About this file

This solicitation is for an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity multiple award construction contract to provide large general construction projects primarily in the Hampton Roads Area of Responsibility in Virginia. The Naval Facilities Engineering Command is seeking contractors to complete design-build and design-bid-build projects including new construction, renovations, and repairs. Offerors can submit proposals at any time during the five-year period of performance. Awarded contracts will have a minimum and maximum ordering value of $500,000 and $100 million respectively, and a five-year ordering period. This multiple award contract aims to reduce acquisition lead time for small to mid-sized projects in the Hampton Roads region.
