- DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY, COMMANDING OFFICER, NAVAL FACILITIES ENGINEERING COMMAND, MID-ATLANTIC, CONTRACTS OFFICE, CODE OPNEAQ:DJA, 9742 MARYLAND AVENUE, NORFOLK, VIRGINIA 23511-3095 C-- Indefinite Quantity Contract for Civil/ Structural/Architectural/Mechanical/Electrical Services in support of Projects at Military Installations throughout the Naval Facilities Engineering Command, Mid-Atlantic IPTNE Area of Responsibility N40085-10-R-9419 thru 9424 12 January 2010 Manoo Shivaee, Contract Specialist, Code OPNEAQ, 757-444-0342 ALL INFORMATION NEEDED FOR INTERESTED PARTIES TO SUBMIT A STANDARD FORM (SF) 330, ARCHITECT ENGINEER QUALIFICATIONS IS CONTAINED HEREIN. THERE IS NO SEPARATE RFP PACKAGE TO DOWNLOAD. NAVFAC MIDLANT is requesting A&E qualifications from interested parties for Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity Contracts for Architectural and Engineering Design services for projects for six (6) contracts for projects at Military Installations throughout the NAVFAC MIDLANT Area of Responsibility (AOR). The MIDLANT AOR includes the entire mid-Atlantic and northern-Atlantic regions including, but not limited to Virginia, North Carolina, West Virginia, Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Delaware. The preponderance of the work under these contracts is anticipated to occur within NAVFAC Mid-Atlantic Northeast IPT area of responsibility including the states of Delaware, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Maine and Vermont. NAVFAC intends to award up to six (6) separate, stand alone IDIQ A&E contracts, it is anticipated that the awarded contracts will reflect work within MIDLANT IPTNE geographic area and that orders will be issued against the appropriate contract vehicle for such work. No task orders will be competed among the contracts awarded. Contracts will be awarded not to exceed $10,000,000. The preponderance of projects envisioned for these contracts are in the $1,000,000 to $40,000,000 range of estimated construction cost. Projects can be categorized as Architectural and Engineering design services in nature and shall include, but are not limited to: personnel housing facilities (Bachelor Enlisted Quarters (BEQ) and Bachelor Officers' Quarters (BOQ)); office facilities; training facilities (operational, maintenance and classroom); and industrial maintenance facilities (Vehicle Maintenance Shops. Shore Intermediate Maintenance Activities, Aircraft Maintenance Hangars, Public Works Shops, Warehouses): (a) Building construction and addition of Special Projects and MILCON facilities; (b) General building renovation work, i.e., repair/replacement of roofs, windows, doors, ceilings, floors, restrooms, exterior and interior building finishes, HVAC, plumbing, lighting, power, fire protection and communications; (c) Conducting Life Safety Code Studies, interior space ! planning/design studies, (d) Site work, paving, landscaping, structural, electrical, communications, mechanical, plumbing, fire protection, energy conservation systems, and utilities; and (e) marine facilities (harbors, jetties, piers, wharves, ship terminals, dredging). Architectural and Engineering Design Services that may be required under this contract include, but are not limited to, facility planning which includes project programming documents (1391 development) which entails preparation of basic project documents of the DD Form 1391 in the Navy's Electronic Procurement Generator (EPG), development of requirements, preparation of engineering evaluations, project scope, and unit guidance costs or parametric cost estimating, development of alternatives and economic analysis; analysis of proposed sites for foundations, utilities, access, constraints and identification of environmental, sustainable design and anti-terrorism/force protection issues; Design-Bid-Build packages (drawings, specifications, basis of design, cost estimates, and all associated engineering services), Design-Build Request for Proposal (RFP) packages, government collateral equipment lists, USGBC LEED Checklists and Sustainable Design Reports, developing building comm! issioning requirements, project preliminary hazard analysis, obtaining permits and regulatory approvals, review of contractor submittals, field consultation and inspection during construction, Title II Inspection, Operation and Maintenance Support Information (OMSI), and record document preparation. The initial project(s) will be determined at a later date. The Naval Facilities Engineering Command is presently using Design-Build as the preferred method for acquiring capital improvements. Though Design-Bid-Build methodologies (with the preparation of 100% Plans and Specifications) will continue to be utilized, a significant number will likely require preparation of Requests for Proposal packages for Design-Build solicitations using abbreviated (0% - 30%) design documentation. Packages would include elements of site/engineering investigation, architectural programming, and function/performance specifications. Phases and/or pre-priced contract options may be included and will be exercised at the discretion of the government for 0 to 35%, 35 to 100% design, and post construction contract award services. Contract award is contingent on availability of funds. Options are normally exercised within several months of completing prior work; however, delays of up to one year are possible. All projects will require design in the metric system, unless specifically exempted. As part of this contract, an asbestos and/or lead-based paint assessment may be required to determine the presence of hazardous material during removals/demolition or at utility points of connections. Firms must be able to accept work that involves asbestos, lead paint, PCBs, and other hazardous materials. Work will be prepared utilizing AutoCAD 2006 or higher. Specifications will be prepared using SPECINSTACT SGML program, and cost estimates using the Success estimating program in a Work Breakdown Structures (WBS) system format will be utilized. Selected firm will be required to provide documents in pdf format for posting to a Government web site during solicitation. All design and engineering services shall comply with the most current edition of UFC 1-300-09N Design Procedures, and other requirements as indicated on the Whole Building Design Guide Web Site (www.wbdg.org). Firms are advised that the selected firm, its subsidiaries or affiliates which design or prepare specifications for a construction contract cannot provide the construction services for the same contract. This includes concept design, which includes preparation of project programming documents (DD Form 1391), facility siting studies, environmental assessments, or request for proposals for Design-Build projects, or other activities that result in identification of project scope and cost. The contract requires that the selected firm have on-line access to email via the Internet for exchange of correspondence/information.
