Department of State 2020 Design-Build Construction Contract for Lagos, Nigeria New Consulate Compound (NCC)

The U.S. Department of State Bureau of Overseas Buildings Operations seeks to pre-qualify firms for a design-build construction contract to develop a new consulate compound in Lagos, Nigeria. Firms must demonstrate experience completing over $151 million in similar United States or diplomatic construction work. The project scope includes facilities such as a 14,685 square meter consulate, 3,545 square meter warehouse and motorpool, 673 square meter security buildings, and other site improvements. Pre-qualification submissions are due by November 6, 2019. Pre-qualified firms will then receive requests for proposals involving design documentation and fixed-price construction bids.

There is no set-aside designation for this opportunity. The estimated construction cost is between $275-345 million. Upon award, selected firms must comply with requirements to use U.S.-flag carriers for international air transportation of personnel and property to the extent service is available, as well as ship U.S.-flag cargo first and submit rated and freighted ocean bills of lading within specified timeframes. Contractors must also safeguard all project information and obtain written approval before any public release or dissemination of documents, materials, or other data related to the State Department construction work.
