About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Alaska District is seeking to procure a replacement for two floating breakwaters at Bar Point Harbor in Ketchikan, Alaska. The project involves demolishing the existing 120-foot and 963-foot breakwaters and constructing new reinforced concrete float-type breakwaters anchored by chains and concrete blocks. Contractors must comply with commercial and industry standards, federal, state, and local regulations, and design breakwaters with a minimum 50-year life expectancy. The solicitation will evaluate proposals based on technical approach, past performance, and price, with non-price factors being significantly more important than price. The complete solicitation will be available for download on or after February 28, 2025, through SAM.gov, with electronic proposals to be submitted via the PIEE Solicitation Module.
This is a total small business set-aside procurement under NAICS code 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) with a $45 million size standard. The estimated contract value ranges between $25 million and $100 million, with an anticipated award date in April 2025. Construction must be performed between April 1 and October 31, with project completion required by October 30, 2026. Contractors must be registered in SAM.gov and comply with Davis-Bacon wage rates. The new breakwaters must limit transmitted waves to no greater than 1 foot on the harbor side, with specific technical requirements including post-tensioned concrete construction, minimum 6-inch wall thickness, and use of stainless steel for all exposed metal components. The project is contingent on fund availability, and all proposal preparation costs will be borne by the offeror.

DESCRIPTION OF WORK: The purpose of this project is to replace two floating breakwaters at Bar Point Harbor in Ketchikan, Alaska. Bar Point Harbor is currently protected by floating breakwaters held in place by anchor chains and anchor blocks. A small floating breakwater protects the middle entrance channel and is approximately 120 feet long and 23 feet wide. A larger floating breakwater protects the harbor and is 963 feet in length consisting of four concrete modules each 23 feet wide connected using post-tensioned wire cables. Both floating breakwaters have surpassed their estimated lifespan and need to be replaced. The project will include demolition of the existing breakwaters and replacement with new reinforced concrete float-type breakwaters. The breakwaters will be moored by chains and concrete anchor blocks. The Contractor shall comply with commercial and industry standards as well as all applicable Federal, State, and local laws, regulations and procedures.
