Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Municipality of Anchorage (MOA) is soliciting proposals from qualified consultants to provide independent cost estimating (ICE) services to support the Port of Alaska Modernization Program’s (PAMP) Terminal 1 (T1) and Terminal 2 (T2) projects. ICE services will be used to prepare third-party construction cost estimates. The ICE will be used as a comparison to the cost estimates prepared by the Program Management Consultant (PMC) and the T1 Designer of Record (DOR) and to help inform decisions regarding several programmatic alternatives for T2. The PAMP will replace and modernize the Port of Alaska’s marine terminals over five (5) phases. The existing marine terminals have exceeded their useful life and require replacement to ensure reliable and efficient service. The reconstruction of this U.S. Department of Defense designated strategic seaport will enable safe, cost-effective, reliable, and resilient Port operations by updating and optimizing Port facilities. The PAMP when complete, will provide seismically resilient, pile supported terminals, with a 75-year design life. Under current use arrangements T1 will support the POA as the primary Lift-on/Lift-off (LOLO) and T2 will support the POA as the primary Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO) terminal. In addition to current cargo operations, both terminals are being designed to accommodate multi-purpose missions and to consider future use.
