A majority of the work will be located within Eastern Area, Oklahoma (Fort Gibson, Tenkiller, Eufaula, Wister, Robert S. Kerr, Webbers Falls, and McClellan Kerr), but may encompass work in other states covered by the geographic region included in the SWD boundaries. Contracts will be Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Multiple Award Task Order Contracts (MATOCs), with a base period plus four one-year option periods, for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Southwestern Division (SWD) for design-build, design-bid-build, and construction services with an estimated workload value of $15 million. Scope of work includes, but is not limited to, construction, renovation, repairs and alterations, and operations activities. The contracts are not only intended to execute construction, design-build and design-bid-build, but to provide a timely response to remediation of real and personal property facilities, e.g., maintenance, repair, alterations, and minor construction situations relating to, but not limited to electrical, plumbing, carpentry, painting, sheet rock repair, excavate/filling ditches, and other minor construction activities associated with the above mentioned work. It is the intent of the Tulsa District to issue one (1) solicitation for award of at least three (3) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Multiple Award Task Order Contracts (MATOCS). The resulting contract(s) will be negotiated and awarded with a base contract period of one year with up to four one year option periods, and a total MATOC pool value of not more than the estimated $15 million. The contract(s) shall continue as option periods are exercised at the sole discretion of the Government for a time period not to exceed 5 calendar years in total, or upon obligation of the total value of the contract, whichever occurs first. The minimum guaranteed amount of the base year is $1,000; there is no minimum guarantee for any subsequent option years. Individual task orders will be funded with the appropriate type of money which may include Operations and Maintenance (O&M), Military Constructions, and/or American Recovery and Re-Investment Act (ARRA) funding. A majority of the funding is expected to be O&M. Any task orders issued with ARRA funding will meet the advertisement requirements through FedBizOpps and the ARRA information website prior to the RFP being issued to the contractors. In addition, all task order information will be published similarly as required by the ARRA guidelines.
