- Description
- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Rock Island District is seeking System for Award Management (SAM) Database registered businesses that can provide the following: Lock Chamber Bulkhead Recesses, Multiple Locks and Dams (15, 16, 18, and 22), Mississippi River, Mississippi River Basin This announcement is for information and planning purposes only and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government, implied or otherwise, to issue a solicitation or award a contract. NO AWARD will be made from this Sources Sought Notice. This is NOT a request for proposal or quote or an invitation for bid. Particularly, the purpose of this NOTICE is to gain knowledge of potential System for Award Management (SAM) Database registered businesses interested and capable of performing this work. DESCRIPTION OF WORK: Work includes, but is not limited to, construction of Lock Chamber Bulkhead Recesses at two sites, with options to install bulkhead recesses at four other locations on the Mississippi River. Bulkhead recesses as part of the Base Bid will be installed on opposing sides of the main lock chamber downstream of the downstream miter gates at Locks 15 and 16 on the Mississippi River. Bulkhead recesses as part of Option 1 will be installed on opposing sides of the auxiliary lock chamber downstream of the downstream miter gates at Lock 15. Bulkhead recesses as part of Options 2, 3, and 4 will be installed on opposing sides on the auxiliary lock chamber upstream of the upstream auxiliary miter gates at Locks 16, 18, and 22 on the Mississippi River. All sites generally have the same work requirements, but each site may have specific details that are unique to each site. In general, work at the sites may include, but is not limited to, temporary support of the miter gate, installation of localized cofferdams and dewatering, concrete removal, fabrication and installation of steel bulkhead recess assemblies, installation of new miter gate embedded anchorages, checkpost installation, installation of anchor and wall armor, concrete placement, re-adjustment of miter gates, fabrication and delivery of sill beam and accessories, installation of embedded electrical ducts, installation of tow haulage unit fairleads, horizontal concrete resurfacing, and repair of damaged turf. SOURCES SOUGHT: The work involved for installation of bulkhead recesses requires several areas of specialized construction, and sufficient resources and expertise to work and two sites concurrently. Portions of the work will be scheduled from December thru March, which requires working in the elements without schedule considerations for cold weather, and additional effort to prevent equipment from getting iced in. There are significant requirements for cold weather concrete placement and curing. There are extensive dive operations to both investigate existing conditions and perform underwater work, such as installing hydraulic jacks and blocking to support 100 ton structures and sealing of localized cofferdams. The localized cofferdams will need to be designed, installed, dewatered, and maintained by the Contractor. All of the installations of bulkhead recesses in the past incorporated the use of floating marine plant, with crane. Due to location of sensitive lock components, concrete removal work will require the use of wire sawing. The installation requires complex structural steel fabrications, and installation of these structures back to existing locations, within tight tolerances. There will be minimal new electrical work, but a large effort to remove, temporary wire, and reinstall conductors within and around the work limits.
