About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Charleston District is soliciting Architecture and Engineering (A&E) services for design updates to the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) and Border Patrol Trade & Cargo Academy building, as well as the Cargo Security & Seized Property Training Facility building located in Charleston, South Carolina. The primary objective is to update previously completed design work to ensure compliance with current codes and regulations, as well as to recertify the Biddability, Constructability, Operability, Environmental and Sustainability (BCOES) Reviews. The scope requires extensive knowledge of the original design, and the selected contractor must incorporate recent changes in applicable codes and criteria per UFC 1-200-011-3.1 and ER 415-1-11 standards. The base period of performance is 6 months for the design update phase, with design drawings and updated certifications to be signed and sealed upon completion. This Pre-Solicitation Notice was posted on November 18, 2025, with a due date of December 2, 2025 for interested parties to express their capability and interest.
No set-aside designation has been applied to this procurement. SVT is identified as the incumbent contractor, having previously completed the original design and engineering work under task order 70LCHS18FPFB00137. Following the design update phase, an optional 18-month period of performance has been included for Construction Phase Services, which will encompass review of construction contract submittals, shop drawings, design clarifications, site visits, and progress meetings. While specific budget information is not disclosed in this Pre-Solicitation Notice, the contract structure indicates a base period of 6 months plus an 18-month option period, suggesting a comprehensive engagement that extends from design updates through the construction administration phase.
Notice text

The design and engineering work for FLETC Charleston Trade and Cargo Academy in addition to the Seized Property Training Facility was completed under task order 70LCHS18FPFB00137. It was awarded to SVT to provide all design and engineering services to prepare construction contract documents for the FLETC in Charleston, SC. The scope of this requirement is for an update to the currently completed design to comply with current Codes and Regulations as well as Recertifications of the Biddability, Constructability, Operability, Environmental and Sustainability (BCOES) Reviews. The base period of performance for this action is 6 months. Once the construction contract is awarded, technical expertise for Construction Phase Services, including the review of construction contract submittals, shop drawings and responding to questions and clarifications on the design documents, construction site visits and progress meetings will be required. The option period of performance for this portion of the requirement will be 18 months.
Because of the number of months that will pass between the design completion and the new solicitation, the design must incorporate changes in applicable codes and regulations. In accordance with UFC 1-200-011-3.1, projects that have a delay of more than 18 months must be reevaluated to determine if any design revision is needed to comply with current codes and criteria. The updated design must then be signed and sealed. The Biddability, Constructability, Operability, Environmental and Sustainability Review and Certification per ER 415-1-11 must also be performed for the updated design. These actions require an extensive knowledge of the design. In addition, any firm performing this work would now be required to bear Architectural & Engineering Design Liability for the design.
