- Description
- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will be issuing a solicitation using two-phase design-build selection procedures for the design and construction of a 66 bedroom dormitory at the Hanscom Air Force Base, Bedford, MA. This procurement is 100% set-aside for small business concerns under the following NAICS code and size standard: 236220 ($36.5 million in average annual receipts). Award is anticipated on or about September 2015. The estimated construction cost is expected to range from $10,000,000.00 to $15,000,000.00. This is not a request for proposals at this time. The solicitation requirements and contract documents to include instructions for submission and the response date will be available on or about July 10th, 2015. Neither telephonic, mailed nor faxed requests for hard copies of this solicitation will be accepted. The solicitation will only be available online; in order to download the solicitation, offerors must access the Federal Business Opportunities website (www.fbo.gov). All responsible sources may submit a bid which shall be considered by the New England District. Additional questions may be emailed to the Contract Specialist at raushanah.muhammad@usace.army.mil The work shall include the existing E1-E4 Airmen dormitories at the HAFB, Buildings 1510 and 1511, which are rapidly deteriorating and require immediate replacement. Building 1510 and 1511 will be demolished as part of the project scope or work. The new dormitory will be a 3-story facility with 66 total bedrooms and will encompass approximately 25,000sf. The current building design includes standard spread footings founded on rammed aggregate piers due to mixed, loose soils, with a traditional slab-on grade first floor slab. The proposed building superstructure will be load-bearing, reinforced, cast-in-place, insulated concrete exterior walls. Exterior wall finishes will be a combination of masonry veneer at the lower level and EIFS above. The roof will be a light-gauge metal frame carrying a sloped, standing-seam metal roof assembly with full perimeter gutters. The dormitory will have a full-coverage wet fire suppression system. The plumbing system will require standard construction techniques but will include water-saving fixtures for LEED compliance. There will be no site irrigation. Domestic hot water will be provided by a packaged solar hot water heating system with a natural gas backup. Space heating will be provided by fan coil units with VAV boxes. Chilled water for fan units will be provided by central air cooled chillers. Heating hot water for fan coil units and other terminal heating equipment will be provided by central high efficiency gas fired boilers. Some high load interior spaces may be cooled by electric DX air handling equipment. Ventilation air will be provided by a central energy recovery system and ducted to each fan coil unit. Electrical systems will include Hanscom standard power, communications and alarms. No dedicated emergency power will be required. The orientation of the building will be north-south such that the living quarters on either side of the central linear corridor will give all bedrooms and unit living areas partial access to day lighting (either morning or afternoon). The dormitory entry and common areas will be located at the south end of the building, to the north side of the access road to building 1548 (Fitness Center), convenient to parking and recreational fields. The dormitory will reuse, with new striping and handicap spaces, the existing parking lot to the east while maintaining current traffic patterns and does not add significant paving area or other impermeable surfaces. The design and construction will comply with multiple Air Force and DoD reference standards which include: Air Force Unaccompanied Housing Design Guide for E-1 - E-4 Airmen, the Hanscom Air Force Base Master Plan, the Hanscom Air Force Base Architectural Design Compatibility Standards, and the DoD ATFP Standards. The facility will be LEED Silver certified.
