About this file
This document is a pre-proposal site visit presentation for a federal construction contract concerning the Rio de la Plata Flood Control Project in Dorado and Toa Baja, Puerto Rico. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is soliciting construction services under Solicitation No. W51DQV26RA002 for Supplemental Contract 1, which represents approximately $300,000,000 to $400,000,000 in estimated construction value. The contract type is firm-fixed-price Design-Bid-Build Construction using FAR Part 15 negotiations with full and open competition. Proposals must be submitted electronically via the Procurement Integrated Enterprise Environment (PIEE) by July 17, 2026, at 10:00 AM (AST). The estimated period of performance is 1,619 calendar days following the Notice to Proceed, with liquidated damages assessed at $23,940 per calendar day of delay. The contractor must perform 30% of the work with their own forces. A bid guarantee of 20% of the bid price or $3,000,000, whichever is less, is required, along with payment and performance bonds equal to the total bid price within 10 days of award. A subcontracting plan is mandatory for other than small business firms.
The project involves comprehensive river engineering and infrastructure work including approximately 1.78 million cubic meters of channel excavation, 772,000 cubic meters of levee fill placement, 160,000 cubic meters of scour protection stone placement, four concrete culvert structures (two on the west levee, two on the east levee), maintenance roads on levee crests, drainage ditches, and utility relocations for water lines, sewer lines, and electrical distribution systems. Key construction considerations include coordination with two municipalities, concurrent construction projects, traffic maintenance coordination with state agencies (DTOP and PRHTA), communication with La Plata Dam operators regarding water releases, and seismic remediation of soft soils through foundation treatment options. Technical inquiries must be submitted via ProjNet (Bidder Inquiry Key: H7UFYV-N7MD93) with closure ten calendar days prior to bid closing. All amendments must be acknowledged in block 19 of Standard Form 1442, with bidders required to monitor SAM.gov and PIEE for published amendments. The site visit will depart from Gazebo Rio de la Plata in Dorado, with four planned stops at specified GPS coordinates to view the project area.
