Description

SOURCES SOUGHT REFERENCE NUMBER N6247024R0062 Title: MILITARY CONSTRUCTION PROJECT (MILCON) P1062 DESIGN-BID-BUILD, DRY DOCK 3 MODERNIZATION, NORFOLK NAVAL SHIPYARD, PORTSMOUTH, VIRGINIA. THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS FOR INFORMATION AND PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP) AND NO CONTRACT WILL BE AWARDED FROM THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. THERE WILL NOT BE A SOLICITATION, SPECIFICATIONS, OR DRAWINGS AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. This Sources Sought Synopsis is being used as a market research tool to determine the availability and adequacy of potential qualified business sources prior to determining the method of acquisition and issuance of a solicitation. Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Atlantic is seeking qualified Large Businesses and Small Businesses, including U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) certified 8(a), SBA certified HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB), or Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Businesses (EDWOSB). Information received in relation to this notice will be used to assist the Government in developing an overall acquisition strategy. The Government is not obligated to and will not pay for any information received from potential sources as a result of this synopsis. Upon review of industry response to this Sources Sought Synopsis, the Government will determine whether a small business set-aside acquisition in lieu of full and open competition is in the Government�s best interest pursuant to FAR 19.502-2(b). The Government is contemplating award of a MILCON Design-Bid-Build, Dry Dock 3 Modernization Project at Norfolk Naval Station, Portsmouth, Virginia. The Dry Dock 3 modernization project includes the following major components: rebuilding the caisson seats with deep foundations, refurbishing the dock floor and walls, pinning the concrete floor, constructing a wet well and pump house to replace the existing pumpwell, rerouting all utilities into a new utility trench around the dock perimeter, and replacing the dry dock�s surrounding rail systems. 1. Cofferdam : A temporary cofferdam at the entrance to Dry Dock 3 will be constructed to allow the contractor to perform demolition and construction under dry working conditions. The cofferdam consists of a continuous steel pipe pile wall (SPP Wall) driven side-by-side to form a continuous wall. The wall will support approximately 40 feet of water on the riverside. The cofferdam will be constructed approximately 8 feet east of the dry dock entrance (in the river), beyond the existing timber pile supported apron. In the space between the dry dock entrance and the cofferdam, riverbed soils will be dredged and replaced with a tremie concrete slab to seal off upward water flow. In addition, composite sheet pile/concrete closure walls will be constructed on either side of the dock entrance, connecting the SPP Wall to the dock proper and therefore closing off the entrance. 2. Dry Dock:�The floors and walls of the dry dock will be reconstructed by initially removing all the dry dock�s existing granite blocks (ranging from 15 inches thick along the floor and up to 50 inches thick along the altars) and a minimum of 12 inches of existing concrete beneath the granite. The coping/floodwall elevation will be the entrance, will have a tie-down system to resist increased uplift demands due to higher flood events. The dry dock�s walls and floor will be reconstructed with reinforced concrete to provide improved capacity accommodating the increased �superflood� load condition and reestablishing the 2009 FCR design blocking loads. 3. Wet Well:�Selective demolition of the existing below grade Pumpwell is required to accommodate the discharge piping for the Wet Well and Pump House. This includes the removal of the existing ladders, catwalks, platforms, stairs, concrete walls/slabs and fiberglass grating as required by structural work. All companies to include service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSB), veteran-owned small businesses (VOSB), certified HUB-Zone, certified 8(a), and women-owned small businesses (WOSB), small businesses, and large businesses are encouraged to respond. Upon review of industry response to this Sources Sought Notice, the Government will determine whether a set-aside acquisition in lieu of full and open competition is in the Government�s best interest. If you are considering entering into a teaming arrangement, you should provide the name of all teaming partners, the anticipated type of teaming arrangements, address the specific services each member will provide and include applicable professional qualifications and experience for each member, and to what extent your company has worked with the proposed teaming partners in the past. For other than bundled requirements you may be able to joint venture with one or more small businesses and not be considered affiliated as long as each member of the joint venture is small under the applicable NAICS code (13 CFR 121.103(h)(3)). A small business prime will be required to comply with FAR 52.219-14, which limits the percentage paid by small business prime contractors to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. The limitation on subcontracting would apply to the cooperative effort of the joint venture and not each individual member (13 CFR 125.6(i)). Provide evidence that on past contracts of a similar nature that your company (as the prime contractor) was able to comply with the requirement of FAR 52.219-14 and will be able to comply with this requirement under the proposed contract. Submittal Requirements:� It is requested that interested businesses submit to the Contracting Officer a capabilities package, to include the Sources Sought Contractor Information Form, Sources Sought Project Information Form, Sources Sought Project Matrix, and Project Labor Agreement Request for Information provided as attachments to this notice.

Scope: Modernize, repair, and structurally modify a Dry Dock in support of updated submarine dry dock requirements. This project will modernize inner, outer, and superflood caisson seats to remove operational restrictions for docking submarines, stabilize the entrance, and protect against uplift during high water events. This project renovates the entirety of DD3 to include wall and coping reconstruction, crane rails, railroad tracks and infrastructure, dock floor, and cofferdam. Complexity: Experience with construction or repair of Dry Docks.
