- Description
- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New England District is issuing this Sources Sought Announcement to determine interest, availability and capability of 8(a), HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned and Small Business concerns for a construction project for a new Hanscom Primary School, Hanscom Air Force Base, Bedford, Massachusetts. The NAICS code for the work described below is 236220 with a project cost between $20M and $40M range. Work will begin around Spring 2016 and will extend over a 30 month period. The location of services to be performed under this contract shall be at Hanscom Air Force Base, Bedford, Massachusetts. The project will consist of the demolition of the existing primary school and associated building(s), the construction of a new primary school, and associated site work. The new primary building will be constructed as an addition to a newly constructed middle school building. The size of this multi story structure will be approximately 80,000 sf. The project will utilize clear span or similar construction methods to allow easier reconfiguration to meet future educational needs. Near term flexibility and adaptability will be accommodated through the use of fully integrated acoustical-rated, operable wall partitions which contribute to the engineered acoustical performance of the building. The project will include 21st Century School concepts such as: learning neighborhoods, central hubs surrounded by learning studios, flex labs, information center annex, gymnasium, food service area, supply areas, specialist rooms, art room, music room, commons area for dining and social networking, therapy rooms, teacher work rooms, counseling areas, storage, administrative offices and other required areas for a fully functioning facility. The project also includes related infrastructure such as: parking areas, mechanical rooms, delivery areas, covered walkways, playgrounds and site improvements such as signage, fencing, paving, landscaping, exterior lighting and utilities. The facility will require enhanced commissioning upon completion to validate energy performance and must obtain LEED Silver certification. Phased construction will be required to accommodate this project without interrupting school operations. Temporary school facilities will be part of this project, as well as deconstructing and restoring the temporary site after the primary school construction has been completed. Because this project occurs on an active installation at an active school campus, there will be significant equipment and personnel management requirements to minimize impacts to the surrounding school facilities. The contractor will also have a limited work area with limited access and all contractor personnel shall be screened for security purposes. Please provide up to three examples of projects substantially completed within the last ten years in which you have demonstrated the following construction capability and identify your role in the project(s): Experience with K-12 new educational facilities construction of at least 60,000 sf.
