The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New England District is issuing this Sources Sought Announcement for a construction project for Repairs to the East and West Jetties of Nantucket Harbor on Nantucket Island, MA, to determine interest, availability and capability of HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned and Small Business concerns. Work is expected to begin in December 2014 and all work, including site restoration, must be completed by November 30, 2015. The estimated construction cost is between $5,000,000 and $10,000,000.

Nantucket Harbor is located on the north side of Nantucket Island, MA about 25 miles south of Hyannis, Massachusetts. The proposed work involves repairing those sections of the east and west jetties that were damaged by Hurricane Sandy in late October 2012 and will involve mobilizing heavy construction equipment, armor stone and other project materials to Nantucket Island by water.

The repair work will involve reconstructing both the east and west jetty to pre-storm conditions including side slopes and crest height. All equipment and materials will be delivered to the site via water and all repair work will be conducted from marine plant within the foot-print of the existing structure. The quantity of stone to be placed is currently estimated at approximately 24,300 tons, split between the two jetties. A small amount of displaced stone is expected to be recovered from the site adjacent to the jetties, but the majority of stone needed for the repairs will need to be brought to the construction site from offsite (mainland) sources. New stone needed to repair the structures is expected to range in size from 2 - 4 tons. Significant portions of both jetties will require quote mark dismantling quote mark prior to rebuilding with new stone so that pre-storm elevations and side slopes can be matched and the armor stone can be properly aligned and interlocked.

Interested firms should submit a capabilities package to include the following: business classification (i.e. small business) as well as demonstrating qualifications and experience with performing at least 3 projects in the last 5 years involving construction/repair of similar massive stone structures, such as seawalls, rubble mound breakwaters, and jetties, from marine plant.

Please indicate the team subcontractor(s), including their prior experience and qualifications, which will be used to support the offeror's effort.
