About 2 million cubic yards of material will be dredged from Sandbridge borrow site A and other borrow sites and placed on Sandbridge Beach to renourish the shoreline. The work includes pre-dredge and post-dredge hydrographic surveys of 3,261 acres, and will be done under a firm-fixed-price construction contract with an estimated value in the range of $25 million to $100 million. Construction is expected to begin within a short window after award, with a total performance period around 276 days, and a dredging prohibition during a late-summer to mid-fall window.

Respondents are asked to complete a confidential industry survey to share capabilities, past projects of similar size and complexity, bonding capacity, and safety compliance (EM 385-1-1). They should indicate whether they would bid as sole contractor, prime with subs, or in a joint venture, and note any contract size limits and the largest dredging project they have managed as prime. The information will inform the government’s acquisition strategy; there is no solicitation yet. Firms must be SAM-registered, and the official solicitation will be announced on SAM.gov.
