2.    Project Description and Contracting Procedures

Scope of Work
The USACE Middle East District is assessing industry capability to perform construction-related services for Sustainment, Restoration, and Modernization (SRM), simplified acquisition of base repair requirements, real property maintenance, and small-scale renovation efforts at various sites throughout Israel.

JOC Framework
This contract vehicle utilizes a framework featuring pre-established repair, maintenance, and minor construction task specifications and baseline prices. Individual task orders will be defined and priced using a government-furnished Unit Price Book (UPB)—specifically the Dekel Cost Book, tailored for local standards in Israel.
The baseline unit prices in the UPB encompass only direct material, labor, and equipment costs. To account for indirect operating expenses, overhead, and profit, the contractor will apply a proposed coefficient (adjustment factor) multiplied by the baseline UPB prices to determine the final, binding price of each individual task order.

Procurement and Award Method
• Solicitation Process: The anticipated solicitation will be provided to offerors who have been vetted through a prequalification process.
• Evaluation Continuum: Contract award will be executed on a firm-fixed-price basis using the best value trade-off source selection continuum.
• Anticipated Timeline: Should the acquisition proceed, USACE anticipates issuing the solicitation and subsequent award in Fiscal Year (FY) 2027.
• Funding: The majority of work will be administered under Foreign Military Financing (FMF). However, a small portion of the work may be administered with U.S appropriated funds. United States procurement laws and regulations apply. Each task order will be awarded and paid in U.S. dollars.

3.    Key Requirements
