Summary

AI-generated · Oct 08, 2025

Capability statements are invited from small businesses to perform design-bid-build construction for the P1112 Building 72 Resiliency project at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, Kittery, Maine. The effort covers a comprehensive desalination facility intended to produce non-potable process water (about 400,000 gpd nominal, with an average need of 250,000–300,000 gpd), including pumping and control systems to feed an existing condensate receiver tank and to interconnect with cooling towers. It includes an underwater seawater intake with an EPA 316B compliant intake screen and automated airburst self-cleaning, an ultrafiltration pretreatment train, seawater RO Stage 1 and BWRO Stage 2, a 30,000-gallon permeate storage tank, a chemical clean-in-place system, and a submerged brine discharge/outfall. The scope also encompasses coordinated repairs and limited restoration of Building 242 and historic Building 72, hazardous-material abatement, structural reconfiguration of seawater wells, and extension of electrical, compressed air, domestic water, and sanitary sewer utilities, plus bid options for controlled density fill in old gravity seawater tunnels. The project requires integration of local instrumentation and controls with the existing B72 boiler-plant controls and includes excavation in areas with known hazardous soils.

The government intends to determine a set-aside approach after market feedback; small businesses including SDVOSB, VOSB, HUBZone, 8(a), and WOSB are encouraged to respond. The contract will include a Subcontracting Limitations clause (85% of non-material cost paid to subcontractors must be performed by the prime or similarly situated entities). Interested firms must submit a capabilities package demonstrating two to five relevant projects from the last ten years, each with final construction cost of at least $20 million and showing experience in phased construction, working in active utility plants with limited on-site space, and hazardous-material abatement. If responding as an 8(a) firm, indicate the mentor-protégé work share and provide the SBA authorization if requested. Submissions are due by October 17, 2025; responses must be electronic and limited to 5 MB. This notice is a market-research step and is not a solicitation.
