Added:Jan 11, 2019 1:06 pm This is a SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE for information only. Replies by interested parties will be used by this agency for preliminary planning purposes. No proposal or contract will be awarded from this notice. No reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this notice or any follow up information requests.The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers has been tasked to solicit and award a firm-fixed price contract for Construction of a Multi-purpose Training Complex (MPTC), at Fort Irwin, CA.The National Training Center (NTC) is considered the premier training facility for the Army. Each month a new Rotational Training Unit (RTU) rolls into Fort Irwin to acquire their Brigade Combat Team (BCT) training through tough, realistic land operations with their unified action partners to prepare the BCTs and other units for combat while taking care of soldiers, their families, and civilians.Fort Irwin currently has a Multipurpose

Training Range (MPTR) which is setup by hand as necessary to train units. There is currently no reliable capability to train crews to maneuver and engage moving targets. This project is required to train and test crews and dismounted infantry squads on the skills necessary to detect, identify, engage, and defeat stationary infantry and stationary/moving armor targets in a tactical array. It will provide both armor and infantry crews the opportunity to maneuver and engage moving targets.Project Description:The MPRC satisfies the individual and collective training and qualification requirements for armor, infantry, and aviation crews/platoons. This complex supports dismounted infantry tactical live fire operations independently and with supporting vehicles. This range supports individual and collective training and qualification for platoons, sections, teams, and crews on the skills necessary to detect, identify, engage, and defeat stationary and moving armor and infantry targets in a tactical array. With all fully automated targets, the event-specific target scenarios are computer driven and scored from the range control tower. Captured audio/video are then compiled and available to the unit during the AAR.Construct a standard Multi-Purpose Range Complex (MPRC). Primary facilities include a 3-lane (6 course roads) with midpoint crossover capability MPRC, concrete bore sighting area for all machine gun and main gun with access to and from the main firing line, bore site panels, range operations control area, control tower, after action review building (large), operations/storage building (large), bleacher enclosure, covered mess, latrine (aerated vault type), ammunition loading dock, unit staging area, and bivouac area. Targetry layout for the MPRC will ensure capability to meet MPMG Heavy (0.50 cal) qualificaiton requirements.Supporting facilities include electric service, site improvements, and information systems. The existing site is limited in facility and component re-use other than utilizing the existing target berms as potential borrow sites. Measures in accordance with the Department of Defense (DoD) Minimum Antiterrorism for Buildings standards will be provided. Facilities will be designed to a minimum life of 50 years in accordance with DoD's Unified Facilities Code (UFC 1-200-02) including energy efficiencies, building envelope and integrated building systems performance. Sustainability/Energy measures will be provided. Air Conditioning (Estimated 9 Tons).Downrange Summary:Feature Type QuantityCourse Roads 6Crossover Road 1Battle Positions (Two-Tier) 18Battle Positions (Hasty) 12Stationary Infantry Targets (SIT) 303Moving Infantry Target (MIT) 12Stationary Armor Target (SAT) 60The acquisition strategy (set-aside or not) will depend upon the responses to this sources sought notice.The purpose of this notice is to gain knowledge of the experience and qualifications of the various members of the construction industry, including Large Business concerns, Small Business concerns, Hubzone small business concerns, Women-owned small business concerns, Small disadvantages business concerns; Veteran-owned small business concerns, Service Disabled Veteran owned small business concerns and 8(a) firms.The Government is seeking to identify qualified sources either singularly or as part of an assembled team under North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 236220 Commercial and Institutional Building Construction, which has a small business size standard of $36,500,000.00.In accordance with Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), subpart, 236.204, the estimated construction price range for this project is between $25,000,000 and $100,000,000.
