The General Services Administration (GSA), Great Lakes Region 5, announces an opportunity to provide General Construction (GC) services for the Customs and Border Protection Seized Cargo Facility project in Detroit, MI. The GC award will be set aside for 8(a) business concerns and will be competitively chosen using source selection (FAR 15) procedures. The objective of the source selection process is to select a proposal that represents the best value to the Government. The award will be made to the responsible Offeror whose offer conforms to the solicitation and offers the best value to the Government, considering the technical factors and the total evaluated price. For this procurement, the technical factors will be significantly more important than price (FAR 15.101-1, Trade Offs). The technical factors will include Past Experience on Similar Projects, Project Management Plan/Approach, Qualifications and Experience of Key Personnel, and Past Performance in providing General Construction Services on similar projects. The Government reserves the right to make an award on initial offers, but discussions may be held if appropriate. The estimated total construction costs for the project falls within the approximate range of $1,000,000 to $5,000,000. The construction contract is anticipated to be awarded in January 2021, with a performance period of 365 calendar days for the project. The requirement for this opportunity includes construction services for a seized Property Vault at the Fort Street Cargo Inspection Facility, 2810 West Fort Street, Detroit, Michigan, at the Ambassador Bridge border crossing.

New construction consists of cast in place concrete, precast concrete wall and roof construction.
