The intent is to provide permanent basing standards using K-Span construction methods and standardized designs to complete the project within a 550 day period of performance (POP). Phased construction is required by no later than date (NLT) to expand the current facility to accommodate 4,300 personnel within 365 days. Partial occupancy will require the following facilities: Barracks, DFAC, latrines, full utilities, and force protection. The intent is to provide permanent basing standards using the most cost efficient and expeditious construction methods. Disclaimer: The term K-Span refers to a proprietary arch span type structural system. Whenever the term K-Span is used, it refers to K-Span type system or equivalent. This project is part of an initiative to maximize the use of K-Span construction methods. Consequently, this project may include the use of Government Furnished Materials (GFM) to expedite the K-Span construction. An effort is currently in progress to pre-stage GFM in anticipation of this and other similar projects throughout Afghanistan. To that end, the bidders will be required to submit two bids for this solicitation; one bid for using K-Span construction using GFM, and one bid for using a combination of K-Span and Concrete Masonry Unit (CMU) construction using Contractor furnished material. The Government will chose which method to apply at the time of contract award. There are some mandatory K-Span buildings required for this project whether the government chooses to use Government furnished steel or Contractor furnished steel. Standard designs will be provided for all the K-span buildings required in this IFB. For several of the facilities associated with this project, the contractor will be afforded the opportunity to choose between K-span/rolled steel and CMU construction. Disclaimer: The term K-Span refers to a proprietary arch span type structural system. Whenever the term K-Span is used, it refers to a K-Span type system or its equivalent. The Contractor may be required to coordinate the efforts required under this contract with at least one other contractor at the site. The coordination effort may be significant and may include such tasks as the exchange of information with other contractors such as design data, drawings, calculations, and technical information. Additionally, it may be necessary for the contractor to conduct meetings, hold teleconferences, and prepare the submittal of additional information to the Contracting Officer (KO) that demonstrates the coordination and integration of new work with existing and future work of other contractors. All coordination shall be in agreement with the KO and approved prior to the commencement of any work. This is an Invitation for Bid (IFB) solicitation.
