Description
DESCRIPTION: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Louisville District intends to issue Request for Proposal (RFP) W912QR27RA005. This project will utilize a Design-Build-to-Budget delivery method to provide a new Soldier Fitness Training and Testing Facility to contain a 54,600 SF multipurpose athletic field via an enclosed structure at Fort McCoy, WI. The Design-Build Contractor shall design and construct the multipurpose facility housing the athletic field to result in a complete and usable facility including all permitting, sitework, and utilities.
The facility will consist of an indoor 200-meter rubberized running track and turf infield sized according to Army Techniques Publication (ATP) 7-22.01 Holistic Health and Fitness Training requirements for completing the annual Army Combat Fitness Testing (ACFT). The 200-meter rubberized track will consist of three 4-foot lanes with the lanes striped. Once this project is completed it will be recognized as a permanent facility on Fort McCoy.
Supporting facilities include site development, modification to existing improvements, utilities and connections, lighting, paving, sidewalks, storm drainage, information systems, landscaping and signage. Consistent temperature control inside the facility shall be provided by self-contained systems. ATFP measures in accordance with the Department of Defense (DoD) Antiterrorism for Buildings will be provided.
A life safety analysis of the facility shall be conducted to determine compliance with UFC, IBC, and NFPA codes and standards. A new addressable fire alarm system shall be installed in the facility that is compatible with the existing base fire alarm reporting system. Comprehensive building design services shall be required.
Accessibility for individuals with disabilities shall be required. The multipurpose athletic facility will be periodically occupied and shall require adequate clearance and circulation for personnel, maintenance and operations. This is not a continuously used facility, and during periods of non-use utilities will be reduced or disconnected to conserve energy.
The facility shall be designed to a minimum life of 40 years and in accordance with DoD’s Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) 1-200-02 High Performance and Sustainable Building Requirements including energy efficiencies, building envelope, and integrated systems performance. Contract duration is currently estimated at 730 calendar days. Funds are not presently available for this acquisition.

The North American Industrial Classification System Code (NAICS) for this effort is 236220 – Commercial and Institutional Building Construction.
TYPE OF SET-ASIDE: This acquisition will be an Unrestricted (Full and Open) Procurement. SELECTION PROCESS: This is a two-phase Design-Build to Budget procurement. The proposals will be evaluated using a Best Value Trade-Off (BVTO) source selection process.

Potential offerors are invited to submit their information as will be described in Section 00 22 16 of the Solicitation for Phase I and Section 00 22 18 of the Solicitation Phase II amendment for review and consideration by the Government.

Following the completion of the evaluation of Phase I proposals, a maximum of three (3) of the most highly qualified offerors will be invited to proceed to Phase II and be issued a Draft RFP.

After the meetings conclude, the Government will issue the Final Phase II RFP exclusively to the down-selected offerors.
