44OTHER TRANSACTION AUTHORITY (OTA)

OTHER TRANSACTION AUTHORITY (OTA)

10. U.S.C. 2808a has recently been updated (FY2026 NDAA) to allow OT Authority (OTA) to be used for military construction and repair projects.

OT’s (Other Transactions) are not FAR based and do not follow any of the FAR procedures. OT’s are Qualification Based selections and not Best Value or LPTA selections. In OT’s, set-asides do not apply.

OT provides maximum flexibility to structure agreements that support project specific collaboration, innovation, and speed, especially for complex or non-traditional projects.

54OTHER TRANSACTION AUTHORITY (OTA)

OTHER TRANSACTION AUTHORITY (OTA)

This project has unique and challenging requirements, and it is our intent to procure the hospital parking and optical fabrication lab requirements using this authority. Specifically, we are contemplating the use of Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) w/ OT.

USACE is the Designer of Record, and we seek a Builder to provide collaborative preconstruction services, help us determine the best path forward, and ultimately construct the requirements.

A CMAR OT contractor can help us with potential VE ideas, construction phasing, placement, and schedule options to accommodate our funding profile. We see value in having the same construction contractor who will be doing the physical construction work provide us with this feedback.

65OTHER TRANSACTIONs (OT) PROCESS

OTHER TRANSACTIONS (OT) PROCESS

1. Request for Qualifications: Post a Request for Qualifications (Request for White Paper) on SAM.gov. This requires interested firms to submit a Statement of Qualifications (White Paper) highlighting their qualifications, capabilities and why they are the best fit for this project. The submitted White Papers are evaluated to determine the most qualified. Generally, a target of 3 are selected to provide Pitch Presentations.

NOTE: The submission and evaluation criteria for this specific project is still being developed, and we would like your assistance in developing it.

2. Pitch Presentation: Invite the qualifications based most qualified firms to “pitch” their presentation. This presentation is interactive with the Government. It allows detailed conversations about proposed execution, means and methods, allowing the selected firms to describe and demonstrate their processes, innovative ideas, and overall plan to collaborate.

3. Qualifications Based Selection: The Pitch Presentations are evaluated, and a single entity is selected as the Most Highly Qualified firm for the project. Begin Phase 1.

OTHER TRANSACTION (OT) PROCESS

OTHER TRANSACTION (OT) PROCESS

4. Phase 1: After the final selection, the Government will collaborate with the contractor, establish a detailed Phase 1 preconstruction services scope, a level of effort, establish a FFP for the services, and commence those services.

At the conclusion of the preconstruction services, and 100% informed design, the Government and the selected firm will negotiate a construction agreement with the specific terms at a fair and reasonable FFP for the construction work, using open book estimating.

If a fair and reasonable price cannot be agreed to, an “Off Ramp” of the agreement can be executed and the Government can move out with other options for construction.

5. Phase 2: Bilaterally modifies the terms of construction into the agreement. Commence and complete construction. Phase 2 may include option terms.

8CONSTRUCT HOSPITAL PARKING LOT AND

RENOVATE OPTICAL FABRICATION LABORATORY

The new General Leonard Wood Army Community Hospital requires the construction of new hospital parking lots, the renovation of an Optical Fabrication Laboratory (OFL), site work and infrastructure to support the newly constructed GLWACH.

Phased Funding:

FY23: $31M (Expires September 30, 2027) FY29: $35M (Anticipated)

Magnitude: $40,000,000 to $60,000,000

POP: 1,277 Calendar Days

Advertise: 1st QTR FY27

Award: 3rd QTR FY27

SITE OVERVIEW

CONSTRUCT HOSPITAL PARKING LOT

The parking lot construction includes site grading and drainage, vehicle circulation roads and parking, pedestrian sidewalks, landscaping (including the planting of trees), site lighting, wayfinding, and video surveillance.

The contractor must always maintain 970 parking stalls during construction. The contractor must also ensure safe pedestrian access from the existing parking lots to the new hospital. A construction phasing plan and traffic management plan must be implemented to maintain a safe environment for hospital patrons and staff.

Design Maturity – 65%

11RENOVATE OPTICAL FABRICATION LABORATORY

PHASE 2

The OFL renovation includes the demolition and replacement of the west wall at the current mechanical, electrical, plumbing (MEP) room, removing all equipment inside the MEP and capping all roof penetrations. After demolition the MEP space will remain and become additional storage space for the OFL contract. A new ADA (American with Disabilities Act) compliant entrance vestibule be provided on the west side of the building where the old connection to the hospital was. The OFL also includes the renovation of a medical supply warehouse. To meet life safety codes the optical fabrication lab (OFL) space on the lower level will receive a new egress corridor and lightning protection. The facility must remain fully operational during all deconstruction, demolition, and construction efforts.

Design Maturity – 100%

DEMOLISH LEGACY HOSPITAL

The former General Leonard Army Community Hospital and infrastructure must be decommissioned, dismantled, demolished, and removed prior to the construction of the new parking lot. This work included the decommissioning of a hospital and clinic, a central utility plant, abatement of hazardous materials and environmental liabilities. All existing paving, utilities, and other site appurtenances, including a helipad, must also be demolished and removed. Approximately 60,000 to 70,000 cubic yards of excavated soil will need to be cut and transported from an adjacent location to the project site for fill.

13MARKET INTELLIGENCE QUESTIONNAIRE AND

FEEDBACK LOOP

1. Please discuss the firm’s experience using Construction Manager at Risk delivery methods, Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) contracting, open-book pricing, Other Transaction authorities, or related collaborative commercial methods of contracting.

2. Discuss any thoughts (advantages and disadvantages / concerns) about participating in a collaborative Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) Other Transaction Authority (OTA ) procurement versus traditional FAR contracts?

3. How much time do you need between the Request for Qualifications (RFQ) and the submission of your Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) / “White Paper”?

4. Please share any suggestions or information on how USACE should evaluate and execute the Qualifications Based Selection (QBS) phase using an OTA procurement?

5. What qualifications do you believe should be most important for USACE to prioritize during a down-select?

14MARKET INTELLIGENCE QUESTIONS AND

FEEDBACK LOOP

6. What level of project detail would be beneficial to share with contractors for CMAR w/ OT when preparing for the Statement of Qualifications “White paper” submittal, where there are 35-100% design documents?

-All the drawings and specs?

-Select drawings for general understanding (No detail sheets, no enlarged plans)?

-General scope summary?

7. Are there any best practices or standard commercial practices USACE should take into consideration in procuring this using CMAR OT authority?
