## Description

REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) / MARKET INTELLIGENCE NOTICE This is a Request for Information (RFI) for market intelligence and for informational purposes only. This announcement does not constitute a Solicitation or a Request for Proposal (RFP), and no solicitation is currently available. Participation in this RFI is strictly voluntary. The Government will not be obligated to award any agreement or contract because of this RFI, nor will it reimburse respondents for any costs associated with the preparation or submission of information. Submitting a response will not affect a firm’s ability to submit a proposal should formal solicitation be issued in the future. NAICS Code: 236220 – Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (Note: While Other Transaction Authority is not subject to FAR-based small business regulations, this NAICS code is provided for market research to help the Government understand the size and demographics of the interested industrial base.) Small Business Size Standard: $45 Million PROJECT OVERVIEW The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Louisville District, has a requirement for the design and construction of a project to repair, restore, and modernize Building 410 – the General Stilwell Army Reserve Center (ARC) – a failing two-story, 144,360 SF Command and Control / training facility, along with Non-Organizational (POV) parking and supporting utilities, located at Fort Hood, Texas. The scope of work consists of furnishing all necessary design services, equipment, materials, labor, construction management, supervision, quality control, and supplies to deliver a fully functional, code-compliant, and modernized facility that extends the economic life of the building by 25 years and enables mission readiness for the assigned Army Reserve units. Building 410 was constructed in November 1985 and provides mission-essential functional areas in support of six Legal Detachments, a Training Brigade, Transportation Company, Civil Affairs Brigade, Human Resources Company Headquarters, a Public Affairs Detachment, and the Reserve Personnel Action Center. The mechanical, plumbing, and electrical systems are beyond their serviceable life. A technical assessment has confirmed widespread facility deterioration. Key facility deficiencies include: • Roof membrane system has exceeded useful life and is past warranty; exterior doors, windows, and storefronts require replacement; interior finishes (walls, flooring, acoustical ceilings) are failing. • HVAC systems (rooftop units, air handlers, boilers, pumps, piping, radiation units, controls, and exhaust fans) are in failing condition or original to the building. • Electrical infrastructure is original, fully loaded 1600A main panel with no capacity for additional loads; insufficient outlets creating safety hazards; distribution panels and wiring require modernization. • Plumbing fixtures and sanitary piping require code upgrades; hot water heater is undersized. • Telecommunications infrastructure (Category 5/6 cabling) is unreliable and does not comply with current Army Reserve Network Enterprise Center (ARNEC), TIA-607, or UFC 3-580-01 standards; no Primary or Secondary Bonding Busbars. • No fire sprinkler system; bathrooms do not meet ADA standards; facility lacks an elevator; telecommunication spaces are undersized. • Hazardous materials (asbestos and lead-based paint) identified throughout the facility requiring abatement. SCOPE: The project repairs and restores Building 410 by addressing widespread facility deterioration and returning the structure to a fully functional, code-compliant training facility. Work includes comprehensive repairs to failing electrical, plumbing, and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, along with full rehabilitation of the building envelope, including roof replacement. The facility will be brought up to Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards. The project will demolish and abate all failing components and hazardous materials. Asbestos, mold, lead-based paint, biohazard, or other hazardous materials will be handled, stored, and disposed of in accordance with current laws and regulations. Supporting work includes Non-Organizational Vehicle Parking and Supporting Utilities improvements. Other methods of meeting this requirement were analyzed, including building demolition and new construction; however, these were deemed unviable due to the cost of repair versus the cost of demolition and new construction. The repair of this facility is more cost effective than replacement. Estimated Acquisition Magnitude: $90,000,000 PRIMARY ACQUISITION STRATEGY UNDER EVALUATION: Progressive Design Build (PDB) via Other Transaction Authority (OTA). The Louisville District is evaluating a Progressive Design Build (PDB) strategy utilizing an Other Transaction (OT) Agreement under the authority of 10 U.S.C. § 2808a. This authority is intended for military construction projects that involve testing and experimentation associated with new and emergent construction technologies to achieve potential benefits such as enhanced mission resilience, improved installation support, or cost and schedule reduction. The PDB Course of Action (10 U.S.C. § 2808a): This path allows USACE to execute a construction project where the Construction Firm is brought in during the design. The Louisville District anticipates onboarding the collaborative partner at an appropriate design maturity to maximize value. Phase 1 (Design & Pre-Construction): The Government and the OT Awardee will work collaboratively to advance the design, perform constructability reviews, conduct open-book cost estimating, and mitigate project risks. Phase 2 (Construction): Upon reaching an agreed-upon level of design (e.g., 60% to 90%), the Awardee will propose a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP). If the GMP is accepted, the Government will exercise Phase 2 for construction execution. If a GMP cannot be agreed upon, the Government retains an
