The Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Southwest (NAVFAC SW) has issued a Sources Sought Synopsis (N6247326RPLAN) to identify qualified small businesses for an Architect-Engineer (A-E) Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract for Facility Planning Services. The NAICS code has been revised to 541310 (Architectural Services) with a $12.5 million small business size standard. The contract has an estimated total capacity of $30 million over five years, with task orders ranging from $10,000 to $2 million. Services include project planning documents (e.g., MILCON, UMC, Demolition), shore infrastructure master planning, and geospatial information/cadastral support. NAVFAC SW seeks firms with experience in California, Arizona, Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah. Responses, due by February 17, 2026, require SF330 forms detailing contract-specific qualifications, resumes of key personnel (including a registered planner and architect), and project experience demonstrating prime A-E work with minimum fees of $250,000 and $500,000. Firms must also provide information on their location, capacity, and employee numbers, adhering to the specified format and submission guidelines.
The Architect-Engineer Qualifications (Standard Form 330) is a crucial federal document for architect-engineer (A-E) firms to submit their professional qualifications for government contracts. This form is divided into two parts: Part I details contract-specific qualifications, including team composition, key personnel resumes, and example projects, while Part II outlines the general qualifications of a firm or branch office, covering organizational details, employee disciplines, and financial data. Federal agencies use this form to select highly qualified A-E firms based on demonstrated competence, professional qualifications, and fair and reasonable pricing, in accordance with 40 U.S.C. chapter 11 and FAR Part 36.
NAVFAC SW is conducting a Sources Sought Synopsis (N6247326RPLAN) to identify qualified Small Businesses, including 8(a), HUBZone, WOSB, and SDVOSB firms, for a potential Architect-Engineer (A-E) Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract. This market research aims to inform a decision on whether to issue a competitive set-aside or unrestricted solicitation for facility planning services at various Navy and Marine Corps installations across California, Arizona, Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah, with a focus on Southern California. The contract, estimated at $30,000,000 over five years, will cover primary A-E services like project planning documents and secondary services such as shore infrastructure master planning and GIS/cadastral support. Interested firms must submit an SF330 by December 18, 2025, detailing relevant experience, key personnel (including an AICP certified planner and a Registered Architect), and project examples with specific fee minimums and completion dates within the last five years.
