The National Park Service Denver Service Center plans to issue a request for proposals for construction at Vicksburg National Military Park in Mississippi: stabilizing slopes at Mint Spring Bayou and terraces and graves at the National Cemetery to repair landslides. It is a presolicitation (advance) notice for a small business set-aside; the stated magnitude is more than $15,000,000 and the period is 548 calendar days from Notice to Proceed.
Things to watch
- Currently unfunded. The requirement has no funding yet, so the award depends on money becoming available.
This is currently an unfunded requirement, with a high expectation that funding will be available.
- Large project with bonding required. At more than $15 million with bid, performance and payment bonds required, a small business needs substantial bonding capacity.
Magnitude of Construction: More than $15,000,000.
- Specialized geotechnical work on culturally sensitive ground. Soldier pile walls, ground anchors and archaeological monitoring in a national cemetery need experienced crews and add schedule risk.
Archaeological and cultural investigations will be conducted to monitor
- Pre-proposal conference and site visit expected. The notice anticipates a conference and site visit after the RFP is issued; it does not say whether attendance will be mandatory.
