It is anticipated that this Solicitation will be published in the System for Award Management (SAM) in the spring of 2024. The A-E will be required to perform planning efforts to support the LCAAP program and provide either full design and specifications or gather requirements to prepare a Design-Build RFP for the facility(ies) based upon the final product line design requirements. Product lines are in various stages of development and the successful A-E will provide engineering support and work interactively with the government/industry LCAAP development team during the latter stages of the various product line development with respect to how those requirements decisions impact final facilities, and infrastructure/utility needs. Services include planning efforts, Request for Proposal (RFP) preparations, cost estimating, sustainable design, technical integration, commissioning, systems integration, and construction phase services will also be required. The A-E will be required to provide a design that meets all DoD and Army explosives safety standards, including all protective construction requirements of UFC 3-340-02 and all necessary personnel protection as required by DoD 6055.09- M. The A-E will be required to obtain appropriate approvals through U.S. Army Technical Center for Explosives Safety (USATECS) and Department of Defence Explosive Safety Board (DDESB). The A-E will also be required to incorporate design features that allow for rapid, flexible, high-quality construction. Task Orders issued to support other LCAAP mission areas will include a wide variety of design, planning, studies and other efforts These projects will include, but not be limited to: Facility planning, pre-design services, design of new facilities (office buildings, ammunition storage bunkers, warehouses, etc.), Design-Build and Design-Bid-Build RFP preparation, existing conditions studies, planning studies, life cycle cost analysis, roof repair/replacement designs, building demolition, site work, facility repair or renovation, mechanical and electrical system design/upgrades. Assignments will include preparation of plans and specifications, cost estimating, value engineering screenings and studies, field inspections, verification of existing conditions, pilot studies, surveying and mapping, geotechnical investigations, commissioning, construction-phase services (engineering design during construction, checking design drawings, submittal reviews), environmental assessments, archaeological investigations, drainage/flood studies, evaluations of green technologies and sustainability/ energy conservation measures. Automated Production Equipment Design Services Task Orders issued under this SATOC will support the LCAAP requirements. Task Orders may include, but not be limited to design of various small caliber General Purpose and Special Purpose ammunition production lines. Production facilities will contain primary production areas including, but not necessarily limited to: casing, bullet production, primer/propellant loading, and high speed assembly. Support areas include parts maintenance workshops, chemistry lab, raw materials receiving and storage, product packaging, product storage and shipping, offices, locker rooms, meeting/break rooms, and cafeteria. Some task orders would receive, process, and store classified information at the SECRET level.� For those task orders, A-E firms are required to employ staff with a SECRET clearance or capable of obtaining a SECRET clearance, qualified to perform the anticipated project work, and must have access to a Defense Security System (DSS) certified computer system by the time the Task Order is awarded.�� At the time of award, the selected A-E must also have a SECRET Facility Clearance.
