Grand Haven North Pier Wave Attenuator

THIS IS A PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL OR INVITATION FOR BID.

The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Detroit District is seeking contractors with the capability to provide construction services for the Grand Haven North Pier Wave Attenuator project.

Marine construction will involve demolition and removal of Approximately 224-324 ft of section B of the existing north pier SSP & timber cribbing structure and replacement with a stone revetment which will act as a wave attenuator. Handrails may be installed along walkway as an option. An H-pile supported concrete walkway will be integrated into a rubble mound wave attenuator 16 feet north of the existing pier structure to connect the adjacent portions of the pier that will remain in-tact. The new walkway will be offset away from the channel to ensure that the new stone revetment will not protrude into the channel. To connect the new walkway with the existing walkways at either end there will be rectangular cellular structures, perpendicular to the primary walkway, constructed of steel sheet pile, walers, and tie-rods.

The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this work is 237990, Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction, which has a small business size standard of $45.0 million in average annual receipts.

The Government intends to solicit this opportunity as an Invitation for Bid (IFB). The IFB is intended to be issued as total small business set aside and the Government intends to award to the lowest priced bid that is determined to be responsible.

The Government intends to issue a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) Construction Contract.
