BACKGROUND The anticipated IDIQ MATOC will provide Design-Build (D-B) Construction Services not to exceed $900 million over the next five years supporting the AFMS Healthcare Facilities Modernization Program. The AFMS is responsible for the programming, planning, design, construction, and initial outfitting of new and renovated US Air Force medical treatment facilities worldwide. They are chartered with modernizing hospitals, clinics, medical office buildings, warehouses, veterinary clinics, and wellness centers. To meet these requirements, the AFMS requires a contracting vehicle that utilizes experienced firms who are able to rapidly respond to multiple requirements, meet constrained project schedules, and deliver a variety of D-B construction and renovation products. This contract vehicle will enable the AFMS to standardize execution, minimize acquisition lead times and costs, work multiple projects concurrently, and complete projects on schedule. REQUIREMENT Under this contract, the contractor shall provide all necessary labor, material, supervision, and equipment for the design, construction, repair, and/or alteration to sustain, restore, and or modernize clinics, hospitals, administrative buildings, health facilities, warehouses, veterinary clinics, ancillary facilities, and wellness centers, using Military Construction (MILCON) and Operations and Maintenance (O&M) processes. Although the majority of this requirement will be performed within the continental United States (CONUS), interested sources should be aware that there are potential projects which would be performed outside CONUS (OCONUS). These potential projects could include the countries of Portugal, Japan, United Kingdom, Korea, Turkey, and others. The scope of work for the resultant contract will primarily be associated with the renovation of existing facilities, but may also include major repair and new construction. Work may include, but is not limited to, replacement, restoration or modernization of hospitals, clinics, medical administration buildings, ambulatory health facilities, medical warehouses, medical labs, biological engineering labs, dental clinics, veterinary clinics, wellness centers, and any other buildings connected to/associated with US Air Force health facilities worldwide. Work may include restoration and/or modernization of HVAC, medical gas, plumbing, electrical, elevators, building envelope, fire protection, interior renovation, terrorism/force protection, and exterior site and systems work such as utilities infrastructure, roadways, sidewalks, parking lots, landscaping, irrigation, etc. The contract will also provide for associated initial outfitting (IO) services to outfit new or newly-renovated medical facilities, to be performed in two steps: Step 1 - Initial Outfitting Transition (IO-T), to include project management, transition/relocation planning, planning/design and technical support, product selection/planning, inventory identification, storage, movers, supervision, and budget development, tracking and adherence; and Step 2 - Initial Outfitting Commodities (IO-C), to include procurement of the product, installation labor, transportation, tools, materials, storage and freight, case goods, furniture and furnishings equipment, artwork, signage, information technology/communication and resource protection systems. The IO effort will also include the move, reconfiguration, teardown, salvage, and/or disposal of existing products and inventory storage and installation of reusable systems furniture. The objective is for the contractor to provide turn-key services for the design and construction/renovation of facilities, as well as the delivery of medical equipment, furniture, case goods, communication equipment, information technology hardware and software, and furnishings. These services must include cradle to grave project management services, design services, procurement of furniture and medical/clinical case goods, warehousing capabilities, delivery, installation, inventory, warranty services, commissioning and training on all new equipment/furniture/systems. Any resultant contract will be for a period of one (1) base year, and four (4) option years, not to exceed five (5) years. The pool size (number of contracts that may be awarded under the MATOC) is anticipated to be three (3) or more. Each contract within the pool will share the total contract capacity estimated at $900 million over the five year period. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 236220 - Commercial and Institutional Building Construction.
