This is a SOURCES SOUGHT / MARKET RESEARCH synopsis to request information for Government planning purposes only. Responses will assist the Government in planning its acquisition strategy for a potential future acquisition. The Government is not committed to issue a solicitation or award a contract because of this announcement. NAVFAC SOUTHWEST – FEAD Twentynine Palms is seeking qualified and capable potential vendors. Since this is a sources-sought synopsis and not a solicitation for receipt of proposals or quotations, the Government does not encourage questions concerning this market research. This request for information (RFI) is for the repair of concrete decking at the MCAGCC Twentynine Plams training tank swimming pool. The training tank concrete deck is in a failing state with numerous cracks, disintegration of concrete topcoat layer, and rust discoloration causing safety concerns and unsightly conditions. The intent of the government is to identify a decking solution that repairs cracks and resolves existing tripping and safety hazards with a life expectancy of 5 years. There are known leaks in the training tank and the government intends to perform a comprehensive repair project in the next 5 years to resolve suspected leak issues. However, an interim solution to mitigate the deteriorating pool deck must be identified in order to allow continued use of the training tank until a more comprehensive project is approved. The existing conditions of the concrete pool deck includes significant cracking, spalling, exposed rebar, and failure of the adhered cementitious topcoat layer. The sought solution includes a product and installation method that will provide a durable, non-skid surface that is resistant to water, pool chemicals, and extreme outdoor conditions typical of the Mojave Desert. The solution also needs to accommodate suspected hydrostatic pressure from underneath the surface. The Government is seeking to gain knowledge of interest, capabilities, and qualifications of various members of the community, to include both small and large businesses. The Contractors must be knowledgeable of applied flooring solutions for outdoor applications.
