This solicitation has been approved by the NAVFAC Office of Small Business Programs and Small Business Administration Procurement Center Representative as small business set-aside. The appropriate Northern American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 236220 – Commercial and Institutional Building Construction and the Small Business Size Standard is $45,000,000. This will be a source selection procurement requiring both non-price (technical and past performance) and price proposals, and will utilize the best value tradeoff continuum at FAR 15.101-1. The basis for evaluation and evaluation factors for award will be included in the solicitation. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Construction projects to be performed under this MACC will require the ability to manage multiple task orders concurrently across the Hampton Roads AO. This MACC will encompass a wide range of design-build and design-bid-build projects that include, but are not limited to, new construction, demolition, repair, alteration, and renovation of buildings, systems and infrastructure and may include site, civil, architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, fire protection, cyber security and communication systems.

The Government intends to award no more than eight (8) contracts resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Offerors whose proposals represent the best value after evaluation in accordance with the factors in the solicitation. This solicitation will result in a competitively negotiated firm fixed-price IDIQ MACC. The aggregate value of all contracts awarded from any resultant solicitation is anticipated to be $575,000,000 over the base year and four option periods combined, not to exceed 60 months. Task orders will be firm fixed-priced, normally in the range of $150,000 to $15,000,000 per order. However, task orders under or over these amounts may be considered if deemed to be in the Government’s best interest and approved by the Contracting Officer. The Government guarantees an award of $5,000 to each successful Offeror over the full term of the contract, including option years. The initial project (“seed project”) that will be awarded as the first task order concurrently with the basic contract is Project P-702, Submarine Logistics and Support Facilities, Naval Station Norfolk, Norfolk Virginia.
