Design-Build (DB) Barracks Initiative (Package #2), Marine Corps Base (MCB) Camp Lejeune, North Carolina

The solicitation N4008526R0058 seeks qualified offerors to deliver a Design-Build project for the replacement of Bachelor Enlisted Quarters at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune and Marine Corps Air Station New River in North Carolina, involving the demolition of five existing BEQ buildings and the construction of new facilities to accommodate 1,130 personnel across 565 two-person rooms. The project requires the erection of two three-story BEQ buildings at Hadnot Point, each containing 150 rooms, along with associated amenities such as laundry, multi-purpose rooms, community kitchens, administrative offices, and a recreation shelter, while also demolishing specific structures at Hadnot Point, French Creek, and New River. Work must commence within 15 days of notice to proceed and be fully completed within 1,461 calendar days, with strict adherence to Navy and Army Corps of Engineers standards including EM 385-1-1 for safety, UFGS specifications for design, and a three-phase quality control process. The contract is a fixed-price arrangement administered under FAR clauses related to prompt payment, commencement and completion of work, and equipment cost methodologies, with payment contingent upon detailed Schedule of Prices submission and acceptance by the Contracting Officer. This acquisition uses a two-phase evaluation process with Phase One assessing only Factors 1 through 4 as pass/fail gates; offerors must achieve an Acceptable rating in Technical Approach, avoid deficiencies, and meet all non-price requirements to advance. Factors 2 through 6—Experience, Safety, Technical Solution, and Small Business Utilization—are evaluated as equal in importance to each other, while Past Performance (Factor 4) holds equal weight to the combination of all four technical factors. Price is significantly less important than non-price factors in the ultimate best-value determination during Phase Two, which includes submission of the Price Proposal and additional documentation such as Small Business Participation Commitments and Subcontracting Plans. Compliance is mandatory with CMMC Level 1 self-certification under DFARS clauses, SAM registration with updated representations, Arms Control Certification, and USDA biobased materials compliance. Proposals must be submitted electronically via PIEE in PDF format under 1.9 GB, split into separate Price and Non-Price volumes, with no emailed submissions accepted. Contractors must maintain a dedicated QC organization including a Site Safety and Health Officer reporting independently from the QC Manager, conduct all testing through USACE-approved labs, submit certified payrolls and safety checklists monthly
