Industry Day for USCG Waterfront Optimization, Coast Guard Yard, Curtis Bay MD

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) invites industry representatives to attend an Industry Day to be hosted at the US Coast Guard Yard. This event will provide an overview of the design and construction of the waterfront revitalization project for the US Coast Guard Yard, Curtis Bay, Maryland. This Industry Day is intended to provide a forum for engaging with industry experts to gather and share information about this project and its planned acquisition strategy.

The first hour of the engagement on 22 Oct will be to provide a general overview of the project. One-on-one time slots with USACE and USCG representatives are available for sign-up on 22 Oct and 23 Oct. Given space constraints, USACE will be limiting attendance to two (2) representatives per company. More information is to come.

The U.S. Coast Guard has a requirement to improve the waterfront infrastructure at the US Coast Guard Yard located in Curtis Bay, Maryland to plan for the maintenance and repair of a new class of cutters. The USACE Baltimore District plans to procure the design and construction services as a competitive design-build procurement that seeks to optimize the budget in terms of quality, scope, durability, and life-cycle cost.

The budget, or the design and construction cost ceiling, will be disclosed and evaluation will focus on ‘mission critical’ factors and innovative betterments and enhancements within the budget with award to a best solution and not the ‘cheapest’ proposal. Participation in this Industry Day does not constitute a commitment by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to award a contract, nor does it provide any advantage in the competitive procurement process. Specific information is forthcoming, and this Special Notice will be amended to reflect the changes. This includes details regarding agenda and registration process.
