AI summary Beta
NAVFAC Mid-Atlantic is asking civil and paving contractors to show interest in a multiple award construction contract for paving, drainage, grading, concrete and related site work in the North Carolina area. It uses the responses to decide whether to set the work aside for small businesses. The term is one base year plus four option years.
Watch out for
- Asphalt batch plant ownership. Owning a batch plant is a high bar for a small paving firm that does not already have one.
Statement confirming company has ownership of an asphalt batch plant.
- Set-aside not yet decided. If too few small businesses respond, the solicitation will be issued without a small business restriction.
If adequate interest is not received from SB concerns, the solicitation will be issued as unrestricted without further notice.
- Multiple-award contract. Winning a spot does not guarantee work; only the base period has a minimum guarantee and orders are competed among awardees.
Only the base period of the contract will offer a minimum guarantee.
- Strict response requirements. Incomplete responses will not be considered, and past project details must be thorough.
Notifications that do not address all the required information will not be considered.
