ARCHITECTURAL & ENGINEERING SERVICES IN SUPPORT OF

REAL PROPERTY PLANNING, PROGRAMMING AND MANAGEMENT SUPPORT

12 December 2016 (Version 9)

1.0 INTRODUCTION.

The United States (U.S.) Army Engineering and Support Center (Huntsville Center) is a Regional Planning Support Center for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Huntsville Center is also a Center of Expertise for DD Forms 1391 and Project Definition Report/Engineering Form 3086 support. Huntsville Center’s worldwide scope creates opportunities for enterprise-level support and the ability to coordinate complex projects across multiple geographic regions and organizations. Customers may include all government agencies. Recent facility and installation planning and programming customers include the Office of the Chief of Staff for Installation Management, Army Reserve Installation Management Directorate, Installation Management Command, Defense Health Agency, Space and Missile Defense Command, Network Enterprise Technology Command, Army Cyber Command, Army Materiel Command, U.S. Navy, various installation garrisons and other Corps of Engineers Districts.

In 2012, Huntsville Center awarded four Architect-Engineer (A-E) Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) with a total programmatic capacity of $45 million and a period of performance of one base year and four one-year options. The awardees offer highly specialized services to provide technical and planning support. The overall planning and programming supports actions that address the full spectrum of military master planning documentation to include DD Form 1391, Preparation Planning Charrette Process and Engineering Form 3086.

Huntsville Center is a Center of Expertise for these forms which are used to submit requirements and justifications in support of funding requests for military construction to Congress.

Technical support includes but is not limited to master planning, identifying and quantifying facility requirements, engineering analyses, geospatial projects, facility management support, facility utilization studies, land use requirements studies and analyses, environmental documentation, energy studies, and project programming and procurement documents. Design, construction and repair services are excluded from this acquisition. These activities may involve projects on any government installation. These objectives shall be achieved through the implementation of an ID/IQ contract.

Task orders will be awarded detailing technical requirements, deliverables and schedules. The A- E shall upon task order award, perform services to meet the requirements of the order as well as complying with all applicable Status of Forces Agreements (SOFA), Federal, State and Local laws, regulations, agreements, Memorandums of Understanding (MOU) and Memorandums of Agreement (MOA) and policies.

2.2 LOCATION OF WORK.
