The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers � Tulsa has been tasked to solicit for and award a contract for the full demolition and reconstruction of Taxiway Echo, both keel and shoulders, at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma.� The proposed project will be a competitive, firm-fixed price contract procured in accordance with FAR 15, Negotiated Procurement, using the trade-off process. �The type of set-aside decision to be issued will depend upon the capabilities of the responses to this synopsis. The purpose of this synopsis is to gain knowledge of interest, capabilities, and qualifications of various members of industry, to include the small business community: Small Business, Section 8(a), Historically Underutilized Business Zones (HUB-Zone), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB). The government must ensure there is adequate competition among the potential pool of responsible contractors. �Small businesses, Section 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB and WOSB businesses are highly encouraged to participate. The Government is seeking qualified, experienced sources capable of performing taxiway pavement repair and reconstruction in accordance with applicable codes and standards.� The project will also include the removal and reinstallation of edge lighting fixtures on the taxiway shoulder. Existing Conditions and Demolition:� The existing Taxiway Echo is situated east-to-west from Runway 18/36, crossing Taxiway Gulf and ending at Ramp Tango (Navy).� The concrete slabs of the taxiway have been continuously plagued by cracking and groundwater seeping to the surface for years.� The original construction of this taxiway shows it never included a drainage layer, therefore forcing an artesian condition, combined with a saturated clay base for the slabs, exerting pressure on the slabs.� Addressing the deficiencies of the existing Taxiway Echo construction will require a full-depth demolition and construction conforming to contemporary standards for both the concrete and asphalt surfaces of the facility. Site and Utilities Improvements:� Taxiway Echo consists of a 75-feet wide rigid (PCC) pavement slabs keel, with 50-feet wide flexible (asphalt) pavement shoulders at both sides, which connect Taxiway Gulf to the Ramp Tango (Navy).� Its section slopes from the centerline shall be in accordance with the Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC).� A full design for the reconstruction of Taxiway Echo will be required, complying with the following: 1.� UFC 3-260-01, Airfield and Heliport Planning and Design Section 5-5 (Fixed-Wing Taxiway Dimensions) and Table 5-1 Section 5-8 (Taxiway Intersection Criteria) with Tables 5-4 and 5-5 Section 5-10 (Apron Access Taxiways) Section 5-11 (Tow Ways) 2.� UFC 3-260-02, Pavement Design for Airfields Minimum PCC thickness shall be 18-inch for structural slabs Maximum transverse joints spacing shall be 18 feet Maximum longitudinal joints spacing shall be 18 feet, except at curves 3.� All applicable Codes and Standards for Tinker Air Force Base Grading and Drainage:� Grading for the reconstruction of the Taxiway Echo facility shall consider the UFC 3-260-1 parameters applicable to a taxiway and shall include in its analysis the drainage layer under the taxiway pavement sections, to avoid an artesian confinement of underground water flow. Erosion Control:� An erosion control plan shall be required, utilizing applicable Best Management Practices to control the runoff of silt and sediment from the site during rainfall events and reduce the amount of sediment leaving the site resulting from construction activities. Edge Lighting:� Taxiway Echo Lighting Fixtures will be removed, with LED flush fixtures to be stored and protected for re-installation.� All removed electrical equipment such as conduit, conductors, poles, and pole bases, etc. shall be disposed of by the contractor off site.� Taxiway edge lights will be installed after all pavement work is complete. Edge lighting will not be needed for towing during construction. Construction will be conducted in two phases: Phase One (1): �Demolish and repair full depth for one half of Taxiway Echo and demolish and reinstall lighting on the half of Taxiway Echo shoulder. Phase Two (2):� Demolish and repair full depth for other half of Taxiway Echo and demolish and reinstall lighting on other half of Taxiway Echo shoulder. ��� In accordance with FAR 36.204, the estimated magnitude of construction for this project is between $5,000,000 and $10,000,000.
