Port Everglades Terminal, LLC (PET) is seeking qualified Design-Build Contractors to register their interest in receiving a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the design, permitting, construction, testing, commissioning, and warranty of infrastructure improvements supporting PET's Hybrid Rubber-Tired Gantry Crane (RTG) modernization program. This Project is being funded, in part, through the United States Maritime Administration (MARAD) Port Infrastructure Development Program (PIDP).

•Electrical power distribution and supporting infrastructure;
•Utility relocations and modifications;
•Drainage improvements;
•Asphalt restoration and site improvements; and
•All associated civil, structural, electrical, environmental, and permitting work necessary to place the facilities into service.
The Project will be procured using a Design-Build delivery method with award based on Best Value.
Because this Project will be constructed within an active marine container terminal operating twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week, PET is seeking Design-Build teams with demonstrated experience delivering comparable heavy civil, transportation, industrial, port, marine terminal, or intermodal infrastructure projects while maintaining ongoing facility operations.

•Marine terminal or port infrastructure;
•Heavy-duty reinforced concrete pavement or crane runway systems;
•Design-Build delivery of transportation or industrial infrastructure;
•Utility relocations within active operational facilities;
•Heavy electrical distribution systems;
•Construction phasing to minimize operational impacts; and
•Coordination with multiple permitting and regulatory agencies.
The successful Design-Build Contractor shall provide all architectural, engineering, permitting, construction, testing, commissioning, warranty, and closeout services necessary to deliver a complete, operational facility. This federally funded Project shall be subject to all applicable federal, state, and local requirements, including, but not limited to:

•2 CFR Part 200 – Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards;
•Davis-Bacon and Related Acts;
