Description

This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in the Federal Acquisitions Regulation (FAR) Part 12 as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. This solicitation is issued as a Request for Proposal (RFP). The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through the Federal Acquisition Circular. The associated North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 541370 with a small business size standard of $4.5M annual gross receipts for a period of three years. General Services Administration (GSA), Public Buildings Service (PBS), Contracting and Facilities Management Division (PGE), is requesting support services for the Building Information Models (BIM) for the Office of the Chief Architect. Background: In July 2003, the the Office of the Chief Architect (OCA) established the National 3D-4D-BIM Program. To date, OCA has initiated over 70+ capital projects across the nation using an array of 3D, 4D, and Building Information Modeling (BIM) technologies in support of GSA business needs. The power of visualization, coordination, simulation, and optimization from three-dimensional (3D), four-dimensional (4D), and BIM computer technologies allow GSA to more effectively meet customer, design, construction, and program requirements. GSA is committed to a strategic and incremental adoption of 3D, 4D, BIM technologies (www.gsa.gov/bim). Project Description: Project Name: San Luis 2 Land Port of Entry (New Construction) Building Type: Land Port of Entry (border station) Location: San Luis, AZ Approximate Area: Roughly 30,000 gsf spread among several small buildings, and approximately the same amount of additional square footage in the canopy areas. Year Built: Under construction, anticipated completion September 2009. Project Summary: This project is construction of a new land port of entry (border station) on the Arizona border with Mexico. The current GSA Computer Maintenance and Management System (CMMS) does not adequately capture the required equipment information necessary for the effective management and operation of its facilities. GSA has a desire to enhance its building information database with this information to create a more robust and effective building management environment, enabling coordinated commissioning activities and facility management (e.g., maintenance schedules, maintenance coordination, mechanical operation, etc.) across building life-cycle phases. The phase of work covered by this solicitation is limited to creation of a mechanical, electrical and plumbing model, and population of applicable fields during the construction process as submittals identify specific products and installation details. GSA shall provide a spatial program BIM, developed through Final Concept, as a basis for the MEP model. Objectives: The objectives for this requirement are: - To create a BIM(s) that contains a selected population of critical mechanical, electrical, and plumbing objects for building services such as HVAC, BAS, and Lighting that may be utilized for building design, construction, and operation. The model will support services such as spatial validation, clash detection, and building operations and maintenance activities. The model shall include several buildings within the Land Port of Entry. - To populate the critical mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and civil objects with the appropriate performance requirements and as-built information. The object attribute information that is captured will be used throughout the building lifecycle and integrated into the GSA CMMS (which is an in-house developed application). Systems integration with the GSA CMMS is not part of this scope. - To assist the GSA in developing Best Practices that will be incorporated into GSA’s BIM Guide Series. It is the intention of the government to develop the Best Practices in a collaborative way so that future use of BIM for similar applications yields high quality deliverables in the most efficient manner. Scope of Services: The following sections describe the services requested through this solicitation. The contractor shall coordinate and seek approval from the GSA COTR regarding the equipment object types, elements, element attributes, and zones to be modeled (these are defined later in this section). Information on the specified equipment object types, elements, and element attributes, to be modeled will be provided to the contractor directly by GSA COTR as that information becomes available. All services listed below include the support of development of best practices guidelines for the GSA BIM Guide Series. This BIM Scope of Work will be a Firm Fixed Price Contract. 1.0Base Services The contractor shall provide a BIM of the following components outlined in 1.1-1.7, using the existing spatial validation BIM as a starting point. The contractor shall properly use available “object information” that embody information about the building component requirements and properties (e.g., construction materials, functional information, dimensions, etc). Contractor shall coordinate with GSA to determine which buildings to model. GSA shall provide the contractor with the 100% Construction Document AutoCAD files, the spatial validation BIM, and applicable MEP submittals (in either PDF or hard copy). Submittals will be provided as they become available during construction. Contractor shall assume that a Final Concept spatial program BIM (i.e., architectural and structural BIM) is available as a starting point. Contractor shall coordinate with GSA COTR to determine the exact mechanical, electrical, and plumbing objects to model. 