Project Description

The USACE, Louisville District has a requirement for a new Single-Award Task Order Contract (SATOC) Indefinite Delivery / Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) for Architect/Engineer (A/E) services. The SATOC IDIQ will support the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) project via the preparation of a full design package to be used in the advertisement and award of a construction project for a new medium-security FCI and minimum-security FPC in the Mid-Atlantic Region, to include Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, and Maryland. Projects have the potential to be located in remote areas away from larger metropolitan areas. Aspects of the design effort will be awarded by individual firm-fixed price task orders. The maximum cumulative IDIQ contract will not exceed a capacity of $150,000,000. The contract’s ordering period will consist of a ten-year base period with no option years. The required A/E services to be provided under this contract will be multidisciplinary in nature. The project will construct a medium-security FCI and minimum-security FPC on a 500-acre site in accordance with the Record of Decision signed by the BOP on October 28, 2024. Approximately 200 acres will be developed, with the remaining site undisturbed. Locate the development in the center of the site to maintain as much of the natural environment as possible. The project shall incorporate a design that balances the mission of the FCI and FCP with the surrounding area; ensure that architectural design is compatible with the character of the Mid-Atlantic Region; promote a compact development plan; and implement a traffic management plan. Earthwork and related site disturbance is to be minimized by developing the site in a compact, campus-style arrangement. The project will include: Medium-security FCI. Medium-security FCIs have strengthened perimeters (often double-fences with electronic detection systems), cell-type housing, a wide variety of work and treatment programs, and an even more stringent inmate-to-employee ratio than low-security institutions, providing even greater controls. The Proposed FCI would be designed to house 1,152 inmates. Minimum-security FPC. Also known as a satellite work camp; characterized by dormitory-style housing, a high inmate-to-employee ratio, and the absence of security fences. These institutions are work-and program oriented. The proposed FPC would be designed to house 256 inmates.

The Government anticipates releasing the Request for SF330 in the last quarter of FY25. Actual dates and times or the request for SF330 will be identified in the posting to SAM.gov.
