Description
This Sources Sought Notice is being issued for market research purposes to determine the availability, capability, and interest of small business firms for a potential Government requirement. NO SOLICITATION IS AVAILABLE; requests for the solicitation will go unanswered. No award will be made from this Notice. Responses will be used to determine potential acquisition strategies, understand current market capabilities, and to gain knowledge of potential sources. GENERAL SCOPE: The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Sacramento District (SPK) anticipates a potential requirement for design-bid-build (DBB) construction services to conduct erosion control and levee strengthening protections along the South bank of the Lower American River (LAR) in Sacramento, California (CA). The anticipated project is required to continue American River Common Features (ARCF) erosion reduction efforts along the LAR. Prior efforts were awarded under USACE contract W9123824C0014, LAR Contract 3 (C3) A. The anticipated forthcoming requirement is referred to as “LAR C3B” (Contract 3B). Market research for this requirement was previously posted as Sources Sought Notice number W9123825BA007. Following initial market research, it was determined that the work would be more appropriately procured as separate acquisitions, based on having separate discreet work locations. See Sources Sought Notice number W9123826S0014 for information related to the new LAR C3B North requirement. The Government anticipates work will be required along the South bank of the American River South (Site 4-1) to include constructing launchable rock toe, launchable trench, bank protection, and tie backs along approximately 1.5 miles of river, located on the left bank, which roughly extends from Watt Avenue upstream to near Mayhew Drain. The Government anticipates work will include excavating, placement, and regrading of material on the riverbank slope and levee embankment, installation of soil-filled rock slope protection on the waterside levee face and riverbank, soil and rock placement to construct river toe protection and planting bench features, instream wood structure placement on the planting benches, construction of buried launchable trench features in the overbank, tie-in of erosion protection elements to existing rock revetment features, providing temporary erosion control for stabilization of disturbed soil areas, and import and placement of riprap. The Government anticipates vegetation clearing may be performed under a separate Government contract prior to erosion protection efforts. A DRAFT copy of the requirement plans and specifications are included as attachments to this Notice. Changes are anticipated to be made to these documents prior to any subsequent solicitation. Questions related to the draft plans and specifications will NOT be entertained; instructions for submitting questions related to any future solicited plans and specifications will be included in any forthcomin…
