The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has issued a Sources Sought Notice, W9127824R0048, to gauge interest from contractors for a two-phase design-build and construction project aimed at supporting the Defense Health Agency (DHA) in the Western Region of the United States. This initiative seeks contractors for Firm-Fixed-Price Contracts to provide construction and repair services for military medical facilities and research laboratories, with an overall anticipated budget of $249 million over five years. Contractors must possess expertise in working within active healthcare settings, ensuring minimal disruption to operations and compliance with strict safety protocols, including infection control and accreditation standards. The scope includes a range of tasks from minor repairs to significant renovations across various facility types within designated states, including Alaska, California, and Arizona, among others. Responses to the notice are sought to evaluate contractor capabilities, business classifications, and potential interest in a consolidated multi-state contract. The notice emphasizes that this is purely a market research effort, with no contract awards stemming directly from it. Submission guidelines specify response length and content to facilitate the evaluation of potential contractor qualifications and capacities.
