SXHT 04-5010 Construct On-Base Recreation Lodges

The Department of the Air Force Space Command is conducting market research for a construction project at Patrick Space Force Base in Florida. The project involves building three duplex structures totaling six residential rental units along the coastline, with each duplex measuring 2,700 square feet and containing two 1,350 sq. ft. units. These wood-constructed, single-story buildings will be situated on raised concrete piling foundations due to the property's location in a FEMA coastal zone. The pre-solicitation notice, posted on May 5, 2025, with responses due by May 7, 2025, seeks contractors capable of providing comprehensive construction services including civil/sitework, site utilities, landscaping, structural, architectural, mechanical, plumbing, fire protection, electrical, and telecommunications work. This project will be exclusively funded by non-appropriated funds (NAF), which means the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) will not apply to the procurement.

The contract opportunity is not designated with any specific set-aside, and it will require constructing an access road, boardwalk, and site retention features in addition to the residential structures. The project falls under NAICS Category 236116 for New Multifamily Housing Construction and PSC Category Y1JZ for Construction of Miscellaneous Buildings. While specific award values are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the complexity of the coastal construction and the comprehensive nature of required services suggest a significant project scope. The construction will be located along Florida State Road A1A, presenting potential challenges related to coastal engineering and environmental considerations. Interested contractors should carefully review the technical specifications and understand the unique requirements of building in a sensitive coastal environment.
