Description

THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE ONLY. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS OR INVITATION FOR BID. THERE IS NOT A SOLICITATION, SPECIFICATIONS OR DRAWINGS AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME.This annual market research is in support of the existing “Construction Multiple Award Contract” (C-MAC) contract vehicle in use by the Department of the Interior, Indian Affairs as well as general market research to support potential stand-alone construction contracts. This annual market research assesses the market and will document if qualified contractors are available, for the purposes of making decisions about conducting on-ramping and re-procurement. The C-MAC is set-aside for Indian Small Business Economic Enterprises (ISBEEs). Stand-alone construction projects will also generally be set aside for ISBEEs. Qualified ISBEEs may respond with qualifications information that will be documented and kept on file. Current C-MAC holders are also invited to respond with their updated qualifications for the Government’s consideration in re-procurement planning.The C-MAC provides a vehicle for Indian Affairs and the Department of the Interior to procure construction services for Design-Build (DB)/Design-Bid-Build (DBB) for facilities located across the Continental United States and Indian Country. Contracts in the C-MAC may require that contractors manage multiple concurrent task orders across the nation. The C-MAC encompasses a wide range of DB and DBB projects that include, but are not limited to: new construction; offsite design build construction*; offsite construction (modular construction); demolition, repair, alteration, and renovation of buildings; systems and infrastructure; and, may include civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, fire protection, and communication systems. Types of facilities to be constructed include but are not limited to: educational, detention, medical, administrative, industrial, operational, maintenance, warehouses, communications, personnel support, recreation, lodging, dormitory, training, ranges, and roads. The selected contractors will be responsible for all labor, supervision, engineering, design, materials, equipment, tools, parts, supplies, and transportation to perform the services described in the drawings and specifications for each individual project.The ordering period for current contracts is five (5) years ending in May of 2028. On-ramped contracts would end contemporaneously with the original contracts. The total price for all contracts combined will not exceed $1,500,000,000.00 ($1.5 billion) for the five-year life of the contracts. Projects awarded on the C-MAC have an estimated construction cost of approximately $5,000,000.00 to $60,000,000.00; however, smaller and larger dollar value projects may be considered. Stand-alone contracts for construction may range from $500,000 to $200,000,000 or more. The Government does not contemplate on-ramping contractors for the C-MAC currently. The Government does intend to begin planning for the re-procurement of this contract in fiscal year 2027. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this C-MAC is 236220, Commercial and Institutional Building Construction. The Small Business Size Standard is $45,000,000. All responses should include:(1) Information about the contractor including business size, socio-economic subcategory, and unique entity identifier (UEI).(2) Information on past projects.
