Courtney Springer is the Contracting Officer on this procurement. He can be reached at (816) 823-2276. Pre-Invitation Notice: The General Services Administration announces an opportunity for Construction Excellence in Public Buildings. The following document describes the Construction Manager as Constructor (CMc) Services Contract for the proposed Interior Renovation of the Federal Building located in Des Moines, Iowa. The scope of CMc services under this proposed contract includes Pre-construction Phase Services and the option for Construction Phase Services. A Fixed-Price contract under FAR 16.202-1 is contemplated. The CMc will be competitively chosen using Advisory Multi-step (FAR 15.202), and Source Selection (FAR 15.3) procedures. For this contract, technical factors, when combined, are significantly more important than cost or price (see FAR 15.101-1 trade offs). Project Summary: The Federal Building is located at 210 Walnut Street, Des Moines, Iowa. The project consists of approximately 390,000 gross square feet while containing approximately 263,500 occupiable square feet. Approximately forty federal agencies occupy the Federal Building. Another project is presently underway and involves the Repair and Alteration of the fa?ade of floors 2 through 10, including the penthouse and roof. The exterior fa?ade replacement project addresses air and water infiltration though the building envelope, and is expected to be complete January 2005. The Interior Renovation Project addresses interior renovation and upgrades systems and spaces to improve a variety of issues including abatement of hazardous materials including asbestos and lead paint, mechanical system upgrades, electrical system upgrades, modernization of tenant spaces, ADA upgrades including restrooms, and progressive collapse upgrades. Also included in the Interior Renovation Project is the renovation and replacement of the fa?ade on the first floor, construction of entries / lobbies / plazas and vertical transportation. Construction will be in multiple phases as tenants are relocated to provide vacant floors for each phase (the government plans to vacate two to three floors to allow for construction and anticipates the project will include four phases, with construction lasting no longer than 4 years). Total construction costs including all phases are estimated at $35,000,000 to $50,000,000. Definition of Construction Manager as Constructor.

(NOTE: A-E firm has been selected but no contract has been negotiated or awarded at this time.) Proposal Submission Requirements: Proposals will be evaluated using a two-stage, advisory multi-step process (FAR 15.202). Stage I of the RFP will contain an explanation of the entire selection process, including the evaluation factors for Stage I and Stage II of the Request for Proposals (RFP). Under Stage I, offerors must submit information regarding the firm's qualifications, past performance, past experience, proposed personnel, experience with electronic project management (e-PM) and factors identified in the RFP.

The Government shall evaluate all responses in accordance with the criteria stated in the Stage I of the RFP, and shall advise each respondent in writing either that it will be invited to participate in the resultant acquisition or, based on the information submitted, that it is unlikely to be a viable competitor. The Government shall advise respondents considered not to be viable competitors of the general basis for that opinion.

Offers from Small disadvantaged business concerns will receive a price evaluation preference per FAR 19.12. FAR Clause 52.219-23 - Notice of Price Evaluation Adjustment for Small Disadvantaged Business Concerns shall apply. The Stage II evaluation will be based on technical factors as well as price; however, as proposals become more equal in their technical merit, the evaluated cost or price becomes more important. The Government reserves the right to make an award based on the evaluation of the Stage II submittals without holding discussions. Pre-Construction Services are anticipated to be awarded the summer of 2005. Options for Construction Phase Services will be exercised if the Government chooses, and if the CMc contractor?s performance is satisfactory.
