About this file
This document outlines a solicitation for multi-discipline architect/engineering services for the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers seeks to award a single $100 million firm-fixed price indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract for design and construction phase services to support the construction of a new 850,000 to 1 million square foot currency production facility. Key requirements include planning for material movement and storage, integrated security and automation systems, and inclusion of production equipment. Responses are due by October 4, 2019 with award anticipated in January 2020. Evaluation criteria prioritizes specialized experience in manufacturing facility design, security and automation integration, and preparation of design-bid-build or design-build requests for proposal.

PROPOSED CURRENCY
PRODUCTION Facility Bureau of Engraving and Printing
Annex building, 14th Street, SW Main building, 14th Street, SW
FOUO – FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY
New Facility Proposal Summary Initial Phase: Construct a smaller, more efficient currency production facility within the National Capital Region
Future Phase: Modernize the 426,000 sq. ft. Main Building for BEP administrative functions and other Government Agencies
Final Phase: Surplus the 796,000 sq. ft. Annex building to GSA – reduce BEP’s footprint by 27%
About BEP Existing Facilities: Washington, DC and Fort Worth, TX; plus leased warehouse in Landover, MD (265,000 sq. ft.)
Number of employees: 1,800; (DCF 1,200) + (WCF 600)
Washington, DC Facility (DCF) Main Building (1914) Annex Building (1938) Western Currency Facility (WCF) Fort Worth, Texas (1991)
Current DC Facility Issues The Main and Annex buildings are 105 and 81 years old, respectively, with aging/outdated infrastructures.
Meeting the demand for currency and technological innovation must contend with the following:
Raw material delivery and storage occurs in the Annex building and currency production is done in the Main building with minimal vault storage in both buildings.
The facility faces security and safety vulnerabilities, and general overall inefficiencies (e.g. lack of building setback, blast resistance shortfalls, minimal vehicle screening capabilities, inefficient ventilation, heating, air conditioning, and plumbing systems, etc.).
As confirmed by the GAO, the current DC facilities are not suited for modern-day currency production.
Facilities lack flexibility for new production processes required to support currency redesign efforts and new anti-counterfeit security features.
New Facility Program Logistics
Timeline: Design to construction will take approximately 10 years; new facility rolling operational start-up from 2025 to 2029. Main building renovation completion – 2030/31. Disposition of Annex building will take place after renovation of the Main building.

Program of Requirements
FOUO – FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY
Proposed Adjacencies:
The new facility will be composed of approximately ten functional areas intended to support three major lines of effort:
I: Support efficient delivery, storage, movement and process control of raw materials; specifically paper and ink materials.
II: Support efficient production of currency, centered around movement of WIP (“Work-in-Progress) between the various stages of production: Offset Printing, Intaglio Printing, Cutting and Packaging.
III: Movement, Storage and Shipment of currency for and to the Federal Reserve.
Potential BARC Site
USDA & Congress support BEP development on unused 100-acre site at the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center (BARC) in Maryland.
2018 Farm Bill provided authority to transfer land parcel to BEP.
Majority of employees live in MD (64.8%) and of those, 43% reside in Prince George’s County.
Potential BARC Site
Potential Development Information Facility would be constructed on less than 2% of BARC’s existing 6,500 acres (100 acres required).
Remediate and demolish approx. 23 abandoned facilities.
Facility approximately 800K - 1M square feet in size.
Typical height: low; approx. 25’ - 35’.
Facility access could be from Powder Mill Road – new controlled intersection.
800 space parking area (will comply with NCPC planning figures) – could be above ground garage.
0630-1500 day shift; approx. 600-700 personnel.
1430-2300 evening shift; approx. 200 personnel.
2230-0700 midnight shift; approx. 200 personnel.
Air and waste water treated onsite prior to discharge.
Storm water controlled onsite.
