Two Phase Design-Build and Construction IDIQ MATOC in Support of DHA, Northern Region

The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Mobile has issued a Special Notice for a Two Phase Design-Build and Construction Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) in support of the Defense Health Agency's Northern Region. The contract opportunity is designed to consolidate construction and repair services for healthcare facilities across 19 states and territories. Published on January 29, 2025, with a submission deadline of February 5, 2025, the notice follows Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) requirements for contract consolidation notifications. The solicitation falls under the Commercial and Institutional Building Construction NAICS category and specifically targets construction of hospitals and medical facilities. The overall contract will have a total program capacity of $99 million over a five-year ordering period.

The objective of this MATOC is to streamline acquisition processes and provide consistent, high-quality design-build services for medical facilities ranging from $500,000 to $5 million in scale. The government intends to award approximately six contracts, with three reserved specifically for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), creating opportunities for diverse contractor participation. Eligible contractors will be expected to provide comprehensive design-build services for various medical infrastructure projects, including medical centers, community hospitals, clinics, dental facilities, veterinary facilities, medical office buildings, research laboratories, and medical warehouses. The procurement strategy emphasizes cost savings, improved quality control, and reduced administrative burden through a consolidated approach. Contractors interested in participating must carefully review the Determination and Findings (D&F) document and ensure they meet the technical and administrative requirements for healthcare facility construction in the Northern Region. The two-phase design-build method suggests a structured approach that will likely involve initial qualifications screening followed by detailed project-specific proposals.
