CLIN STRUCTURE FOR PUBLIC FEEDBACK - LOCK AND DAM 25 NEW 1,200 FT LOCK NAVIGATION AND ECOSYSTEM SUSTAINABILITY PROGRAM (NESP)

CLIN STRUCTURE FOR PUBLIC FEEDBACK -------- The Government is seeking focused industry feedback on whether Option 4 of the Lock and Dam 25 contract should be structured as a fixed-price incentive arrangement. The anticipated structure is firm-fixed-price for the base and Options 1 through 3. This market research is limited to whether Option 4 should remain firm-fixed-price or use a fixed-price incentive successive targets (FPIS) approach. ----- Important framing for respondents. This request does not indicate that the Government has selected an incentive contract type. Responses will help assess competition, price reasonableness, administrative burden, risk allocation, and whether an incentive structure for Option 4 would improve cost, schedule, and delivery outcomes compared to firm-fixed-price pricing. The market research should determine whether Option 4 incentive pricing would reduce contingency and improve delivery outcomes, or whether firm-fixed-price for Option 4 remains simpler and more competitive. Please refer to the previously posted draft RFP for more information on the features of work included in the base and options. ---- Feedback shall be provided via email to NESPLock25Project@usace.army.mil AND whitney.r.dee@usace.army.mil with subject line CLIN STRUCTURE FEEDBACK for W912P926RA004.
