This is a Sources Sought document issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) in partnership with the United States Merchant Marine Academy (USMMA) for the Crowninshield/Cressy Pier project as part of the USMMA Campus Modernization Program located in New York. The project involves the design and construction of a new pier structure to be built within the footprint of the former Cressy Pier at the Academy's waterfront facility. The scope of work encompasses creating a premier facility that will showcase USMMA as the nation's top maritime training institution while protecting the basin, reducing seawall degradation, and providing additional academic space. This commercial and institutional building construction project is part of a comprehensive campus modernization initiative that includes upgraded barracks, academic buildings, training facilities, athletic facilities, and waterfront spaces across the entire USMMA campus.

The document serves as a preliminary market research tool to identify qualified contractors capable of delivering this specialized waterfront construction project. The sources sought announcement allows potential bidders to express interest and capabilities prior to the formal solicitation process, enabling USACE and USMMA to assess market availability and contractor qualifications. This initiative supports the Academy's strategic mission to enhance its physical infrastructure and training capabilities while addressing critical waterfront infrastructure needs that benefit both the institution and the surrounding maritime environment.
