About this file

This Government Pre-Award Inquiry Form is for the N69450-24-R-PW05 NAS JAX EVSE Infrastructure project at Naval Air Station Jacksonville. The design-build project involves replacing the Looney Plaza, with key specifications including demolishing existing permeable paver systems and quartz pavers, replacing them with processed road gravel, and implementing a Low Impact Development (LID) feature. The project requires no electrical work, backflow installation, or commissioning, and architectural railings will not be disturbed.

Key dates include a proposal due date of 12/18/2025 at 10:00 AM, with a 90-calendar-day proposal acceptance period and a new site visit scheduled for 12/2/2025 at 10:00 AM EST. Contractors must perform a contaminated soil survey due to soil disturbance, cut expansion joints at 5 feet by 5 feet within a 20 ft by 20 ft checkerboard pattern, and replace any damaged landscaping features. The project allows the Site Superintendent to also serve as the Site Safety and Health Officer, but requires a separate Quality Control Manager.
