Description

ARCHITECT-ENGINEERING (A/E) DESIGN SERVICES: The WBJ Dorn VA Medical Center, Columbia, SC is seeking qualified A/E Firms to furnish professional services for project 544-201-206 "A/E DESIGN WATER TOWER." Responses should be submitted on an SF330. A/E DESIGN WATER TOWER Dorn VA Medical Center in Columbia, SC will contract A/E services to design plans for renovation (not replacement) of a 300,000 gallon elevated water tower. The A/E will provide complete design to facilitate this project including, but not limited to, rust removal, paint application and type, safety procedures, and temporary water provisions. The A/E design and analysis will be performed in accordance with VA standards and specifications. VA standards and specification may be obtained from the VA Technical Information Library. The VA Engineer for this project will not perform inspections of work as usual as VA personnel are essentially prohibited from climbing the water tower and hence will not perform work inspections and verification. Consequently, the A/E's plans will provide for and delineate third party inspection of contractor work. A/E will have 90 days to perform design, delivered to the VA for approval in three phases. Phase one will be 50% design drawing, then 75% drawings and finally 100% drawings. The magnitude of the design project is between $25,000 and $100,000. Value engineering is encouraged and shall be noted at each design review. Construction may be phased to minimize disruptions to the operations of the Medical Center. The awarded A/E firm will prepare drawings and specifications in sufficient detail such that qualified outside General Contracting companies can prepare accurate and timely proposals for the desired work. The awarded A/E firm will be responsible for ensuring that the specifications and drawings supplied fully represent all of the work described in the Request for Proposal (RFP). The Medical Center must remain operational throughout the construction period and a detailed sequence of work will be provided by the A/E to minimize impact of the construction. The NAICS code for this project is 236220. The SF-330 can be downloaded through the GSA Forms Library at: http://www.gsa.gov/portal/forms/type/TOP type in SF330 in the "Find a Form" block and click on search. THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL; NO SOLICITATION PACKAGE WILL BE ISSUED UNTIL AFTER AN EVALUATION HAS BEEN MADE ON THE PROVIDED SF-330. This project is 100% set aside for service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) concerns and the award of a firm fixed price for this project is anticipated. Interested parties shall ensure current state licensing, shall have current registration in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database at http://ccr.gov, verified as a SDVOSB in VetBiz information pages (VIP) at hrrp://vip.vetbiz.gov and reporting to VETS 100 program at https://vets100.dol.gov.vets100login.htm. SDVOSB verification is mandatory to be considered for award. Due to the requirement for site visits and coordination on design reviews, A/E firms will be required to attend meetings in person on site at the WBJ Dorn VA Medical Center in Columbia, SC. Due to this requirement, the area for consideration for this acquisition is restricted to A/E firms with an operating office located within a 150 mile radius of the WBJ Dorn VAMC, Columbia, SC.
