The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Sacramento District (SPK) anticipates a solicitation for design-build (DB) construction services to design and install an air conditioning system at the Presidio of Monterey (POM) Ord Military Community (OMC) Child Development Center (CDC), in Seaside, California. The CDC (building 7693) is an existing 23,706 square-foot one-story facility that currently contains a heating system but no air conditioning system. If solicited, the existing heating system will be required to remain in place and functional until the new air conditioning system (or combined air conditioning and heating system) is installed, tested, and operational. As the CDC is heavily used and has little to no swing space, the Government anticipates significant construction phasing will be required, including flexible and fastidious attention to coordinated phasing stages, noise control, and dust control. The Government anticipates Offerors will be required to hold an active heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) license from the State of California to perform on any resulting contract. The Government estimates the anticipated requirement can be completed within three-hundred-eighty-eight (388) calendar days after Notice to Proceed (NTP), which includes completion of design within sixty (60) calendar days and completion of construction within one-hundred-twenty (120) calendar days after approval of design and submittals; however, actual construction will not be allowed to start in the facility until Fall 2024. The awarded PoP may be adjusted based on anticipated material lead times. In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 36.204(f) the Government currently estimates the magnitude of construction for this project to be between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000 The Government intends to solicit a Request for Proposals (RFP) that will result in award of a firm-fixed-price contract. The solicitation is anticipated to be issued using North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code 238220, Plumbing, Heating, and Air Conditioning Contractors. The small business size standard for this NAICS, as established by the United States Small Business Administration, is $19,000,000.00 annual revenue. The Product Service Code is anticipated to be Z2CZ, Repair or Alteration of Other Educational Buildings. The solicitation is anticipated to be issued as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) Set-Aside through the Procurement Integrated Enterprise Environment (PIEE - https://piee.eb.mil) and Governmentwide Point of Entry, the System for Award Management (SAM - www.SAM.gov) on or about 18 July 2023 with proposals tentatively due 28 August 2023.
