\n\n","text":"SUBJECT: Sources Sought (RFI) – Fort Wolters H Barracks, Mineral Wells, Texas\n\n• DISCLAIMER. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) / SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE ONLY. This notice is issued solely for market intelligence, information, and planning purposes. It does not constitute a Request for Proposals (RFP), a Request for Qualifications (RFQ), or a commitment by the Government to write, issue, or award an agreement. The Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in response to this notice. All response costs will be borne solely by the interested party.\n\n• PURPOSE. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Fort Worth District, is conducting active public market intelligence to gauge industry interest, capacity, and capability from commercial construction firms, design-builders, and Non-Traditional Defense Contractors (NDCs). The intent is to gather critical feedback regarding advanced commercial construction methodologies, project delivery risks, and acquisition preferences to support our upcoming project delivery selection.\n\n• ACQUISITION STRATEGY & NON-FAR MODEL.\n\n• Statutory Authority: This project will potentially be executed as a Progressive Design-Build (PDB) or Design-Build to Budget (DBtB) project utilizing Other Transaction Authority (OTA) pursuant to 10 U.S.C. § 2808a.\n\n• Non-FAR Environment: Prospective partners are advised that the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) does NOT apply to this procurement. The negotiated, bilateral Other Transaction Agreement will serve as the sole governing contract. Standard FAR clauses are inapplicable, though federal statutory constraints (such as federal fiscal law, criminal statutes, and general civil laws) remain fully applicable.\n\n• Phased Agreement Mechanics:\n\n• PBD Procurement Process: Phase 1, Design & Pre-Construction Services, a design-builder will be selected through a qualifications-based selection (QBS) process. The government will then negotiate a fee for Phase 1 services. There is no requirement to submit price proposals or design concepts during the initial selection.\n\n• Phase 2, Final Design & Construction, is executed via a bilateral modification to the OT Agreement upon successful negotiation of a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) at approximately 65% design maturity. The Agreement contains an \"off-ramp\" clause allowing the Government to retain the design and procure construction separately if GMP negotiations fail.\n\n• DBtB Procurement Process: Solicitation and evaluation during Phase 1 focuses on the qualifications, past performance, and integrated Design-Build experience of each offeror. The Government is evaluating the team and not necessarily how the offeror will design the structure. The Phase 1 evaluation results in the selection of three of the most highly qualified, competitive teams to proceed to Phase 2.\n\n• Phase 2, the Government will issue the final RFP exclusively to the down-selected teams. This RFP includes the validated, performance-based requirements, establishes the firm Construction Cost Limit (CCL), and clearly defines the basic scope.\n\nNote: See link to provide industry feedback\n\nhttps://forms.osi.apps.mil/r/ZQ8Rm8MaN7","origin":"detail"},"notice_type":{"code":"r","label":"Sources Sought"},"schema_version":1,"solicitation_number":"PANSWD26P0000032201","place_of_performance":{"zip":"76067","city":{"code":"48684","name":"Mineral Wells"},"state":{"code":"TX","name":"Texas"},"country":{"code":"USA","name":"UNITED STATES"}},"product_service_code":"Y1FC"}],"due_at":"2026-11-04T20:00:00Z","due_date":"2026-11-04","closes_at":"2026-11-04T20:00:00Z","awardable":true,"dept_key":"d-021","dept_name":"DEPT OF DEFENSE","sub_key":"s-2100","sub_name":"DEPT OF THE ARMY","office_key":"o-W9126G","office_name":"W076 ENDIST FT WORTH","state":"TX","county":"48363","county_name":"Palo Pinto County","city":"4848684","city_name":"Mineral Wells","country":"USA","state_source":null,"state_evidence":null,"site_key":null,"winner_key":null,"amount":null,"linked_awards":0,"cancelled":false,"archived":false,"updated_at":"2026-10-22T04:09:15.685315Z","principal_notice_id":"30d30638656c467a918bfdded4ef375f","description":{"text":"SUBJECT: Sources Sought (RFI) – Fort Wolters H Barracks, Mineral Wells, Texas\n\n• DISCLAIMER.
