Repair steel columns, bays 11, 12 and 33, building 354, DAM neck annex

The Naval Facilities Engineering Command is seeking contractors to repair three significantly deteriorated steel columns in Bays 11, 12, and 33 of Building 354 at Dam Neck Annex in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Building 354, constructed in 1989 as a boat storage and repair facility, currently has restricted access for overhead bridge cranes due to column deterioration where the steel meets the existing floor slab near Grids A-12, A-13, and D-13. The scope requires contractors to design and implement repairs that will restore the columns' ability to adequately support the overhead bridge cranes and their rated capacity, including 20-ton and 5-ton hoists, while maintaining structural integrity and safety. The contract will be awarded on a lowest-price basis to qualified offerors who submit comprehensive proposal packages including price schedules, bid bonds, and various certifications. The proposal submission deadline has been extended to August 22, 2025 at 2:00 PM EDT, with all work to be completed within 456 calendar days from task order award.

This procurement is designated as a Competitive 8(a) set-aside opportunity, restricted exclusively to contractors holding positions in MACC Group ID: ML-C00075, which includes companies such as Argus CJW JV 3, Baron-Rand JV, and ERS-CYE JV II. The contract value is estimated to range between $250,000 and $500,000 for this design-build project. A mandatory site visit was conducted on July 18, 2025, and contractors have been provided with a designated laydown area measuring 27 feet by 36 feet near the building. The work will be performed at Naval Air Station Oceana's Dam Neck Annex in Virginia Beach, Virginia, with specific requirements for base access procedures and security clearances. The project focuses on selectively demolishing portions of the concrete floor to access and repair the three deteriorated columns, with repairs potentially extending up to 6 inches below the floor level or deeper as needed based on structural assessment.
