Project Description:

The Norfolk District, Corps of Engineers is conducting Market Research to identify potential Sources for the Construction of Quantico Maintenance Facility at the Marine Corps Base, Quantico, Virginia. The stakeholder/customer for this project is the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) Americas’ schools at Quantico. The project entails the construction of a semi-permanent building to provide essential support for the site maintenance team, addressing their displacement due to the transition to the new Middle High School and the impending demolition of existing temporary structures. The chosen location for this structure will be near the school campuses, a strategic decision to minimize the distance from the actual work site, as opposed to situating it at the (old) Burrows School.

The primary requirement is the design and construction of a semi-permanent pre-engineered building that can effectively cater to the diverse needs of the maintenance team. This includes accommodating lawn maintenance operations, supporting the baseball field, and facilitating minor building maintenance tasks. The building must adhere to stringent specifications, requiring it to be heated, cooled, well-lit, weather-tight, and secure.

The initiation of the project involves a thorough survey to determine the precise size of the facility based on the maintenance team's needs and an examination of the site to identify the most cost-effective and optimal location. The scope of work encompasses creating a space large enough for 4 to 7 workers, establishing parking facilities for both workers and visitors, and providing storage for three commercial zero-turn lawn mowers. Additional considerations include designated areas for hanging motorized and manual tools, storage and bench space for spare parts and basic maintenance, and provisions for daily records keeping.

The multifunctional aspect of the building extends to a partitioned space catering to baseball field support, storage of related equipment, hazardous material storage, signage and scoreboard support, and winter snow removal equipment. Important characteristics for the building's functionality include the provision of phone and internet services, security measures against break-ins, watertight and weather-resilient construction, insulation for year-round use, electricity, a water source for drinking, handwashing, and light cleaning, a unisex toilet, a shower, a hose bib for equipment cleaning, and an air compressor.

Additional considerations involve the establishment of a permanent access road and parking facilities for the workforce, a visually appealing yet simple design, and potential provisions for open but covered storage for trailers and seasonal equipment. Importantly, the project must be completed no later than the beneficial occupancy date (BOD) of the new Middle High School

The anticipated Contract Completion Date is 180 calendar days after Notice to Proceed.

The Contracting Officer has classified this requirement as Commercial and Institutional Building Construction, North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 236210, with a small business size standard of $45 million. In accordance with FAR 36.204, the magnitude of construction for this project is between $1,000,000.00 and $5,000,000.00.
