NAVFAC Mid-Atlantic wants a contractor to build the P-1550 SOF Marine Raider Battalion, Company and Team facilities at Stone Bay, Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, North Carolina: about 73,400 SF, 127,200 SF and 17,600 SF of new single-story steel-frame buildings plus site work. It is a firm-fixed-price design-bid-build construction contract with a stated size of $100 to $250 million, full and open competition, and 1,246 calendar days to finish. This is already a late-stage competition: proposals were first due in June/July 2026 and Amendment 0008 says discussion questions were sent to offerors and the response date is now 15 October 2026.
Watch out for
- Competition appears to be in discussions already. Amendment 0008 says offerors were sent discussion questions, so the field may be limited to competitive-range offerors and a new bidder could be too late.
Offerors were sent an evaluation notice containing discussion questions via email.
- Very large project, big-company experience bar. Stated size is $100 to $250 million and you must show at least 2 projects of $50 million or more as prime, which most small businesses cannot meet without a joint venture.
In accordance with DFARS 236.204, the estimated magnitude of construction is between $100,000,000 and $250,000,000.
- Heavy financial proof and bonding. You need a bid bond, a bank reference, three years of financial statements, and performance and payment bonds within 10 days of award.
- Daily liquidated damages. Late completion costs $12,750.08 per day, and the 1,246 day schedule includes a very low rain-day allowance (0.10 inch), with the government saying only 'Bid per RFP'.
$12,750.08/day
- Secure facility and access rules. Includes a shielded secure area (government tests to 40 dB attenuation), a Construction Security Plan, MARSOC compound access processing, U.S. citizen workforce, and no personal vehicles inside the construction site.
- Site environmental and ground risks. A known PFAS release near the work, a known UXO site along the access road (training required), archaeological sites, wetlands, and no geotechnical report provided; no existing water or power at the site boundary.
Yes, a known release of PFAS in
- Incremental funding. Only part of the price is funded at award and the rest depends on later-year funding, so work could stop if funds are not allotted.
On execution of contract $79,500,000
- Dates and documents moved many times. Due date moved from 29 Jun to 9 Jul 2026, then to 2 Sep, and now 15 Oct 2026 (Amendment 0007 was not in the text provided); drawings and specs were revised through Revision 4, so use the latest amendment.
Response Due Date 02 Sep 2026 15 Oct 2026
