- Description
- Solicitation Number: W912DQ-18-SS-1012 Notice Type: Sources Sought For Kansas City Levee Pump Station Construction Contracts For the United States Army Corps of Engineers, Kansas City District This is a SOURCES SOUGHT announcement, issued in accordance with DFARS 236.272 and the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Acquisition Instruction (UAI) 5236.272. No reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this announcement or any follow up information requests. The USACE Kansas City District (NWK) is engaged in on-going efforts to plan a variety of levee infrastructure improvements within the Kansas City area for earliest possible implementation. The Kansas City Levee program emphasizes fast and effective delivery of infrastructure supporting levee improvements. NWK is seeking capable contract support with interest in future delivery of Design-Build efforts to be performed on the pump stations such as but not limited to Argentine, Armourdale, and Central Industrial District pump stations in the Kansas City area. The Design-Build contracts will be to either construct new flood pump stations replacing old facilities, and/or improve/alter existing flood pump stations. Work is integral to urban levee systems near the Kansas and Missouri Rivers and may be expected to include temporary flood protection, continuous operation of existing facilities during construction, and control of surface and ground water. This mission requires an urgent response including an application of diverse resources to ensure all necessary issues are addressed during design, real estate acquisition, and contract procurement. The near-term strategy is to the establish two Prequalified Sources Lists (PSL) to address FY19-FY22 urgent and complex priorities to the USACE Kansas City District designated pump stations along but not limited to the Argentine, Armourdale, and Central Industrial District levee units. One PSL will be for unrestricted business concerns and one list will be small business concerns. The Prequalification Procedures described below reflects the process by which the PSL will be established and admit new contractors over time while this need for prequalification as described exists. The PSL will be available for use while other acquisitions are underway for similar requirements. The PSL will be reviewed annually to ensure a legitimate need exists. Presently, the Government anticipates a target of three contract actions over the next four years. As such, it is likely that a legitimate need will continue for the next 48 months. The PSL will be used as a vehicle to solicit several stand-alone "C" type Design Build construction contracts. After the PSL is established, the Government intends to proceed by issuing solicitations using FAR Part 14 procedures (i.e., Invitation for Bid (IFB)). However, the Government reserves the right to issue solicitations using FAR Part 15 (i.e., Contracting by Negotiation (i.e., Best Value using Lowest Price Technically Acceptable up to and potentially including Trade-Off)) when determined to be in the Government's best interest. The KC Pump Station projects that are likely to be constructed under stand-alone contracts that will be advertised to the firms on the PSL to include replacement and/or modification of existing pump stations (in accordance with EM 1110-2-3102 General Principles of Pumping Station Design and Layout, EM 1110-2-3104 Structural and Architectural Design of Pumping Stations, EM 1110-2-3105 Mechanical and Electrical Design of Pumping Stations, EM 1110-2-1913 Design and Construction of Levees, and EM 1110-2-2902 Conduits Culverts and Pipes), implementation of pressure relief well systems, in-situ pipe rehabilitation, construction of structural and/or earthen cofferdams, and access to construction areas by land and/or barge operations. Projects will be located within the Kansas City District with a particular focus on Pump Station Replacement, Refurbishment, or Upgrades. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for procurements offered to firms on the Prequalified Sources list is NAICS Code 237990 Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction, which has a small business size standard of $36.5M.
