Project Description: Forebay Dredge System Modifications, Washington Aqueduct Division, Washington, DC. The solicitation will be for a construction contract and it will be advertized as an invitation for bid (IFB) in the $1M - $5M range. The purpose of the project is to install mechanical grinders and an odor control system to the solids dewatering system. The work includes civil, structural, mechanical and electrical modifications to two facilities used to convey and process water treatment residual solids at the Washington Aqueduct. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) for this requirement is 237110 (Water and Sewer Line and Related Structures Construction) and Business Size Standard of $33.5 Million. The Washington Aqueduct provides portable water to approximately one million people in the District of Columbia and Northern Virginia. WA maintains and operates the Dalecarlia and McMillan Water Treatment Plants (WTPs). Raw water is diverted from the Potomac River to the Dalecarlia Reservoir from where it is distributed to the Dalecarlia WTP and via the Georgetown Reservoir to the McMillan WTP. The Washington Aqueduct via its treatment process removes sediment and other solids from the Potomac River source water. These solids are collected and conveyed to the Residuals Processing Facility, where they are gravity thickened and dewatered for disposal. The material contains a large amount of organic and other debris which have the potential to cause the equipment used to collect and process the residual solids to malfunction. The main focus of the project is to install mechanical grinders to aid in the processing of river sediment and to install an odor control system to better handle odor issues associated the residuals treatment process. Hence, the project consists of providing all necessary electrical, mechanical, and related structural work to install up to five inline 25 Hp mechanical grinders, a pumping station wet well mixing pump and modifications to and commissioning of an electrically power floating cable dredge. The project also includes the installation of an activated carbon bed, odor control scrubber system, including all ductwork, structural modifications, hoisting, and blower details. There is also minor work related to the installation of roof drains, roof membrane, and concrete repairs to the structure. Therefore, an experienced contractor with resources and expertise to handle the following project constraints is needed: i. The work is located in a functional industrial processing facility, requiring work around sensitive plant equipment that must remain operational during construction activities. ii. Connection to existing features will be required to be coordinated to minimize outage conditions and durations. iii. Work is located in marginally accessible areas, requiring hoisting equipment to be installed on the upper levels of closed in buildings. iv. Programmed automation is subject to federal information technology security provisions. Interested qualified Small Business (SB), Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB), Service Disabled Veteran Owned SB (SDVOSB), Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB), Historically Underutilized Business Zones (HUBZones), or Qualified Section 8(a) certified firms should submit a concise narrative and specific project examples of similar size and scope that demonstrate their specialized experience and technical competence in: a) Installation of inline mechanical grinding systems and associated pipe and electrical work. b) Installation of activated carbon odor control systems and associated ducts, and mechanical apparatus. c) Installation of pumps and associated piping and electrical work in pumping station wet wells. d) Maintenance and modifications to floating cable dredge systems. e) Modifications to industrial controls programming, data collection systems, and associated security procedures. f) Installation of hoisting and lifting equipment within an occupied building. g) Knowledge of quality control, scheduling, and safety procedures and documentation, similar to those typically utilized on USACE projects. Capability statements should include information and details of similar projects, to include contract value. In addition please provide a letter from the surety regarding the potential Small Business General Contractor's maximum bonding capability for a single contract action total aggregate bonding capacity. Narratives shall be no longer than ten pages. Email responses are preferred. Comments will be shared with the Government and the project design team, but otherwise will be held in strict confidence. Responses must include the Offerors' name, POC phone number, SAM information and email address.
