Request for SF 330s - A/E Services for Seawall Study at the Tongue Point Job Corps Center

The U.S. Department of Labor/OASAM/OSPE/Job Corps Acquisition Services is issuing this notice for the procurement of Architecture Engineering (A-E) Services to complete a Seawall Study for the Tongue Point Job Corps Center (TPJCC) in Astoria, Oregon.

This notice constitutes a special situation in accordance with FAR 5.205(d). Firms intending to be considered for evaluation in response to this notice shall submit a SF 330, Architect-Engineer Qualifications, as detailed below section, Submission Requirements.

The project is to provide architecture and engineering services for the Seawall Study at the Tongue Point Job Corps Center in Astoria, OR. The seawall is composed of an outboard timber apron, and a continuous timber sheet pile bulkhead with timber wales. The seaplane ramp is constructed of a concrete deck over steel H- piles. The TPJCC Seamanship Trade program uses one pier to access their training ships and the seaplane ramp is currently only used as a boat ramp for vehicles putting boats in and out of the water.

A recent observation of these structures found that there is extensive damage throughout the bulkhead structural system. Extensive decay was found on members of the bulkhead with existing drain holes, the lower elevation of timber sheet piles, the upper and lower horizontal wales and diagonal braces. The concrete upper portion of the seaplane ramp is in good condition, however the steel H- piles below the water have sustained significant corrosive section loss. Geotechnical investigations indicate that the site is subject to settlement, global lateral spreading and liquefaction.

This procurement is a 100% Small Business Set-Aside.
