Range 26 Moving Armor Target Wall at Fort McCoy, WI

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Louisville District is soliciting design and construction services for a Moving Armor Target (MAT) wall replacement at Range 26, Fort McCoy, Wisconsin. The project requires demolition of an existing timber pile wall and construction of a new concrete block gravity wall approximately 510 feet in length, with work including associated earthwork, site surveys, design submittals, and reconnection of existing electrical equipment. Contractors must maintain the existing target track and electrical systems while returning the site to its original topographical condition using pre-cast concrete blocks provided by Fort McCoy at no cost. The solicitation is restricted to holders of specific Northeast Region Small Business Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) pool contracts numbered W912QR21D0056 through W912QR21D0060 and W912QR21D0085 through W912QR21D0086. The proposal submission deadline is September 11, 2025, with Amendment 0001 updating wage determination rates for Wisconsin.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, limiting participation to qualified small business contractors holding the specified MATOC pool contracts. The work will be performed at Fort McCoy, Wisconsin, under a design-build contract structure that encompasses comprehensive site restoration requirements including compliance with environmental guidelines and invasive species restrictions. The project timeline involves multiple phases from initial site surveys through final restoration, with contractors required to match pre-construction topographical conditions and berm geometry. Wage rates are governed by Davis-Bacon Act requirements as detailed in the updated wage determination, with rates varying by trade classification and ranging from approximately $24 to $60 per hour plus fringe benefits. The solicitation emphasizes precise reconstruction of existing range infrastructure while maintaining operational capability of the target systems throughout the construction process.
