SAM Posting Title: USACE SPK DB Construction – Waterfront Water Distribution Phase One for MOTCO, Concord, CA

SAM Posting Description:

This Sources Sought Notice is being issued for market research purposes to determine the availability, capability, and interest of small business firms for a potential Government requirement. NO SOLICITATION IS AVAILABLE; requests for a solicitation will go unanswered. No award will be made from this Notice. Responses will be used to determine potential acquisition strategies, understand current market capabilities, and to gain knowledge of potential sources.

GENERAL SCOPE:

The Military Ocean Terminal Concord (MOTCO) Waterfront Phase 1 project is meant to ensure potable water and sufficient fire flows are provided to Wharf 2, future Wharf 3.5, and other buildings on the tidal side of MOTCO. 3 existing pipes will increase in size to allow for increased flows to reach the designated wharfs and 1 pipe will be replaced at the same size as the existing one.

4300 linear feet (LF) of 12” water line will be replaced by 16” water line adjacent to Johnson Road, 3200 LF of 10” water line will be replaced by 20” water line adjacent to Mordoh Road, 2500 LF of 14” water line will be replaced by a new 14” water line adjacent to Waterfront Road, and 2400 LF of 14” water line will be replaced by 20” water line south of a Union Pacific Rail crossing Main Street.

Existing Fire Hydrants and valves connected to these water lines will need to be replaced if not installed within the last 30 years to remove outstanding lead fittings. A chlorination station is being added to this project at the intersection of Johnson Road and Kinney Boulevard. Fire flow demand requires completion of Waterfront Phase 2 as well as this project. Design work will continue in Waterfront Phase 2 upon completion of this project.

The potential requirement may result in a Firm-Fixed Price solicitation issued approximately August 2025. If solicited, the Government intends to award the anticipated requirement by September 2025.
