RFI for Construction Services

The government authority in Washington is seeking construction services for site preparation and a balance of construction activities. The agency needs to solve the problem of installing a below-grade steel waste storage tank, which requires a vertical, shored excavation of a vault estimated to be sixty feet by forty feet and fifty feet deep. The project covers retaining wall formwork, rebar installation, concrete pouring, curing, and the excavation and installation of electrical infrastructure. The scope of work also includes fabricating, inspecting, testing, and installing electrical infrastructure and connections. The agency requires excavation, grading, forming, and concrete placement for process equipment, a chiller unit, an exhaust unit, a loadout station, walkways, and a spent ion exchange column storage pad. Additionally, the project demands the installation of retaining walls, a three-and-a-half-foot thick concrete vault, and a significant amount of in-tank farm excavation near existing utilities and underground waste storage tanks. The selected contractor must pave a new road and parking lots, including striping, parking blocks, and signage. The authority also requires the procurement, construction, and installation of a prefabricated building and instrument enclosures. Eligible organizations must be onshore United States organizations, and the performance of the work must take place onsite. The agency is currently looking for proposals to establish the budget, and the source document does not specify key dates or evaluation criteria.
