- Description
- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New York District intends to award a firm fixed-price construction contract through the Request For Proposal (RFP) process for the following scope of work: The existing facilities at West Point for engineering students no longer meet the needs of the competitive world class program. Built over 50 years ago, the current accommodations are outdated, compartmentalized and inefficient due to the limitations of fitting in necessary programs into existing spaces. The United States Army Garrison (USAG) at West Point (WP), New York, has proposed the development of a modern computer and engineering sciences academic building on the campus of the United States Military Academy (USMA) at West Point. The new academic building, known as the Cyber�Engineering and Academic Center (CEAC) fulfills the need for a state-of-the-art collaborative science and engineering learning space enabling USMA Cadets to experiment and develop new and emerging technologies that will enable the United States Military to remain at the technological forefront of new battlefields, both physical and digital. This facility will attract and train future generations of engineering officers for the United States Military. There are three (3) academic engineering departments which CEAC is programmed for. These departments are: Civil and Mechanical Engineering (CME), Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS), and Systems Engineering (SE). At four floors and a total of 136,000 SF, the CEAC facility will provide innovative spaces for the noted academic departments. Drone flyover and rendering of the future site: https://vimeo.com/365384524/44629928e6 The building will be located west of Mahan Hall and south of Building 606 along Thayer Walk, the main pedestrian access way of the Central Area. It is an ideal location on campus, adjacent to other cadet facilities, such as academic buildings and barracks. This project also includes a Parking Structure for a maximum of 450 parking stalls as identified on the DD1391. The Parking Structure is an underground facility, beneath CEAC, and will be restricted to authorized personnel only. New hardscape and landscaping is proposed to integrate CEAC with the existing academic buildings and barracks located within the Central Zone at USMA. The project also includes a pedestrian bridge connecting CEAC to Mahan and will span over Thayer Road/Walk. The primary purpose is to facilitate flow of cadets, faculty, staff and equipment and encourage collaboration and sharing between these buildings. It will be a fully enclosed bridge with an exterior rooftop walkway to allow for the connection on multiple levels. The bridge is in a location of exceptional visual impact on the Central Post Area of the historic campus and will significantly emphasize the gateway to Central Area. This project also includes a Signature Meeting Space and Colloquium / Collaboration Space to be located on the fourth level of CEAC and will include high tech audio/visual capabilities. The spaces are intended to allow for a multitude of functions including: presentations, meetings with dignitaries, colloquia and conferences, group capstone integration meetings, in-briefs and out-briefs with external organizations, and Cadet project presentations. These spaces will also improve recruiting of prospective Cadets and will highlight West Point�s position as a first-tier academic and leader development institution. The project include a substantial amount of rock removal (300,000 Cubic Yards of Granite) to level the site.� The rock removal is considered a significant aspect of the project requiring careful blasting and vibration limitations on neighboring structures. The period of performance for this project is approximately 1461 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed date. The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 236220 for Commercial & Institutional Facilities. In accordance with DFARS 236.204, the estimated magnitude of construction is between $100,000,000 and $250,000,000. Any and all amendments shall be posted on beta.SAM.gov.
