THERE IS NO SEPARATE REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP) PACKAGE TO DOWNLOAD. This procurement will result in one Firm Fixed Price stand-alone contract for Architect-Engineer (A-E) services for design of Military Construction (MCON) Project P-224, Ammunition Pier and Turning Basin, located at Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach, California. Estimated start date is April 2017. These services will be procured in accordance with 40 USC Chapter 11, Selection of Architects and Engineers, as implemented by FAR Subpart 36.6. Construction is estimated to start in fiscal year (FY) 2019. The estimated total construction contract price range, per DFARS 236.204 (iii), is between $100,000,000 and $250,000,000. This proposed contract is being solicited on an UNRESTRICTED basis. The Small Business size standard classification is North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) Code 541330 (Engineering Services). The Government seeks the most highly qualified firm to perform the required services, based on the demonstrated competence and qualifications, in accordance with the selection criteria. Project Description: MCON Project P-224 Ammunition Pier and Turning Basin will provide a new pile supported concrete pier, ordnance operations buildings, dredging for pier and turning basin, small boat channel, breakwater, causeway, and demolition. The new facility will be used for ordnance on-loading and off-loading operations. The concrete pier will be approximately 1,100 feet long and 125 feet wide. The deck shall be designed to support a 130 ton mobile crane, 20 ton forklift, and HL93 (AASHTO) highway loading. Fendering system shall support berthing and mooring loads for the design vessels. Additional mooring dolphins will be located off each end of the pier. The single-story ordnance operations buildings will provide administrative offices, break area, restrooms, and storage space for ammunition handling tools and equipment. Dredging will be required for the pier and a turning basin, as well as for creation of a small boat access channel. Dredge material will be disposed of through ocean disposal, upland disposal, and used within the project site (for creation of a truck turn-around area and approach causeway). Some material may be used for creation of shallow water habitat. Other construction within the project site includes construction of a small boat access channel to separate private boat traffic from ordnance operations, a breakwater to limit wave action at the new pier, a causeway for access to the pier, and additional fill near the pier to create a truck turn-around area. Demolition will include removal of several existing facilities on the project site, relocation of one building and mooring buoys, and removal of a portion of the existing jetty. Paving and site improvements include grading, roadways, truck turning area, storm drainage, gates, and security fencing. Department of Defense and Department of the Navy principles for high performance and sustainable building requirements will be included in the design and construction of the project. Low Impact Development will be included as appropriate. Post-construction best management practices for capture and treatment of stormwater will be required. Mechanical utilities will include fire protection water, plumbing, sanitary sewer, and sewer lift station. Electrical utilities include primary distribution system, exterior lighting, switchgear, and grounding. Communications systems include telephone, fiber optic, security, and fire alarm systems and infrastructure. The project shall be designed to comply with anti-terrorism and physical security features, including a port security barrier. All contractors are advised that registration in System for Award Management (SAM) Database is required prior to award of a contract.

Sufficient information to determine the date of design completion of the project must be included in the project description or the project will not be considered. If more than the maximum ten projects are submitted, the Government will only evaluate the first ten projects. All projects provided in the SF 330 must have been performed by the actual office/branch/regional office/individual team member proposed to manage and perform work under this contract.
