About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) is procuring Design-Bid-Build construction services for the USCG Offshore Patrol Cutters (OPC) Homeport Pier at Naval Station Newport in Newport, Rhode Island. The project involves demolishing an existing condemned US Navy pier and constructing a new pier to accommodate four Offshore Patrol Cutters, along with associated infrastructure including a new bulkhead, laydown area, parking, stormwater management, and utilities such as fire/potable water, electrical, telecommunications, and compressed air systems. This is an unrestricted solicitation open to full and open competition, and the source selection will utilize the best value continuum process under FAR 15.101-1, requiring offerors to submit both non-price proposals (technical and past performance) and price proposals. Large business concerns must submit a subcontracting plan prior to award. The Request for Proposal is anticipated to be issued on or about March 5, 2026, through PIEE and Sam.gov, and interested contractors should direct questions to Kristy Gerrek at kristy.l.gerrek.civ@us.navy.mil.
This procurement carries no small business set-aside designation. The estimated project magnitude ranges between $100,000,000 and $250,000,000, with the applicable NAICS code being 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) and a Small Business Size Standard of $45,000,000. The contract completion time is 1,000 calendar days after award, with the contracting officer anticipating contract award by September 2026. A Dynamic Small Business Search and Sources Sought Notice were conducted on January 20, 2026; however, the contracting officer determined there is insufficient reasonable expectation of adequate qualified Small Business responses based on market research, a determination that was concurred with by the SBA Procurement Center Representative on February 18, 2026. All prospective offerors must maintain active SAM registration to participate in this procurement.
