- Solicitation Notice Information added on: September 21, 2018 Project Overview The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) operates high-containment laboratories (HCLs) to study some of the most virulent threats to public health. Outbreaks involving pathogens such as the Ebola and Zika viruses place increased pressure on our national research resources to maintain appropriate biocontainment environments. CDC's need for continuous high-biosafety level (BSL) containment laboratory space is growing as the threats from existing and emerging high-consequence pathogens are discovered. The design and construction of the High-Containment Continuity Laboratory (HCCL) on the Roybal Campus in Atlanta, Georgia will meet these needs. This Solicitation includes full and complete Construction Manager as Constructor (CMc) Pre-Construction, Construction and related project provisions. The CMc shall manage and perform the construction of the facility. The CMc shall provide comprehensive pre-construction and construction services, including, but not limited to: constructability reviews of the design documents, cost estimates, participation in an independent value engineering process, management and inspection services, bonds, CPM schedules, health and safety plan, product submittal development and review, develop required coordination drawings, construction administration services, security and logistic control, furnish tools, materials, equipment, labor and incidentals, safety review/inspections, quality control, coordinate all construction related work, test and inspections, commissioning, operational manuals, facilities maintenance training, record documents, warranties, and other related professional services. The Government will utilize the services of an A/E for the project design and design side construction administration services. The CMc will be required to work with the A/E firm at the pre-design phase through project completion and will agree to accept the relationship of trust and confidence, and covenants with the Government, to furnish the requisite skill and judgements and to cooperate with the A/E in furthering the interests of the Government. The CMc contract award shall be in accordance with a Two Step Selection Procedure. This procurement is unrestricted with regard to business size. Only CMc firms and their major consultants/joint venture partners having offices within a fifty mile radius of the CDC Roybal Campus, will be considered for this procurement. Description The HCCL will be a highly flexible biological laboratory comprised of BSL-3E and BSL-4 laboratories and associated support. The multi-story research building will house adequate laboratory space for eighty laboratorians. The HCCL will have gross building area of approximately 96,000 square feet and has an estimated project cost over $100 million. Research space is approximately 16,000 square feet, and the remaining approximate 80,000 square feet supports related mechanical, electrical, and plumbing operations and infrastructure. All biosafety features and systems of high containment laboratories will be included such as HEPA filtered supply and exhaust air, air pressure resistant doors, effluent collection and treatment, special wall, floor and ceiling coatings and penetrations, and other systems such as high purity breathing air and chemical decontamination showers that support BSL4 workers donning air pressure resistant suits. The HCCL's architectural character and massing will complement the finishes, textures, and colors of the adjacent Roybal Campus buildings. The Project includes utility infrastructure extensions necessary to connect the building to existing Roybal Campus utility systems with below grade utility tunnels for distribution of utility services.
