MBK Engineers of Sacramento has been solely responsible for the preliminary design efforts for the concrete liner sections for the outlets and has provided technical guidance on the liner sections for the new and enlarged adits and galleries. They have also been involved with interfacing the design efforts of other A-Es, in particular the designer of the bellmouth section of the conduit, with their own design for most of the remaining conduit liner sections. b. MBK Engineers of Sacramento staff includes an individual who was the primary individual responsible for the development of the outlet gate construction sequencing plans and the documentation to the Corps of Engineers 2001 Gate Size Decision Technical Me morandum report. c. To award to a firm other than MBK Engineers of Sacramento for this follow-on effort, would cause substantial loss of time and manpower to the Government due to unfamiliarity with all features of the project, and in particular, with the conduit liner des igns. 2.

An individual from the firm shall be e xpected to collocate within the offices of the Army Corps of Engineers in Sacramento, CA. 3. Submission Requirements: Firms may provide qualification information for consideration in allowing the Contracting Officer to determine alternate sources for this specialized work. The Contracting Officer has sole discretion in making a determination to solicit other sources based on the information provided as a result of this Notice of Intent. Submittals, in the form of an SF 255 must discuss the qualifications of your firm in relation to each of the qualifications listed above. Limit the submissio n of the SF255 to not more than 20 pages.
