This is a Sources Sought Notice issued solely for market research purposes under FAR Part 10. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Sacramento District, is seeking to identify qualified firms interested in and capable of performing as a MATOC contractor to support regional vertical and select horizontal construction projects throughout the USACE enterprise. This notice does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP), Invitation for Bid (IFB), or any commitment on the part of the Government to issue a solicitation or award a contract in the future.
The purpose of this notice is to assess the availability and capability of potential sources to provide the required services and to ensure adequate competition among a pool of responsible contractors. Firms with no prior Government contract experience are still encouraged to respond.
Anticipated Contract Overview
The Sacramento District intends to establish a Regional Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) with an estimated ceiling of $5 billion to support vertical construction and some horizontal projects. The expected duration of the IDIQ contracts is eight (8) years.
There are two anticipated MATOCs:
- Unrestricted (Firm Fixed Price) for construction requirements greater than $10 million to support the South Pacific Division entire area of responsibility.
- Small Business Set-Aside (Firm Fixed Price) for requirements less than $10 million to support each District’s geographical boundary.
The majority of individual Task Orders under this program are expected to range from $5 million to $50 million. Contractors must have sufficient bonding capacity to support multiple simultaneous task orders.
Work will primarily support the South Pacific Division Area of Responsibility (AOR), which includes California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, and portions of Colorado, Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, and Texas. However, support may extend across the broader USACE enterprise.
Contracts will be administered under DFARS 217.204(e)(i), and contractors shall comply with FAR 52.236-1 and FAR 36.501, requiring at least 15% of the contract cost (excluding materials) to be self-performed.
The primary NAICS Code is 236220, Commercial and Institutional Building Construction with a size standard of $45 million, and the Federal Supply Code (FSC) is Y1JZ. A secondary NAICS code is 237990 Construction of Miscellaneous Buildings and, Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction with a size standard of $45 million, and the FSC Y1PZ. The duration of the suite of IDIQ contracts within the programmatic approach is eight years.
