- Description
- This is a Sources Sought/Request for Information only. This is not a Solicitation Announcement, nor is it a Request for Proposal. This request does not obligate the government in any contract award. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New York District, is conducting preliminary research to determine the market capabilities of potential contractors to support projects in the category of multi-story, multi-family residential housing consisting of modified ISO shipping container modules. This includes the design, manufacture and implementation of a system of removable and reusable housing that can be delivered quickly and configured for densely populated urban areas within New York District boundaries, and particularly within the five boroughs of New York City. It is anticipated that the housing units contemplated as post-disaster interim housing would be occupied for 6 months to 2 years, however could become permanent. Therefore, the criteria for the housing constructed under these projects include compliance with local building codes for permanent construction. The anticipated Request for Proposal will include the requirement to produce designs, calculations, and supporting documents indicating code compliance. A single project would consist of multiple units of different types (1, 2, and/or 3-bedroom) assembled and stacked as a contiguous structure four stories high. The units will consist of modified ISO shipping containers, which are to be delivered to the site fit-out and ready for placement in the structure and utility connections. The project will include temporary foundations, stairways, walkways, and utility metering and connections. Maintenance of the structure and units for a period of approximately two years, disassembly and disposal or relocation, including restoration of the site, is also contemplated as part of the projects. This notice supports a pilot project of approximately 8-16 units. The results and evaluation of the pilot project will inform the potential use of this approach to larger scale needs, such as post-disaster interim housing. The estimated magnitude for the upcoming project is less than $1 Million. Although other modular solutions may exist, this project is limited to solutions based on standard ISO shipping container modules. All interested firms have until 07 February 2011 at 2:00pm EST to submit the requested information: Applicable NAICS Code: 332311 Prefabricated Metal Building and Component Manufacturing NOTE: The anticipated solicitation will be issued under NAICS code 332311.
