NO SOLICITATION IS AVAILABLE; requests for a solicitation and/or solicitation status will go unanswered. No award will be made from this Notice. Responses will be used to determine potential acquisition strategies, understand current market capabilities, and to gain knowledge of potential sources. GENERAL SCOPE : The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Sacramento District (SPK), anticipates a potential requirement for design-bid-build construction services to build a 15,000 gallon per minute (GPM) pump station in Hamilton City, California. The project is located at latitude 39.7435°N and longitude 121.9945°W, approximately 300 lineal feet landside from the levee toe. The project is anticipated to include a new above ground drainage pump station (platform with a vertical 30-inch pump column and electrical box) supported by deep foundations elements; pedestrian walkway, connected to the pump station, supported by shallow foundations at the ramp landing location; and, a horizontal 30-inch welded steel pipe (connected to the pump column) which will be supported by two deep foundation elements prior to being constructed underground (via open trench construction) about 50 feet north of the pump column. The horizontal 30-inch steel pipe will connect to an existing 30-inch polyethylene pipe. The project is anticipated to include stripping existing vegetation to construct the pump station on the end of the drainage ditch. The project is also anticipated to require morning safety meetings, weekly status and progress meetings, and compliance with the E-Verify program employment eligibility requirements (http://www.uscis.gov/e-verify). The Government estimates all construction activities can be completed within 300 calendar days of contract Notice to Proceed, or approximately September 2023. The project does not require any work to be done on the levee, allowing construction during flood season. The potential requirement may result in a solicitation issued approximately mid-June to mid-July 2022. Please do not request status of the solicitation; all information relative to this potential requirement will be posted publicly to SAM.gov. If solicited, the Government intends to award the contemplated requirement as a firm-fixed-price contract by approximately mid-August to mid-September 2022. In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 36.204(e), the Government currently estimates the magnitude of construction for this project to be between $500,000 and $1,000,000. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for the potential requirement is anticipated to be 237110, Water and Sewer Line and Related Structures Construction . The small business size standard for this NAICS, as established by the U.S. Small Business Administration, is $39.5 million annual revenue. The Product Service Code for the potential requirement is anticipated to be Y1NE, Construction of Water Supply Facilities. If there is a reasonable expectation that at least two (2) responsible small business concerns under this NAICS can provide the anticipated services at fair market prices, the Contracting Officer is required to set the acquisition aside for small business concerns. If competition is set-aside for small businesses, Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.219-14, Limitations on Subcontracting, requires that general construction small business Contractors self-perform at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the cost of the contract, not including the cost of materials. If no set aside is made, the requirement is competed with full and open competition, and the awarded Contractor is not a small business, the Contractor is required to perform the percent of work identified in the solicitation under FAR 52.236-1, Performance of Work by the Contractor. Contractors with the skill, capabilities, workload capacity, and ability to obtain bonding to complete the project described above (either through self-performance and/or Subcontractor management) are invited to provide capability statements to the point of contact listed below.
