Other Specialty Trade Contractors, and PSC Z1FC, Maintenance of Troop Housing Facilities. Work is expected to occur over an indicative five-week performance period in the fall of 2026 while the facility remains in operation. Contractors must comply with U.S. Government security regulations, including clearance processes for personnel and materials, and must ensure that construction activities do not disturb residents. The solicitation, identified by number 19AU9026Q0010, has a response deadline of July 29, 2026. Zahid Raja serves as the primary point of contact for this requirement.
