- Description
- The New York District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) intends to issue a solicitation package seeking to award a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract to Repair & HEMP Shield Building 4016 (J-Plant) at Thule AB, Greenland.� This will be a competitive, 1-Step Best Value Trade-Off Solicitation.� General Conditions at Thule Air Base: The location of Thule Air Base limits exterior work to the months of June through September, although work is sometimes possible in May and/or October. Additionally, Thule's location demands that all supplies/personnel must be shipped /transported in/out via air/sealift. Thule Air Base is not a commercial air/seaport and there is no other access. Shipping schedules are dictated by Defense contracts, and materials and labor are not available locally. The region is glaciated, and the existing soil is generally permafrost, which exists from 1 to 6 feet below the surface to a measured depth of 1,600 feet. Winter temperatures average between 20 -30 degrees F below zero while average summer temperatures are between 40-50 degrees F above zero. One annual military cargo sealift departs from Norfolk, Virginia to Thule AB, on or about 1 July. There are two sealifts that leave from Copenhagen, Denmark to Thule AB, one in July & one in August. Airlifting any materials or equipment via military aircraft is very expensive and only normally allowed on an emergency-need basis. SUMMARY OF WORK The work includes replacement of the existing diesel generators and cooling system, replacement of the medium voltage (MV) switchgear, replacement of the existing insulated roof and wall panels, repair of the building foundation and structure, replacement of the building fire detection and fire suppression systems, and renovation of the facility interior. HEMP improvements to the facility to provide shielding of the facility's components will be accomplished concurrently. Temporary back-up power generation will also need to be provided during construction activities. The work is estimated to cost between $100,000,000 and $250,000,000. �It is the intention of the Government to award 1st Quarter of Fiscal Year 2024 and the proposed work is anticipated to take place over the next 4 years. Liquidated Damages of approximately $14,371.00 per calendar day of delay will be assessed to the contractor until all work under the contract is accepted as complete. This procurement is restricted to Danish and Greenlandic Firms only.
