THERE WILL NOT BE A SOLICITATION, SPECIFICATIONS, OR DRAWINGS AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. This notice is a market research tool used for planning purpose only to determine the availability and capability of small business sources prior to issuance of an RFQ. The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Walla Walla, Washington, District is seeking to identify small business firms capable of providing this requirement. Civil Works Asset Management (CWAM) published a formal Program Management Plan (PgMP) in December 2014, accompanied by a policy memo from the Director of Civil Works that stated in part, "As the suite of CWAM tools and processes mature and become available, they shall be implemented and used in their intended fashion across all business lines as a fundamental part of transforming Civil Works." This progress has taken place as designed from that date through the present, to the point where the essential foundational elements for effective Asset Management (AM) are developed and ready for more robust implementation across the Civil Works enterprise. This requirement will focus on three main efforts to further implement CWAM according to the current strategy, the Strategic Asset Management Plan (SAMP), and revised PgMP: 1) development of specific communication and training products to support the intended implementation across Civil Works; 2) facilitation and program management of the national AM effort, in concert with other Civil Works functional elements; and 3) further development of necessary performance-based, risk-informed, and lifecycle-focused decision support tools and processes. In addition, this implementation may require enhancing current business processes or developing new ones. All interested and capable contractors are encouraged to respond. The Government will not pay for any information solicited. Respondents will not be notified of the results of the sources sought evaluation. One of the main functions of this sources sought notice is to assist the Contracting Officer in determining whether an 8(a), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), Certified HUBZone Small Business, Woman-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB) or Small Business set-aside is an acceptable strategy for this procurement.
