About this opportunity
The United States Army Corps of Engineers, Charleston District, seeks construction of two facilities at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) in North Charleston, South Carolina, with proposals due October 13. This is a new solicitation (replacing W912HP27RA001 due to technical system issues); no set-aside applies.
The primary project is the Trade and Cargo Academy (TCA), a 28,400 square-foot, two-story flood-resilient facility. Work includes hazardous material abatement and selective demolition of the existing vacant 30,000 square-foot, three-story building while preserving the main lobby and maintaining uninterrupted utility service to the occupied east wing. The TCA will use a deep precast concrete pile foundation with pile-supported slabs, heavy-duty steel frame rated for high wind and seismic loads, a modern rainscreen envelope, and fully integrated building systems (HVAC, LED lighting, security infrastructure). Interior space allocates first-floor instructional use (classrooms, auditorium, production spaces) and second-floor administrative open offices.
The secondary project is the Cargo Security and Seized Property Training Facility (CSSPTF), a one-story, 5,985 square-foot facility purpose-built for U.S. Customs and Border Protection training in vehicle and cargo inspection, evidence processing, and seized property storage. It will also sit on a deep pile foundation with pile-supported stormwater piping beneath paved areas to mitigate soil settlement.
Both facilities are located in FEMA Zone AE and engineered for a 40-year operational lifespan using durable, low-maintenance coastal materials in full compliance with current federal standards. NAICS code 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction); PSC Y1JZ (Construction of Miscellaneous Buildings).
Notice text
**Note: The sources sought originally posted as W912HP27RA001 - Due to technical issues with ACWS a new solicitation number was pulled. The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Charleston District (SAC) has a new requirement for construction of a Trade and Cargo Academy at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC). The requirement will include hazardous material abatement and selective demolition of the current vacant 30,000 SF, three-story building, while preserving the existing main lobby and ensuring uninterrupted utility service to the occupied east wing. In its place, a new 28,400 SF, two-story, flood-resilient facility will be constructed. Due to poor soil quality and its location within FEMA Zone AE, the TCA will use a deep precast concrete pile foundation with pile-supported slabs, a heavy-duty steel frame to withstand high wind/seismic demands, a modern rainscreen envelope, and fully integrated building systems (HVAC, LED lighting, and security infrastructure). The interior will have space for instructional use on the first floor (including classrooms, an auditorium, and production spaces) and administrative open offices on the second floor. FLETC also has a requirement for the construction of a new Cargo Security and Seized Property Training Facility (CSSPTF), a separate one-story 5,985 SF facility purpose-built to support U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) training. Specifically designed for hands-on vehicle/cargo inspection, evidence processing, and simulated seized property storage, this site-adapted facility will also be elevated on a deep pile foundation to comply with stringent floodplain requirements. A key engineering focus for this site is the implementation of pile-supported stormwater piping under paved areas to mitigate soil settlement risks. Both facilities are engineered for a minimum 40-year operational lifespan, integrating highly durable, low-maintenance coastal materials, and will comply fully with the latest federal energy conservation standards, DHS security criteria, and 2021 building codes. These facilities are essential for the increased student enrollment and additional courses offered supporting FLETC Charleston.
