Multiple Award Construction Contract (MACC)

2. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

2.1. Scope of work. The work is required in support of the 31st Civil Engineer Squadron located on Aviano Air Base and supported Geographically Separated Units (GSUs) in Italy to supplement the Base Civil Engineer’s (BCE) capability to execute construction, facility repair, and real property maintenance projects on an as-needed basis. Task Orders (TO) will primarily address new construction, design-build, or design-bid-build, general building renovation involving civil, architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, HVAC, communication, road and pavement, and every other engineering work item required in the specific RFP including general environmental work including, but not limited to, incidental minor construction, excavation, plumbing, demolition, electrical, structural, mechanical, concrete work, and environmental (hazardous waste abatement and disposal) remedial work. All work shall be in conformance with the drawings and specifications provided by 31 CES with each task order, and shall include the furnishing of all materials, labor, plant, tools, equipment, transportation, and services (including engineering/technical design support) and incidentals thereto.

2.2. TO Project scope and types. The projects awarded under the MACC require the Contractor to produce a full design, partial design, or no design depending on the level of design already available and provided to the Contractor in the Task Order (TO) SOW. For example, a new project with no, or partial, previous design accomplished may include requirements to provide a 30/35% (minimum) design as part of the Contractor’s offer. Conversely, a project for which a 100% design is already available will only require an offer in the prescribed format. If awarded a TO for the project, the successful contractor will, as necessary, complete the design to the 100% level. This will include participating in design reviews, conducted at Aviano AB, at each design milestone (30/35%, 60%, etc.) as described in the TO SOW. Performance will be accomplished by the contractor through individual task orders. The project scope on each task order will be identified by the Government. Task orders will be awarded in accordance with (IAW) Section H (Special Contract Requirements) of this contract. A Task Order Request for Proposal (TORFP) will be issued to define specific project requirements involving design-build or build only requirements.

Task order execution will be directed by one of the following work elements:

a. Design-Build: The contractor shall be provided with a Statement of Work (SOW).

With the SOW, the contractor will initiate and complete design-build project execution IAW task order requirements.

b. Design-Build with Partial Design Provided: The contractor shall be provided with a previously accomplished 15% - 35% preliminary or intermediate design effort, including available drawings, specifications, and/or design analysis, and shall complete a detailed design per the task order. Construction shall commence upon approval of design and direction by the Government and be completed IAW task order requirements.

c. Construction Effort Only: The contractor shall be provided a complete design document package to execute the construction requirement only IAW the task order. The package will include the SOW, drawings, technical specifications, and any other preliminary data.
