REQUEST FOR INTEREST

Potential Construction through Enhanced Use Lease of a portion of

Corry Station, Naval Air Station Pensacola, Escambia County, Florida

February 27, 2025

I. SUMMARY

1. DESCRIPTION. The Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Southeast, in support of the Department of the Navy (“DON” or “Government”), is seeking information from interested entities regarding potential construction through a long-term ground lease with DON under 10 U.S.C. § 2667 of an approximately 230,000 square foot (SF) facility to support the Navy’s mission and operations on approximately 37 acres of land located at Corry Station, Naval Air Station (“NAS”)

Pensacola, Florida, (the site). Any interested responders may complete and submit a

Request for Interest (“RFI”) response in support of its proposed project concept(s) for the site no later than March 17, 2025. The DON intends to use the RFI responses to further evaluate its best courses of action.

2. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INTEREST ONLY. This RFI is a market research tool issued to determine the availability and adequacy of potential business ideas for the DON’s information and planning purposes. This is not a Request for Proposals

(“RFP”) or a promise to issue another solicitation type in the future. This RFI does not obligate the Government to offer the property or to purchase services from any responder, and the DON reserves the right to cancel this RFI at any time. Further, the

DON is not at this time seeking proposals and will not accept unsolicited proposals.

By participating in the RFI process, all agree to hold the United States of America, its officers, employees, and advisors harmless from all claims, liabilities, and costs related to all aspects of this RFI. Under no circumstances shall the United States of

America be liable for any costs, real estate brokerage commissions, finder’s fees, or other forms of compensation related in any way to activities undertaken by any person(s) as a result of or in response to the RFI; all costs incurred with responding to this RFI will be solely at the interested party’s expense. Not responding to this RFI does not preclude participation in any future solicitation or RFP, if one is issued.

3. Respondents with questions about this RFI must submit all questions in writing on a

Pre-Proposal Inquiry (“PPI”) Form. A copy of the PPI Form is included as

Attachment A. Inquiries must be submitted on the PPI Form via e-mail to the Real

Estate Contracting Officer’s (“RECO”) representatives at the following addresses:

darlene.i.griggs.civ@us.navy.mil and michael.p.bailey.civ@us.navy.mil. Pre-proposal inquiries will not be accepted later than seven (7) calendar days prior to the due date of the RFI. The Government will respond to properly submitted pre-proposal inquiries on the Federal Business Opportunities (“FBO”) website once each week, no later than close of business Thursday.

II. BACKGROUND

1. PROJECT OBJECTIVES. The DON is exploring possible scenarios to utilize an enhanced use lease under 10 USC 2667, a land exchange under 10 USC 2869, or another statutory authority available to DON, of less than approximately 37 acres at

Corry Station, Naval Air Station Pensacola, Florida. As consideration for the property, the DON seeks a facility of approximately 230,000 SF and associated parking on a portion of the 37 acre parcel.

a. 230,000 SF facility breakdown is as follows: Secure space will be approximately 120,000 SF and unclassified space will be approximately

110,000 SF.

2. SITE LOCATION. The site is located at Corry Station, Naval Air Station

Pensacola, Florida, and is comprised of approximately 37 acres as shown on

Attachment B.

III. RFI RESPONSE

1. RFI REQUIREMENT. The DON requests each responder to prepare an RFI response addressing potential construction, redevelopment, or utilization ideas for the site.

2. ADDITIONAL FACTORS. These factors should be considered in the RFI response:

i. There is no fee transfer of property; ownership of the premises remains with the U.S. Government.

ii. The premises do not have utilities. There will be no connection to Navy-owned utilities. Site development would require utility connections as follows:

a. Florida Power and Light (FPL) for electric,

b. Emerald Coast Utilities Authority (ECUA) for water and wastewater, and

c. Pensacola Energy for natural gas.

iii. Government Use

iv. Secure space will be constructed in accordance with Sensitive

Compartmental Information Facility (SCIF) and Special Access Program

Facility (SAPF) requirements of Intelligence Community Directive (ICD)

705, Intelligence Community Standard (ICS) 705, and Committee on

National Security Systems Advisory Memorandum (CNSSAM)

TEMPEST requirements and standards.

v. The proposed facility will need to support occupancy for approximately

1,150 personnel.

vi. The premises will include parking for 1,150 personnel, plus an additional

5 percent for visitor parking.

vii. Any actions require compliance with the National Environmental

Protection Act, which could result in the preparation of an Environmental

Assessment or an Environmental Impact Statement.

viii. Any actions require compliance with all applicable Department of Defense engineering and construction guidance, such as the Unified Facilities

Construction (UFC) and other applicable guidance.

ix. The site is located outside of the NAS Pensacola Air Installation

Compatible Use Zone (“AICUZ”). Development of the site should consider building height(s) and design that fit within the character of existing facilities at Corry Station. Concepts could include shared-use of the facility by non-DON occupants whose missions and operations are compatible with the DON.

IV. SUBMISSION OF RFI RESPONSE

1. RFI RESPONSE (DUE NO LATER THAN March 24, 2025). Responders will be invited to prepare an RFI response in Microsoft Word or PDF compatible format due no later than 5:00 PM EST on March 28, 2025. All costs associated with any RFI response shall be at the responder’s sole expense and shall not be reimbursed by the

DON. Please be advised that all submissions become Government property and will not be returned. Responses may be submitted via e-mail to darlene.i.griggs.civ@us.nav.mil and michael.p.bailey.civ@us.navy.mil. Responses submitted by email are limited to 7MB in size.

Jacksonville, FL 32212-0030

2. PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. Proprietary information included in the RFI response, if any, should be minimized and MUST BE CLEARLY MARKED. To aid the Government, please segregate proprietary information.
