Work includes A-E services; site surveys, facility inspections, preparation for and participation in design charrettes; technical review, preparation of plans, specifications, design analysis, design build RFPs, programming studies/DD Form 1391 development, construction support services and cost estimates for solicitation of construction for repair/renovation, new construction projects, or engineering studies. Firms must have primary capability in POL design and engineering and should be aware of or capable of acquiring knowledge of design requirements and procedures set forth by the DEFENSE LOGISTICS AGENCY – DEFENSE ENERGY SUPPORT CENTER (DESC) SUSTAINMENT, RESTORATION AND MODERNIZATION (SRM) PROGRAM. Renovations might include, fire protection upgrades (AFFF), fuel containment, transport, delivery, storage, and dispensing systems as well as conversion of fuel type. Services incidental to the overall project may also require API 653 tank inspection, piping system evaluation in accordance with API 570, pipe stress analysis, hydraulic and dynamic transient surge analysis, pressure testing, and internal pipeline inspection services. Projects may include but not be limited to, above and below ground storage tanks, hydrant systems, fuel distribution pump houses, truck fill stands, piping, valves, trenching, primary and secondary spill containment, SCADA systems, and pipeline/tank leak detection systems. Design of utilidors, fire detection and fire protection systems, mechanical and electrical systems, and communication systems may be required but are incidental to POL design. Project sites may be local as well as remote. The AE and their subcontractors must have experience in cold regions design. The AE may be required to participate in programming, value engineering and design charrettes and project review conferences. The Government may require that designs be in metric and/or english systems of units. Products shall be produced to Corps of Engineers guidelines and specific formats as set forth by task order. The firm must demonstrate the ability to: Provide drawings in AutoCAD (version as required by the project); use the latest version of MCACES (cost estimating software furnished by the Government); provide a cost estimate in work breakdown structure (WBS) using MII software; provide draft DD Form 1354, Transfer and Acceptance of Military Real Property, for design task orders provide electronic bid set (EBS) documents; and use SPECSINTACT for all projects unless otherwise directed in the task order.

Systems information required for Dr. Checks includes a web browser program, either Internet Explorer (Microsoft) or Navigator (Netscape) versions 4 .0 or later; the web site is http://www.buildersnet.org/drchecks/ (3) LOCATION: Primarily various locations in Alaska, but may be utilized outside Alaska on an exception basis. Facilities will generally be located in arctic, subarctic, and cold region environments. (4) SELECTION CRITERIA: The following selection criteria are listed in the descending order of importance. Criteria (A)-(G) below are primary selection criterion. Criteria (H)-(I) below are secondary and will only be used as “tie breakers” among technically equal firms. Responding firms MUST address each discipline, clearly indicate which shall be subcontracted, and provide a separate SF330 (Part II) (6/2004 edition) for each subcontractor. (A) Minimum requirements for professional personnel in the following disciplines: Two (2) registered mechanical engineers, each with at least ten (10) years design experience in POL systems, one of these engineers with 5 years Department of Defense (DoD) POL experience.

(B) Specialized experience and technical competence in: Design of new DoD POL related facilities in cold regions. Cold regions design is not considered to be a separate discipline that can be subcontracted. Rather, knowledge and experience in the design, construction and operation of facilities in arctic, subarctic, and cold region environments must be integral to all design disciplines. Design of DoD POL related facility renovations, Experience in API piping and tank inspections Construction phase services Preparing Design Build RFPs Design charrettes Studies and analyses of DoD POL related existing facilities.
