The types of Task Order submittals may include, but not be limited to inspection and condition assessment reports, engineering alternatives analyses and basis of repair/design reports, engineering calculations, engineering plans and specifications, construction cost estimates, and technical reviews. Additional products and services may include construction contract drawings using computer-aided design and drafting (CADD), per the A/E/C CADD Standard, and specifications produced in SPECSINTACT with Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) using the Unified Facilities Guide Specifications (UFGS); Building Information Model (BIM) modeling, Waterfront UNIFORMAT II classifications standard; contract bid analyses; post construction award services (PCAS); Title II inspection services; database design, construction and population; procedures and guidelines reports; static and dynamic structural analyses using finite element computer modeling; two and three-dimensional structure modeling and rendering; seismic vulnerability assessments, including use of finite element models and time history acceleration data for linear and/or nonlinear analyses of critical elements and development of retrofit schemes. A waterfront facility is defined as any structure located on the waterfront, in connection with, or potentially in contact with, water or the marine environment. This would include inland structures that require underwater investigations. Waterfront facilities include, but are not limited to piers, wharves, bulkheads, quaywalls, offshore towers, dams, levees, water control structures, instrument support structures, dry docks, moorings, underwater cables, or any similar structure. All waterfront facility assessments, including underwater inspections will be performed under direct control and supervision of registered professional engineer-divers. For each underwater assessment, one registered professional engineer-diver shall be appointed as the engineer-in-charge (EIC). That EIC shall dive at least 50% of the time, supervise the writing of the detailed inspection report, and write at least 50% of the detailed inspection reports. The other engineers on-site may write the balance of the inspection report. The EIC shall ensure that all field inspection operations, including diving, are performed in accordance with U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Safety and Health Requirements EM 385-1-1 (September 2008). US citizenship for all on-site personnel, including the requirement to pass a Federal Law Enforcement Agency Background Screening Process for access to Government sites is required. The synopsis that will result from this sources sought is anticipated to result in up to four (4) individual regional contracts being awarded to a single A&E firm for each region. An A&E firm will not be excluded from any region based upon an award in any other single region. As such, multiple regions may be awarded to a single firm. The A&E firm will distinguish which region(s) it desires to be considered for in their submittal package. The anticipated regions are as follows: 1) Northeast, Southeast (including Key West), Great Lakes areas, Puerto Rico and the U.S Virgin Islands. 2) Mid-Atlantic area, specifically Maryland, Washington D.C. & Virginia. 3) Southwest, Hawaii, & Gulf Coast areas. 4) Northwest area (including Alaska) and all Pacific U.S. Territories as defined by www.usa.gov including but not exclusive of American Samoa, Federated States of Micronesia, Guam, Midway Island, Wake Island, Johnston Atoll, Baker Island and the Northern Mariana Islands. For each contract awarded, the prime contractor is required to perform at least 50% of the work (in dollars) for each year of the contract. The A&E firm/team shall have the capacity to support at minimum three simultaneous facility inspections while still meeting the requirements of the contract for prime contractor performance. A single award, indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) type contract is anticipated for each region, with task orders using Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract pricing. Pricing information will be requested of the selected firm for each Task Order. The duration of the contract will be for one year from the date of an initial contract award (Base year), with four (4) additional one-year option periods. The aggregate value of all Task Orders issued under each individual regional contract(s) resulting from the solicitation shall not exceed $15,000,000.00.

The options may be exercised within the time frame specified in the resultant contract(s) at the sole discretion of the Government. Estimated start dates for the regional contract(s) are between February and April 2015. The IDIQ contract type minimum guarantee of $10,000 (per awardee) for the base year of the contract(s), will be satisfied either by the award of an initial Task Order per awardee or by multiple Task Orders with similar delivery schedules requiring the selected firm(s) to provide services with overlapping work/delivery dates.
