About this opportunity
This pre-solicitation notice is for the modification of platforms in the Vehicle Assembly Building High Bay-3 at NASA's John F. Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The work includes fabricating and erecting new movable platforms weighing approximately 300kips that will support operations for Block 1B. Additional scope involves reinforcement of existing building members and construction of new floors, walls and ceilings. The solicitation is expected to be released in April 2021 with a period of performance of approximately 1095 calendar days. The anticipated award amount is greater than $10 million and the NAICS code is 238120 for Structural Steel and Precast Concrete Contractors.
There is no set-aside designated for this procurement. The estimated value ranges from $10-16.5 million. Contractors must be screened by the Defense Logistics Agency prior to receiving controlled technical data, and all work must be completed during operational downtimes between launches while allowing for dual occupancy in the work areas. Approximately 100 existing steel frame members ranging between 40-55ft long will be reinforced.

PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE for Modify Vehicle Assembly Building High Bay-3 (HB3) Platforms for Block 1B
NASA/John F. Kennedy Space Center plans to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) for 80KSC021R0020, Modify Vehicle Assembly Building High Bay-3 (HB3) Platforms for Block 1B, John F. Kennedy Space Center, Florida.
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 238120, Structural Steel and Precast Concrete Contractors with a size standard of $16.5 million.
This is an unrestricted procurement. All responsible sources may submit an offer.
Estimated solicitation release date for this requirement is mid – late August 2021, with a project period of performance of approximately 1003 calendar days. Estimated award amount is anticipated to be greater than $10,000,000.
One or more of the items under this acquisition is subject to the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement and Free Trade Agreements.
SCOPE OF WORK
The work includes but is not limited to the following:
Contractor shall provide the necessary resources to fabricate and erect new platforms in the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB). Each of these platforms weigh approximately 300kips, and consist of W44 rail beams that support a welded steel structure (approximately 38ft by 60ft) that can move along the length of the W44s, the mechanical, electrical, and control systems that drive the platform movement, as well as lighting, communications wiring, and fire suppression systems that support the operations and emergency egress. The W44’s will be welded to a large machined corbel structure, which attaches to a track system on the facility columns, by a set of 4-inch diameter pins. In addition, new floors and rooms, walls and ceilings will be constructed in the building. Other ancillary work on building system modification/extension is included for the following: fire suppression pipes and valves, fire alarm, gaseous Nitrogen and gaseous Helium tubing (>5,000psi), and electrical power. The VAB is a greater than 500ft tall steel frame structure with a cavernous interior: all of the above installation scope will be completed at heights ranging from about 280ft to about 450ft above ground, requiring extensive experience with personnel access, material delivery, and fit up/ bolting/ welding materials at such heights. This is an operational facility and construction will be completed in the operational downtime between launches, and dual occupancy of the work space is anticipated.
DISCLAIMER:
No solicitation exists at this time; therefore, do not request a copy of the solicitation. If a solicitation is released it will be synopsized in the Beta.Sam.Gov Website. It is the potential offeror’s responsibility to monitor these sites for the release of any solicitation or synopsis.
NOTE: If a solicitation is issued, the Specifications and Drawings for this project will have an Export Determination of EAR 99 – EAR Controlled – ITAR Controlled - and will be considered controlled documents. Therefore, download of documents won’t be permitted until requesters have been cleared through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). Please begin DLA registration immediately since clearance could take a couple of weeks. All contractors that will be interested in receiving drawings and specifications for this project will have to ensure they have been screened by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Joint Certification Program (JCP) by completing a DD Form 2345. To complete the DD Form 2345, go to the website at
https://www.dla.mil/HQ/LogisticsOperations/Services/JCP/SpecificDD2345Instructions.aspx. This process does take time and the Government encourages contractors to start as soon as possible.
If a contractor has been previously screened by DLA they can verify if their status is still active by utilizing their cage code at: https://public.logisticsinformationservice.dla.mil/jcp/search.aspx
Notice is hereby provided that access to the drawings and specifications will be limited to offerors certified by DLA.
