This project will provide a new +/- 60,000 SF single-bay hangar facility and associated airfield apron, site features, utilities, and infrastructure for radio frequency testing of the emerging B-21 airframe. The project may include bid options for furniture, furnishing and equipment (FF&E), user-funded equipment, intrusion detection systems (IDS), access control systems (ACS), and closed-circuit television (CCTV) systems. Facilities will be designed as permanent construction in accordance with the DoD Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) 1-200-01, General Building Requirements and UFC 1-200-02, High Performance and Sustainable Building Requirements.

Special construction and functional requirements: The project will be constructed on Row 60 of flightline facilities at EAFB. As such, the project will be constructed adjacent to � and is required to integrate with � active airfield operations. It will also be constructed adjacent to other active B-21 facility construction sites. Demolition of existing facilities, utilities, and infrastructure � to include hazardous materials contaminated hangars, apron, and soils may be required. New airfield apron will be designed in compliance with UFC 3-260-02 and will be constructed in compliance with UFGS 32 13 14.13.

As indicated above, this project will utilize a design-bid-build (DBB) delivery method and will be solicited via Request for Proposal (RFP) for construction services with a best value tradeoff (BVTO) selection methodology. The Government has received recent industry feedback that a �2-phase� process as defined by FAR 36.3 may be favored by the construction community since it provides offerors the ability to understand their standing in the selection process prior to investing the time, effort, and resources necessary to price the proposed project. While that �2-phase� methodology cannot be used on this DBB project, the Government is considering the use of prequalification of sources as defined by DFARS 236.272 in support of this acquisition. Prequalification of sources may be utilized to achieve the following goals: Assure that the entire offeror pool issued the RFP for pricing is technically acceptable to construct this specialized, complex, and secure project. Allow the Government to notify offerors that are deemed not technically acceptable prior to requesting pricing for the project. Please provide offeror feedback (not to exceed 1 page of the total referenced above) regarding the potential use of prequalification of sources as a methodology to achieve the referenced goals. Feedback and submission information provided may be utilized by the Government in establishing technical criteria for prequalification of sources � if used. Responses will be shared with Government personnel and the project management team on a need to know basis, but otherwise will be held in strict confidence. PLEASE NOTE: AT THIS TIME, WE ARE ONLY INTERESTED IN RESPONSES FROM COMPANIES WHO HAVE THE ABILITY TO BE PRIME CONTRACTORS WITH BONDING CAPABILITY (SINGLE JOB) OF AT LEAST $50M.
