Project Description: DDJC Tracy Wastewater Treatment Plant Repairs Anticipated Posting Date: 20 December 2023 Sources Sought Number: W9123824S0010 SAM Posting Title: USACE SPK DB Construction - DDJC Tracy Wastewater Treatment Plant Repairs - Tracy California SAM Posting 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 a 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 to inspect, design and construct necessary repairs to the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) which services the Defense Distribution San Joaquin (DDJC) Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), located in Tracy, California. The existing WWTP is currently operational but in need of repairs due to aging equipment and infrastructure. Currently, the facility is operating at about 25,000-30,000 gallons per day on average which is only about 6 percent of the original capacity of 0.5 million gallons per day (MGD). There is no intent to reduce the capacity of the WWTP with this project. Wastewater treatment must be maintained therefore, it is anticipated that a temporary treatment system will need to be in place to allow for inspections, repairs, and equipment replacement. A minimum of 21 days' notice prior to a temporary treatment system being brought into operation will need to be given to the DLA. Careful coordination between the temporary treatment system supplier and DLA will be required for transferring flow between the existing treatment plant and temporary treatment system. Potential repairs include but are not limited to: Repair of damaged coatings throughout the facility Electrical upgrades to Main Plant Feed and relocation of MCP Upgrades to the Control House to bring the space into OSHA compliance and electrical panel clearances into NEC compliance Replacement of identified valves and pipes throughout the facility Concrete repairs and replacement throughout the facility Replacement of clarifier mechanisms and associated structural upgrades to accommodate and meet latest structural codes Cleaning of clarifiers, pump vaults, trickling filters Replacement of pumps and any associated structural upgrades to accommodate new pumps Replace distribution mechanism in the trickling filters The anticipated requirement may result in a solicitation issued approximately March 2023. If solicited, the Government intends to award the contemplated requirement as a firm-fixed-price construction contract by approximately 30 October 2024. The Government estimates that design and construction of the anticipated requirement can be completed within 365 calendar days. In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 36.204(f), the Government currently estimates the magnitude of construction for this project to be between $1,000,000 - $5,000,000.