1.1.Site 3D Model/BIM The contractor shall provide a 3D model and/or BIM of the surrounding landscape, extending to the boundaries of the Port of Entry. 1.2.MEP BIM The contractor shall provide a MEP BIM that models the major object types for these disciplines. Contractor shall model MEP objects both within each building, between buildings, and entering the site. Contractor shall coordinate with GSA COTR to determine which objects to model in BIM. Contractor shall assume 30 object types shall be modeled. Example object types are: Mechanical: package units and other heating/air conditioning units, pumps, fans, ducts, controls, etc. Electrical: electric panels, fluorescent lighting, fiber optics cables, cable trays, conduit, feeders, fire alarms, etc. Plumbing: sprinkler systems, storage tanks, pumps, supply piping, transformers, gas lines, water supply piping, etc. 1.3.Modeling of Required Building Equipment Attributes (Performance Requirements) The contractor shall populate the building elements modeled with equipment information that captures the performance requirements specified by the design team. In addition to the basic properties of name/description, dimensions, location, National CAD Standard acronym and OmniClass classification, an average of 15 equipment attributes (e.g. hp, gpm, rpm, power factor, etc.) should be anticipated for each object. 1.4.National CAD Standard To ensure stability and conformity throughout the life cycle of all assets and repairs, the GSA desires to create a standard system of acronyms based upon the National CAD to identify equipment. The contractor shall coordinate with the GSA COTR to obtain the appropriate acronyms for the building equipment modeled. This information will be included in the list of attributes that is assigned to the required building elements. 1.5.OmniClass The OmniClass Construction Classification System (known as OmniClass or OCCS) is a new classification system for the construction industry developed by the Construction Specification Institute (CSI). It builds upon MasterFormat for work results, UniFormat for elements, and EPIC (Electronic Product Information Cooperation) for structuring products. OmniClass is a reference library that will serve as the foundation upon which information is transferred between the BIM, COBIE, and GSA’s CMMS (see Section 6.0). The contractor shall include the appropriate OmniClass classification in the list of attributes that is assigned to the required building elements. The contractors(s) shall coordinate with the GSA COTR to ensure the correct application to OmniClass to the modeled elements. 1.6.Construction Operations Building Information Exchange (COBIE) The Construction Operations Building Information Exchange (COBIE) is a buildingSMART initiative of the National Institute of Building Science’s (NIBS) Facility Maintenance and Operations Committee, the Facility Information Council, the International Alliance for Interoperability, and the National Building Information Model Standard. It is a federal government sponsored effort to support the development of BIM via information exchange between the construction and operations phases. COBIE has several functions. First, it serves as a repository for important equipment information, as does the BIM model. Second, it allows for the collection and management of electronic construction submittals in various file formats, and enables the owner to ensure that the performance requirements for the project have been met. The contractor shall coordinate the appropriate equipment information from the BIM with the COBIE system. As construction as-built data is submitted to COBIE by the general contractor, the BIM services contractor shall update the appropriate equipment attributes in the BIM model. The contractor shall coordinate with the GSA COTR to ensure the correct coordination between the BIM and COBIE. Equipment information from COBIE and the BIM will be transferred directly into the GSA CMMS by the GSA facility management team. The contractor will coordinate with the facility management team to ensure the information to be transferred is complete and in the correct format. 2.0OPTIONS 2.1OPTION A Execute Base Services (Sections 1.1-1.6). However, exercising Option A will require an additional 30 object types beyond the Base requirements to be modeled (for a total of 60 object types). 2.2Option B Architectural and Structural BIM Contractor shall assume that a spatial program BIM is available as a starting point. Contractor shall further detail the architectural and structural BIM to accordance with the 100% Construction Documentation. Architectural: The BIM(s) shall include slabs/floors, walls (exterior), roofs, doors, windows, etc. Structural: The BIM(s) shall include trusses, beams, columns, joists, pre-cast systems, etc. (if applicable) 3.0SPECIFICATIONS OF DELIVERABLES 3.1BIM Modeling Plan The contractor shall submit a BIM modeling plan within 60 days after the NTP.
