A firm fixed price contract will be awarded to a prime construction contractor. 

PROJECT SCOPE:  

This project is for the placement of a PVC coated chain link fence 2.5m high with 6-strands of barbed-wire to enclose the 94th, 15th brigades and US Camp Arifjan locations, as well as a "shoot house" location to isolate these areas from the Kuwait public.

PROPOSAL PROCEDURES:  The Request for Proposal (RFP) will be issued only to prime contractors.  Copies will not be released to suppliers, subcontractors and plan rooms.  The Best Value Trade-Off (BVTO) contracting method will be used to evaluate proposals.  Evaluation criteria will be stated in the RFP.  The Government may include options in the Letter RFP.  This acquisition will result in a single-fixed price construction contract awarded based on BVTO determination.

SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:  Provide your experience as a Prime Contractor completing design and construction of security fences and installation of gates: List 3-5 projects that demonstrate your recent experience and ability to perform similar scope and size projects.  Include project scope, location, magnitude, and date completed or % complete if still in progress.  Similar projects should have a magnitude of at least $5 to $10M and performed within the past 5 years.
