C--A-E SERVICES FOR MULTI-DISCIPLINE MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS DESIGN AND OTHER ARCHITECTURAL-ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR MODIFICATIONS TO STATE ROAD 90, MODIFIED DELIVERIES TO EVERGLADES NATIONAL PARK

THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY. DO NOT REGISTER AS A PLANSHOLDER. Under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, the US Army Corps of Engineers intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with EAC Architects and Engineers, LLP for a new Architect-Engineer contract, to provide Architect and Engineering Services during construction of Modifications to State Road 90, Modified Deliveries to Everglades National Park, Tamiami Trail. The contract will be an indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract for a period of one year from date of award with options to extend for four additional years, not to exceed five years. Work will be assigned by negotiated task orders. While the estimated dollar amount per year is $1,000,000.00, the actual obligation per year may be greater than or less than $1,000,000.00. Maximum order limit is $5,000,000.00 for the life of the contract. This Justification and Authorization is necessitated by the fact that we do not have sufficient capacity to award the required services under the existing A/E contract with EAC. Specifically, SAJ will require EAC to provide professional engineering services by individuals that are qualified to oversee construction of roads and bridges in the State of Florida to ensure the designers intent is met to complete the Modifications to State Road 90, Modified Deliveries to Everglades National Park, Tamiami Trail. EAC is the Designer of Record of the design of the Tamiami Trail Modifications Project. They performed the Design Reports and the plans and specifications (P&S) design of roadway improvements, bridge, road removal, and culvert extensions for Tamiami Trail. Plans and Specifications were completed to the final phase for construction advertisement. To date, EAC has carried the Tamiami Trail to award and into EDC. Due to the performance requirements of the original contract, EAC has accumulated knowledge and expertise on this project that is not available from any other firm. It would be very costly to the Government, both financially and technically, to develop a new consultant's knowledge base of the Tamiami Trail Modifications Project. Interested concerns should contact Claurice Dingle at 904-232-3736; (or email at [email protected]) on or before 29 January 2010 for information on submitting documentation demonstrating their qualifications to accomplish this project.
