- Description
- W9123625BA005 Norfolk Harbor Southern Branch Maintenance Dredging Hampton Roads, VA This is a pre-solicitation notice. This is NOT a solicitation. Do NOT submit proposals or questions in response to this notice. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Norfolk District (NAO) intends to issue an Invitation for Bid (IFB) acquisition for the Norfolk Harbor Southern Branch Maintenance Dredging in Hampton Roads, Virginia. This procurement will be conducted in accordance with FAR Part 14, Invitation for Bid (IFB). The Government intends to award a firm-fixed-price (FFP) contract. The requirement will be solicited as unrestricted. The applicable NAICS code is 237990, Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction, with a Business Standard of $37M and Product Service Code of Z1KF - Maintenance of Dredging Facilities. In accordance with FAR 36.204(f), the magnitude of construction for this project is between $1,000,000.00 and $5,000,000.00. Project Description: Provide labor, material, and equipment to perform the following: Required work includes maintenance dredging by mechanical dredge in the Southern Branch of the Elizabeth River, part of the Norfolk Harbor Federal Navigation Project. The segments are being dredged to required depth of -41 feet and -36 feet MLLW. One foot of allowable overdepth dredging will be included as part of the contract dredging pay prism. Dredged material generated by the project is expected to be transported by barge or scow and placed directly into the cell(s) at the Craney Island Dredged Material Management Area (CIDMMA). Dredging is estimated to generate approximately 100,000 cubic yards of pay volume. The Contractor shall be responsible for the following: dredging within the designated areas to the proposed required and allowable pay depths, transporting the dredged material to the CIDMMA, discharging the material by direct pump-out method into the designated Government-furnished placement site, properly operating and maintaining the spillways within the CIDMMA, ensuring effluent water leaving the CIDMMA meets State water quality requirements, and communicating with the Port of Hampton Roads maritime users to minimize impacts to vessel traffic, adjacent utilities, and other dredging operations. Period of performance to complete the work is anticipated to be 90 calendar days from Notice to Proceed. *The CIDMMA is a known nesting area for Federal and State protected bird species. The Contractor can expect potential restrictions for use of certain areas within the CIDMMA between May 1 and August 31 due to nesting bird species. The area restrictions are not anticipated to significantly delay work progress. Examples of restrictions that may occur include relocation of discharge inflow point, restricted access in closure areas to vehicles and people, and limited vehicular access to spill boxes. Definitive Responsibility Criteria: This requirement will use Definitive Responsibility Criteria (DRC) which are specific and objective standards established to inform the Contracting Officer. In accordance with FAR 9.104-2. These criteria will be used to assess whether the apparent low bidder can demonstrate the expertise and specialized facilities needed for adequate contract performance. The inability of a contractor otherwise eligible for award to demonstrate minimally acceptable experience as measured by the DRC may result in the Contracting Officer determining the contractor is not responsible. The Definitive Responsibility Criteria will assess the following work items: Dredging: The apparent low bidder shall provide documented contract experience in performing a mechanical dredging job in bay and coastal environments of a minimum of 50,000 cubic yards (CY). Placement at Craney Island Dredged Material Management Area (CIDMMA): The apparent low bidder shall provide documented contract experience of mechanically dredging a minimum of 50,00 CY with the placement of dredged material via hydraulic pump-out from a barge/scow to a confined upland placement area. The IFB and accompanying documents will be issued electronically and will be uploaded to SAM.gov. Prospective bidders are responsible for monitoring SAM.gov to respond to the solicitation and any amendments or other information regarding this acquisition. Prospective bidders are required to be registered in SAM when submitting an offer and shall continue to be registered until time of award, during performance, and through final payment of any contract.
