- PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT - Mechanical, ELECTRICAL, Plumbing, Controls and STRUCTURAL Engineering Services The University of California, Ernest Orlando Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), which is operated under Prime Contract DE-AC02-05CH11231 with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), intends to subcontract for Mechanical Engineering, Electrical, Plumbing (MEP) Controls, and Structural engineering services in support of the LBNL's Facilities Department construction projects and services. The subcontract will be a Master Task Agreement (MTA) with Task Orders. Berkeley National Laboratory is a large diversified research facility consisting of over 80 buildings spread over 130 acres of hilly terrain adjacent to the University of California, Berkeley Campus, as well as off-site facilities in the cities of Berkeley, Emeryville, Oakland and Walnut Creek. This is not a request for quotation. It is an announcement for subcontracting opportunities with the University of California, Ernest Orlando Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Interested architect-engineering companies are encouraged to submit qualifications as directed below. All forms and a Sample MTA will be posted at http://facilitiesprojects.lbl.gov/ LBNL intends to enter into one or more MTA(s) with MEP Engineering companies that will lead a Team of Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, Controls and Structural professionals in completing engineering design tasks under the respective MTA. No Architectural work is envisioned. The Agreement(s) term will be approximately 3 years with 2 one year extension options. The University makes no guarantee that any Task Orders will be placed against any MTA. Individual Task Orders may be awarded on a lump sum or hourly rate basis and may vary in complexity or duration. The total dollar value of awarded Task Orders issued under each MTA is estimated to be approximately $500,000.00 per year. Issuance of Task Orders will be contingent upon available funding. LBNL is free to assign and allocate electrical and/or mechanical design requirements with other architect-engineering companies that are under subcontract or may be selected in the future. In addition, the University retains the exclusive right to self-perform any or all portion(s) of the architect-engineering requirements. The architect-engineering company(s) and its subsidiaries or affiliates shall be excluded from the award of any construction subcontract that is based on the engineer's design. Small Business Set-Aside This Requirement is a small business set aside. Companies must meet the small business size standard in order to be eligible for award of a MTA. The applicable size standard is that prescribed by the U.S. Small Business Administration for NAICS Code 541330 and the description is Engineering Services. Companies with average annual receipts averaging less than $4,500,000.00 for the preceding three completed fiscal years are considered small businesses. The MEP Subcontractor must be a Small Business, but this requirement is not applicable to the entire team. Scope of Services Potential Task Orders may include but not be limited to, construction drawings and specifications or engineering calculations suitable for pricing and construction: Mechanical/Plumbing Engineering : Perform mechanical/plumbing system scoping & design including heat loads and pressure loss calculations, equipment sizing, ductwork & piping layout, equipment control schematics, and equipment schedules. Electrical Engineering: Perform electrical engineering work to a University provided scope and for design modifications to electrical power, control, signaling and communications systems within buildings and the Laboratory-wide electrical infrastructure. Perform electrical system studies including but not limited to short circuit, protective relay coordination, steady and transient state voltage drop, transient/harmonic analysis, power factor corrections, arc flash protection (NFPA 70E), grounding step and touch potential using software by SKM Systems Analysis, Inc. Controls System Design Engineering : Perform energy management system scoping & design including advance metering requirement per EPACT 2005. Develop control schematics including sequences of operation. Structural Design Engineering: Perform preliminary/conceptual structural engineering of the feasibility of proposed additions or modifications to existing structures. Perform detail structural engineering (including calculations, drawings and specifications) for modifications and/or additions to existing structures, equipment foundations/supports and seismic anchorage of equipment. Requirements : In order to qualify, companies must meet the following requirement: Design Team Lead: The Principal of the awarded company is required to be a registered electrical or mechanical engineer in the State of California. The Principal will direct the work and be responsible for quality assurance. All work must be sealed by a CA licensed Engineer of the appropriate discipline. Design Team: The primary firm and each of its consultants must have a California registered professionals assigned to the project team. The following areas of expertise are required: Mechanical Electrical Controls Structural In addition, the design team must include a cost estimator (preferably ASCE or ASPE certified). Qualifications: All work must be sealed by a California licensed engineer of the appropriate discipline. Location : The Principals and leads assigned to this project (mechanical, electrical, controls, and structural) must be loc a ted w i t hin fifty ( 50) a ir miles f rom B e rk e l e y, CA. All companies must demonstrate the ability to respond to inquires by the University's Technical Manager within 24 hours. Documentation Compatibility : Each company must be able to generate, receive, or convert documents into Microsoft WORD, Microsoft EXCEL, Microsoft Project, and AutoCAD 2007.

Company Experience: The overall experience and technical competence of the company in performing similar work. The company must have specific experience within approximately the last five years involving upgrades, additions, alterations, modifications of laboratory, administrative, industrial and office buildings. The projects shall be listed in the Standard Form 330, Section F, and include any other supplemental information necessary to address this criteria. The company should have experience in cost effective environmentally sustainable design. Experience will be evaluated on the basis of breadth and depth, similarity to contemplated projects at Berkeley Laboratory, as well as the overall quality of design services represented by the projects described. Assignment of Personnel : Each company must identify principals and individuals to be assigned to work on projects under the subcontract. Designated individuals must have specific experience, within approximately the last five years, with projects involving upgrades, additions, alterations and modifications of laboratory, administrative industrial and office buildings.
