COMMERCE BUSINESS DAILY ISSUE OF FEBRUARY 9,1995 PSA#1280US Army Engineer Division, Huntsville, ATTN: CEHND-PM-AE, PO Box 1600,
4820 University Square, Huntsville, Alabama 35816-1822 C -- ARCHITECT-ENGINEER TITLE I AND TITLE II SERVICES FOR SURVEYING
AND DIGITAL ELEVATION MODEL CREATION FOR VARIOUS SITES POC Terry
Burton, Contract Specialist, or J. N. Etheridge, III, Contracting
Officer, telephone 205-895-1381. Professional engineering services for
performing photogrammetric mapping, control surveys, kinematic global
positioning (GPS) sur- veys, aerotriangulation and creation of digital
elevation models (DEMs) for the St. Louis District, U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers. This contract will be used for ground surveys,
aerotriangulation and DEM creation for non-contigous area's along the
Mississippi, Missouri and Illinois rivers. Work will be accomplished
under a firm-fixed-price contract and the estimated cost range is
between $2 million and $4 million for one calendar year. The contract
is anticipated to be awarded by June 1995. If a large business is
selected for this contract, it must comply with FAR 52.219-9 regarding
the work requirement for subcontracting plan on that part of the work
that it intends to subcontract. The subcontract- ing goals for this
contract are 40% of the contractor's intended subcontract amount be
placed with small businesses (SB), includ- ing small disadvantaged
businesses (SDB), and 8% be placed with SDB, including Historically
Black Colleges and Universities or Minority Institutions. The plan is
not required with this submit- tal. PROJECT INFORMATION: The DEM data
must comply with American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing
(ASPRS), Class 1 mapping of topographic elevation data for four (4)
foot contour intervals. DEM data collection will be in standard ASCII
DEM format and requires five (5) meter post spacing horizontal
resolution along with mass points and breaklines as required to depict
topographic features at the required accuracy standard. Vertical
resolution of the DTM data will be 1/10 foot. The data collection will
be collected from three sources. (a) DEM creation of areas where
suitable hardcopy mapping data is not provided will be accomplished
from existing aerial photography flown at a mean elevation above ground
of 8,000 feet with a six (6) inch focal length aerial camera (with
airborne GPS control), additional ground control, aerotriangulation,
and compilation of mass points and breaklines to depict topography. (b)
DEM creation will be generated for portions of selected areas from
suitable hardcopy mapping provided by the government and incorporated
into DEMs to complete coverage. (c) Selected linear features such as
but not limited to road and levees will require a higher accuracy
requirement for DEM posts. DEM data will be collected for these areas
with the use of kinematic GPS. This data will also be added to existing
DEM data collected by other methods described above to complete area
coverages. PROJECT AREAS. The areas considered for digital elevation
data creation are non-contigous areas along the Mississippi, Missouri
and Illinois Rivers and within the states of Arkansas, Mississippi,
Louisiana, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Missouri, Illinois, Kansas,
Kentucky, Tennessee and Nebraska. The approximate locations of the
areas are as follows: a. The confluence of the Mississippi and Missouri
Rivers north of St. Louis, Missouri/Illinois. b. The Missouri River
from Brownville, Nebraska to Forbes, Missouri. c. The Missouri River
from Dewit, Missouri to the southern point of Wallace Island. d. The
Missouri River through Kansas City, Missouri/Kansas south to Eton,
Missouri. e. The confluence of the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers
including the Mississippi River from Commerce, Missouri south to
Tipptonville, Tennessee and the Ohio River from Olmstead, Illinois
south to the Mississippi River. f. The Mississippi River from
Clarksville, Missouri south to Cape au Gris, Missouri. g. The Illinois
River from Pearl, Illinois south to the confluence of the Illinois and
Mississippi Rivers. EVALUATION FACTORS: See Note 24 for general
selection process. The selection criteria, in descending order of
importance (first by major criterion and then by each sub- criterion)
are: 1. SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE AND TECHNICAL COM- PETENCE: (a)
Specialized experience and expertise in surveys in- cluding
plainmetric, topographic, geodetic control, location, GPS surveying,
aerial photo control surveys, and in field data processing and survey
adjustments. (b) Demonstrated DEM creation experience (at the
accuracies specified above) must include the following: (1) Ground
survey control selection and incorpora- tion of airborne GPS data in
photo control to perform aerotrian- gulation solutions for government
furnished photographic stereomodels for DEM compilation. (2)
Compilation of topographic features in the form of breaklines and mass
points of the ground surface from aerial photo stereopairs. (3)
Utilizing existing hardcopy topographic mapping to produce vector lines
from contours and convert them to DEMs. (4) Collection and inclusion of
surveyed linear features from kinematic GPS surveys into DEM for the
purpose of enhancing the accuracy of critical DEM points. (5) Combining
any and/or all of the above data types into a complete DEM coverage.
(c) Firms must have the ability to submit all DEM data as standard
ASCII DEM format at the required resolution (five (5) meter post
spacing horizontally and 1/10-foot vertically) on 2.3 or 5 Gigabyte 8mm
tapes and .25 inch tapes). 2. CAPACITY OF THE FIRM TO FURNISH EQUIPMENT
AND PERSONNEL to ACCOMPLISH THE WORK AS REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN DELIVERY
OF a QUALITY PRODUCT ON TIME AND WITHIN BUDGET. (a) Firms will
demonstrate that they presently have all necessary software and
hardware including but not limited to at least three (3) fully
analytical first order stereoplotters, aerotriangulation software,
computers and tape drives capable of generating the products described
above. (b) Firms will demonstrate that they presently have electronic
total stations with data collectors, kinematic GPS equipment capable
of subcentimeter measurement accuracy and Computer Aided Drafting and
Design (CADD) data processing equipment. (c) Firms will demonstrate
that they have adequate full time permanent three man survey crews on
staff. 3. PROFESSIONAL QUALIFICATIONS: (a) All survey work must be
performed under the supervision of a Registered Land Surveyor or a
Registered Professional Engineer with experience in surveying with
demonstrated experience in computer aided drafting and design (CADD),
demonstrated experience in GPS data processing and network adjustments
and who is full time permanent staff member with the firm. (b) All
aerotriangulation and DEM generation must be accomplished under the
