The Department of the Navy (DON) is modernizing its aging infrastructure, which continues to degrade due to poor environmental conditions, structural deficiencies, and outdated building systems. The goal is to improve warfighter quality of life, ensuring the warfighter’s living and learning environments match the standard of excellence expected on the battlefield. Current military construction processes alone cannot meet the speed or scalability required to achieve the DON’s goal to modernize more than $6B of its barracks portfolio while aligning with operational tempo and strategic readiness goals. To address these challenges, the DON seeks to procure new barracks constructed using advanced manufacturing and Industrialized Construction (IC) methods that are capable of delivering highquality, energy-efficient, and resilient facilities. The use of IC must accelerate delivery timelines and reduce both construction and lifecycle costs while delivering increased quality, durability, resilience, and lifecycle performance using a scalable and repeatable modular design and construction methodology.
This AOI is in reference to “OTA 2: MCI East Barracks (Total ~1,723,259 SF, 12 Buildings)” mentioned in the NAVFAC Special Notice posted to SAM.gov on 1 July 26, which can be found here: https://sam.gov/workspace/contract/opp/01f4c64f2229452f8b0d4760b977f43f/view Desired Solution Objectives:
The DON is seeking commercial vendors with solutions that directly address the challenges listed above while achieving the following objectives:
• Utilize barracks room IC design standards provided by DoN to define advanced manufacturing and IC methodologies (such as volumetric modular, hybrid, and/or Kit of Parts) to deliver high-performing, durable barracks.
• Provide barracks that meet or exceed traditional DoD Unified Facility Criteria (UFC) and Whole Building Design Guide (WBDG) standards. Alternative commercial building methods may be considered where proven equivalency or superiority is demonstrated in durability, longevity, life/safety requirements, and force protection.
