- Description
- This is a project labor agreement survey only. This is not a request for proposal, request for quote, or invitation for bid. There will not be a solicitation, specifications, or drawings available at this time. This is a SPECIAL NOTICE. No proposals are being requested or accepted with this notice. The Corps of Engineers Mobile District is soliciting comments from the construction community addressing the mandated use of Project Labor Agreements (PLA) for large scale construction projects (exceeding $35 million) within the MacDill Air Force Base, FL and the surrounding area. This market survey is being posted for the construction of the KC-46A ADAL Apron & Hydrant Fueling Pits. Description of Work: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Mobile District, anticipates issuing a prospective procurement for constructing a project that includes aircraft apron replacement, associated drainage system, and fuel hydrant system modifications to support the new tanker mission at MacDill AFB in Tampa FL. This mission will include a total of twenty-four (24) KC-46A aircraft, with fifteen (15) new parking and hydrant fueling positions. The current apron parking layout and fuel hydrant system is configured to service twelve (12) KC-135 aircraft and must be expanded to accommodate the new mission. The prospective procurement will involve design-bid-build (DBB) construction for the following: Replace portions of the existing north apron and perimeter taxilane pavement with PCC pavement. Remove existing pavement to full depth including aggregate base courses. Remove and replace large portions of the existing storm drainage system serving the north apron. Limits of concrete apron and taxilane/shoulder expansion will be within the current paved area. Provide two (2) nose gear mooring points at each aircraft parking position. Provide new pavement markings and striping. Reuse of portions of the existing fuel hydrant system piping where possible within the apron area with the remainder being removed from service and abandoned in place by grouting. Adequately sized existing supply and return piping between the fuel farm area and apron will be reused. Increase the pressure capability of the existing five (5) fuel hydrant supply pumps to accommodate the longer hydrant system piping design. Replace existing five (5) 100 HP motors with 125 HP motors and increase the impeller sizes to meet the new pressure requirements. Replace existing filter separators with 275 PSI pressure rated vessels to accommodate the increased pressure requirement. The hydrant system will accommodate fueling of four (4) aircraft simultaneously at 600GPM each. Increase the capacity of the existing Motor Control Center (MCC) from 800 amps to 1000 amps. The primary electrical service feed is adequate. The existing emergency generator is adequately sized for the new loads and will not require replacement. Addition of new apron edge lights along the northern boundary of the taxilane. Addition airfield lighting by increasing the number of fixtures on existing poles and installing one (1) additional pole with new lighting fixtures. Replacement of stormwater drainage system on north apron. Other supporting work necessary to provide a complete and usable facility. A PLA is defined as a pre-hire collective bargaining agreement with one or more labor organizations that establishes the terms and conditions of employment for a specific construction project and is an agreement described in 29 U.S.C. 158(f). 1) Do you have knowledge that a PLA has been used in the local area on projects of this kind? If so, please provide supporting documentation. 2) Are you aware of skilled labor shortages in the area for those crafts that will be needed to complete the referenced project?� If so, please elaborate and provide supporting documentation where possible. 3) Are you aware of time sensitive issues/scheduling requirements that would affect the rate at which the referenced project should be completed?� If so, please elaborate and provide supporting documentation where possible. 4) Identify specific reasons why or how you believe a PLA would advance the Federal Government�s interest in achieving economy and efficiency in Federal procurement. 5) Identify specific reasons why you do not believe a PLA would advance the Federal Government�s interest in achieving economy and efficiency in Federal procurement. 6) Identify any additional information you believe should be considered on the use of a PLA on the referenced project. 7) Identify any additional information you believe should be considered on the non-use of a PLA on the referenced project. Please provide the following information on projects completed in the last 2-5 years for question 1: 1) Project Name and Location 2) Detailed Project Description 3) Initial Cost Estimate vs. Actual Final Cost 4) Was the project completed on time? 5) Number of craft trades present on the project 6) Was a PLA used? 7) Were there any challenges experienced during the project? Interested Offerors shall respond to this Special Notice no later than 1700 CDT, Friday, 3 May 2024. E-mail your response leigh.a.dedrick@usace.army.mil & kyle.m.rodgers@usace.army.mil.
