SOURCES SOUGHT TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION FOR YALE BRAND DOOR LOCKS – RENOVATE SIJAN HALL – PHASE ONE AT U.S. AIR FORCE ACADEMY, COLORADO Notice ID: W9128F25SM022 INTRODUCTION The US Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District is issuing this Sources Sought synopsis as a means of conducting market research to identify potential sources having an interest and industry technologies available to support/provide Door Locks in the construction of the Renovate Sijan Hall – Phase One at the U.S. Air Force Academy, Colorado. The result of this market research will contribute to determining the method of procurement. Based on the responses to this Sources Sought notice/market research, this requirement may include specifications regarding the generators, or, if justified by market research, a brand name Justification and Approval. USACE intends to issue one (1) design-bid-build construction contract. The solicitation is anticipated to be full and open competition. The magnitude of construction is expected to range between $100,000,000 and $250,000,000. The estimated value of door locks for this project is $60,000 to $90,000. This Sources Sought is specific to the door locks required for this project. DISCLAIMER THIS SOURCES SOUGHT IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP) TO BE SUBMITTED. IT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A SOLICITATION AND SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT. RESPONSES IN ANY FORM ARE NOT OFFERS AND THE GOVERNMENT IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO AWARD A CONTRACT AS A RESULT OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. NO FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE TO PAY FOR PREPARATION OF RESPONSES TO THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. ANY INFORMATION SUBMITTED BY RESPONDENTS TO THIS TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION IS STRICTLY VOLUNTARY. PROGRAM BACKGROUND Repair Sijan Hall will be a phased construction project that can be constructed independently and without impact to future phases. The focus is dividing the overall building for the design and construction work phases. Each phase will include and not be limited to interior renovations: exterior curtain wall replacement, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, life safety, energy management, any associated exterior and utility work, and communication systems will be addressed and broken up into the phased standalone areas to accommodate the relocation of displaced cadets and allowing the remainder of the building to be open and operational as each phase is being renovated. No disruptions to functions will be permitted to the phases and portions of the building that are not being constructed. Phase 1 also includes installing isolation valves and bypass capability on the High temperature Hot Water (HTHW) system so each mechanical and plumbing zone can be independently isolated. The design will show and provide contractor laydown areas for all phases, and the Energy Management Control System (EMCS) will be sub-metered to include a BTU meter for each mechanical zone. Facilities will be designed as permanent construction in accordance with the DoD Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) 1-200-01, General Building Requirements, UFC 1-200-02, High Performance and Sustainable Building Requirements, and UFC 3-600-01, Fire Protection Engineering for Facilities. Each facility must be compatible with applicable DoD, Air Force, and base design standards. In addition, sustainable (green) construction materials and techniques shall be used where cost effective and/or where specified.
