Contractors participating in this solicitation must be U.S. firms. Any joint-venture must be with another U.S. firm.

Responses are desired from firms who can demonstrate recent experience and good past performance in the construction of similar facilities. The qualifications of the construction firm along with the submitted price will be evaluated by the Government and award will be made to the overall best value trade-off.

The estimated magnitude of construction is between $25,000,000 and $100,000,000. The maximum contract duration is 630 calendar days from the issuance of the notice to proceed (NTP). The North American Industrial Classification System Code (NAICS) is 236220.
