Description
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is seeking market intelligence for the construction of a modified standard design permanent party dining facility at Fort Wainwright, Alaska. The project includes food preparation and cooking areas, entrance/control area, serving, dining, dishwashing, pot wash, administration, locker area, waste disposal, receiving and loading dock, cold and dry storage, information systems, fire protection and alarm systems, Intrusion Detection System (IDS) installation, and Energy Monitoring Control Systems (EMCS) connection. The estimated acquisition magnitude is between $100,000,000 and $200,000,000. The project is expected to be completed in 36 months, with design starting in FY27 and construction starting in FY28.
Some key aspects of the project include:
• The project will be constructed using a Progressive Design-Build (PDB) approach, with a single design-build agreement.
• The project will include sustainability and energy enhancement measures.
• The project will require coordination with the Centers of Standardization for Permanent Party Dining Facilities.
• The project will require mitigation of risks associated with inter-project coordination and site handover.
• The project will require strategies to mitigate weather delays and maintain construction momentum year-round.
