THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT ANNOUNCEMENT ONLY.  The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Alaska District is conducting market research to facilitate a determination of acquisition strategy for an Integrated Design and Construction (IDaC) project for the Maintenance Support Facility (MSF) at Fort Greely, Alaska.  The determination of acquisition strategy for this acquisition lies solely with the Government and will be based on this market research and information available to the Government from other sources. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Alaska District, is conducting this market research to identify businesses which have the capability to perform the following work:

The selected Contractor is required to have sufficient staff, flexibility, and capability to be available on an as-needed basis. Interested firms must be able to provide all management, tools, supplies, parts, materials, equipment, transportation, and trained labor necessary to construct a ~60,000 square foot Maintenance Support Facility (MSF), located on the Missile Defense Complex, to provide warehouse, maintenance shops, management support areas, building maintenance/support areas (janitorial, etc.), and vehicle storage space to provide recurring maintenance for the weapon system and be postured to quickly respond to mission essential weapons system failures. The facility will include typical commercial building design to include electrical medium voltage and low voltage distribution, HVAC and ventilation systems, lightning protection and equipment grounding, fire protection (alarm, reporting and suppression), potable and fire water, storm drainage, sanitary sewer and inside plant and outside plant communications systems.

The proposed contract type for construction is Integrated Design and Construction (IDaC). The proposed contract type will permit award of the construction contract early on in the project’s development through a competitive firm-fixed-price process. This early construction Contractor involvement enables the selected construction Contractor to provide constructability and cost input to the Designer of Record as the design progresses, who is simultaneously performing under a contract separately awarded pursuant to Brooks Act procedures. The IDaC contract includes pre-construction phase consultation services at a firm-fixed-price, which includes an option for the construction phase at a firm-fixed-price with a maximum ceiling price, initial target cost, and target profit.

The estimated dollar magnitude of this project is anticipated between $70,000,000 to $75,000,000. The performance period for pre-construction services will be approximately 400 calendar days; the performance period for the construction option will be approximately 540 calendar days.
