PLEASE CONTINUE TO MONITOR FEDBIZOPPS.GOV FOR UPDATES. structure attached to the building, as well as the build out/backfill of anticipated vacant space on the sixth floor for a particular tenant agency. The entire project will incorporate GSA’s design standards for secure facilities, conformance to the P100 (Facility Standards for Public Buildings), including LEED certification; and customer agency requirements. The building will be fully occupied during construction. All building systems will remain in operation during construction and the project phased to avoid disruption of occupants. Construction will be accomplished with a combination of after normal business hour work (6pm-6am, weekends, and holidays) and swing space. Definition of Construction Manager as Constructor: A CMc contractor is defined as a firm engaged under direct contract to a building owner or client (in this case the General Services Administration – GSA). The services requested of the CMc shall cover a wide range of design and construction activities which are often performed by both Construction Managers (CMs) and General Contractors (GCs). In contrast to a CM that is not also a constructor, the CMc is at risk and is involved with project development and administration of the construction. The CMc shall be a member of the project development team working with the A/E and the Government to ensure a quality project, during the planning, design, and construction phases of the project. Selection of the CMc firm will be in accordance with the federal acquisition regulations and source selection procedures using the Best Value Trade-off process. All elements of work to be executed must be within the congressionally mandated cost limitations. The CMc shall work with the A/E, their design consultants, the Third Party Commissioning Contractor, and the Government in a cooperative team effort to ensure a quality project, within the mandated schedule and budget. The CMc will be brought onto the project during the design phase, during which he/she can be effective at controlling design-related costs and develop construction sequencing activities. During the design phase, the CMc will be responsible for developing construction cost estimates and costs related to future project consultants. For the Pre-Construction Phase Services, GSA intends to have the CMc perform other services including evaluating design concepts, reviewing designs, evaluating cost estimates, preparing independent cost estimates in various formats, controlling schedules, reviewing phases of work, resolving problems, participating in value engineering (VE) exercises, preparing commissioning plans as determined by a 3rd party commissioning agent, working with a LEED consultant to prepare for LEED certification, conducting constructability reviews, developing subcontractor and supplier interests, identifying long-lead items, and performing administrative and other services. The CMc shall provide GSA with sound management advice regarding the approach to the project, how to achieve the best value in the work being accomplished, delineate necessary actions, alternative ideas, problem/claim prevention, and budgeting. The CMc shall have a full understanding of the project, its contract documents, the principles of Federal construction contracting and contract administration. CMc services for this project during the actual construction, Construction Phase Services (Option 2), will include, but may not be limited to, the following: administration of the construction contract (whether the work is performed with the CMc’s internal personnel or under sub-contract), coordination of regular construction meetings, CPM scheduling, daily logs and monthly reports, monitoring of construction costs, record keeping, progress reporting, schedule control, inspections, testing, and other required supplemental LEED services. The CM shall have complete responsibility for the construction of the project. During the construction phase, the CMc will be responsible for providing warranties on all completed work and for providing construction materials in a timely manner to complete the job on schedule and under budget. Small Business Participation: This is a negotiated procurement open to both large and small business concerns. The NAICS code applicable to this solicitation is 236220 with a small business size standard of $31.0 million. Although this procurement is not set aside for small business, small businesses including woman-owned, minority-owned, HUBZone, veteran-owned, small disadvantaged businesses and service disabled veteran-owned business are strongly encouraged to participate in this project. In accordance with 15 USC 631, large businesses will be required to provide these small firms the maximum practical opportunities to participate as subcontractors in the performance of this contract. Each large firm will be required to submit an acceptable subcontracting plan that meets, and preferably exceeds, the minimum acceptable subcontracting target goals established by the Small Business Administration (SBA). An acceptable subcontracting plan must be reviewed and approved by the SBA prior to award of this contract. Small businesses are not subject to this requirement. However, all firms seeking consideration for this contract will need to demonstrate a proactive effort to achieve the highest possible subcontracting goals for local business participation. In order to receive the benefit of a price evaluation preference as a HUBZone small business concern, firms must be certified by the SBA. Please refer to the SBA website at www.sba.gov for details. Joint Ventures: Joint venture or firm/consultant arrangements will be considered and evaluated on a demonstrated interdependency of the members to provide a quality CMc team effort.
