- Description
- Pre-solicitation Synopsis This is a PRE-SOLICITATION SYNOPSIS; it is not a solicitation announcement; thus, this synopsis neither solicits for proposals nor bids and no contract will be awarded based on this synopsis. The purpose of this synopsis is to alert the public (especially the Small Businesses) that the Maritime Administration (MARAD), which is an agency of the United States Department of Transportation, intends to procure construction services for the repairs of its Poland Street Wharf, which is located in New Orleans, LA. The procurement will be set-aside only for Small Businesses. The Invitation for Bids (IFB) and its concomitant construction-ready repair-drawings will be issued around the middle of February 2012; the bid-opening date will be specified in the IFB. In addition, MARAD will utilize a Firm Fixed Price Contract for the above-mentioned procurement. The duration of the project is 90 days (Base Period) with no Option Period. The estimated magnitude of the repairs in terms of physical characteristics (scope) and estimated price range is between $1 million and $5 million. The appropriate NAICS code for this procurement is 237990 with a small business size standard of $33.5 Million. MARAD owns the Poland Street Wharf facility, which is located in New Orleans Louisiana. This facility consists of one pier that is made up of five berths, which were built at different times with differing construction techniques. Berths 1 and 2 were constructed between 1923 and 1928; Berths 3 and 4 were constructed between 1941 to 1942 and Berth 5 was constructed in 1940's. Furthermore, Berths 1, 2, and 3 are the permanent lay berths for the Cape Kennedy and Cape Knox RRF vessels. However, Berths 4 and 5 are leased by the Port and used for routine break-bulk cargo operations. An engineering survey to determine and document the condition of the existing structure of all the above-mentioned Berths has been completed by an Architectural/Engineering (A&E) Firm and the survey shows that all the berths are in need of both Critical Repairs and Life Extension project/repairs. Construction-ready repair drawings have been completed for the critical repairs and technical specifications have been completed for the life extension projects based on the survey results. Specifically, MARAD intends to use the above-mentioned IFB to procure only Critical Repair services (not Life Extension Repairs) and they are as follows: (a) repairs of cracks, spalls, exposed joints and exposed rebar of Berths 4 and 5 (above-deck repairs); (b) mechanical Repairs of Berths 1, 2, and 3 (miscellaneous repairs); (c) electrical Repairs of Berths 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5; (miscellaneous repairs) (d) repair of concrete fender beam of Berth 4 (below-deck repairs); (e) repair of diagonal and horizontal braces of Berth 4 (below-deck repairs); (f) repair of steel piling (with section loss) of Berth 5 (below-deck repairs); and (g) repair of concrete frontal beam of Berth 5 (below-deck repairs).
