- Questions and Answers #5 THIS IS A REVISED SYNOPSIS, AS OF 10 OCTOBER 2014: This request is issued on an unrestricted basis. This is not a solicitation or request for proposal; this synopsis is for the purpose of soliciting SF 330's from Architect-Engineer firms in order to select the most highly rated firms for the purpose of possible discussions. There is no specific design effort being solicited. This is an Architect-Engineer (A-E) service acquisition for a firm-fixed price indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract for a base period of one year and four option periods of one year each. The NAICS Code is 541330. The resultant solicitation and award will be accomplished in accordance with the Brooks A-E Act as implemented in the procedures of the Federal Acquisition Regulation, Subpart 36.6. A-E services are required for development of plans, specifications and cost estimates suitable for bidding and repairs, renovations, alterations, upgrades, possible replacement (new construction), and associated demolition work for various/potential projects primarily at Seymour Johnson AFB and occasionally at Dare County Bomb Range and Fort Fisher in NC. A. Type of Work: North Carolina Registered Professional A-E services with the required disciplines of architectural, structural, civil, environmental, electrical, fire protection, and mechanical. Field surveying, geotechnical, landscaping design and architectural rendering capabilities must be identified. Disciplines and capabilities may be represented within the same firm or with consultants that regularly work with the primary firm. A-E services for these projects will be accomplished under Task Orders written against the IDIQ contract. The selected A-E firm will be required to participate in an orientation, scope of work and site visit meetings (when requested) within 7 calendar days after receiving the request for proposal for a project that will result in a task order. The maximum monetary limit for all task orders under this contract shall not exceed $4,900,000.00 with the maximum task order amount of $500,000.00. The guaranteed minimum for the IDIQ contract is $2,000.00 for the life of the contract. The work involved is multi-disciplined and includes, but is not limited to architectural, structural, civil, environmental, plumbing, electrical, fire protection, site work, and mechanical requirements. Field surveying, geotechnical investigation, landscaping design, and architectural rendering capabilities may be required. Familiarity with sustainable design through an integrated design approach is required. Familiarity with English and metric system of measurements is required. The firm must also be able to provide on-site engineering to perform complete/partial designs, design reviews, cost estimates, etc. on an on-call basis for one (1) to five (5) days per week (not every week, just as needed based on workload), part-time and/or full-time on-site project specific construction inspection, contract administration and field engineering services. All drawings are to be D size (24" x 36") in paper and electronic attachment, DWG format and shall be 100% compatible with Computer Assisted Design Drawing Software (CADD). Documentation shall be furnished with each drawing file detailing layer usage, and scale information for drawings. CADD Drawings shall conform to SJAFB CADD standard which is based on the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers CADD STD 4.0 dated July 2009. CADD drawing sets shall use the Drawing Sheet Set Manager, drawing templates, and layer standards as described in SJAFB CADD standards. Title blocks shall remain unaltered and title block data shall be updated utilizing the Sheet Set Manager. The selected firm must have the capability of providing final drawings formatted in AutoCAD 2012 or higher, drawings produced using AutoCAD LT versions are unacceptable. Each final drawing set shall be provided using the "E-Transmit" function of AutoCAD, and provided on CD-ROM formatted for the Windows operating system. On occasion, Building Information Modeling (BIM) may be requested or required (see http://www.wbdg.org/references/afbim.php). Firms are reminded of the requirement in FAR 36.601-3(a), which states that the construction design specifications shall require the maximum practicable use of recovered materials considering the performance requirements, availability, price reasonableness, and cost-effectiveness. The possibility of hazardous materials, i.e., asbestos, lead paint, and other materials may exist at project sites. All hazardous materials licenses and/or accreditations necessary for the locality of the project site are required by the A-E firm or its sub-contractors. The general intention is to provide for such design and engineering services as necessary to support the procurement of construction requirements/ acquisitions. For the Government to retain maximum flexibility in the interest of their clients, various services/products, such as technical reports, studies, site investigations, concept designs, cost estimates, surveys, shop drawings reviews, construction consultation and inspection, Title II, preparation of construction record drawings, and O&M manuals, may be required at any time up to final acceptance of all work. All offerors are required to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database prior to receiving a contract award.
