February 19, 2009
by Norfolk District Public Affairs
Norfolk District’s Contracting Office recently awarded a contract for a general instruction building at Fort Benning, Ga., in support of the Center of Standardization for General Instruction Buildings for the South East Region.
Military & Federal Construction Co., Inc. of Jacksonville, N.C. was awarded a $14,524,514 firm fixed price contract consisting of the site design and construction of an approximately 68,470 square foot, two-story, facility, with an estimated completion date of Dec. 31, 2011.
Deborah Gray, a Norfolk District contracting specialist, played an integral role in awarding the contract for the general instruction buildings project. Gray is one member of a 13 person team that goes through the process of reviewing and rating potential contractors and subcontractors once a solicitation is received.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers uses a relatively new Web-based system, called FedTeDS, to safeguard acquisition-related information for all Federal agencies. Prospective contractors, subcontractors, plan rooms, printing companies and suppliers can register with FedTeDS at https://www.fedteds.gov
