Description

These are Small Business set-aside contracts. Large businesses will not be considered. Small business size standard North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) number is ?541330?, $4.0 million annual average over a three year period. The work includes two indefinite quantity contracts for mechanical and electrical design engineering services with multi-disciplinal architectural and engineering support services necessary for the preparation of studies and plans, specifications, and construction cost estimates ready for bidding for various locations within the Naval District Washington Public Works Center and the Engineering Field Activity Chesapeake regions - Washington, DC, VA and MD. Both design-bid-build (full plans and specifications) and design/build project formats will be used. It is anticipated that work associated with these contracts will include the designs and studies for predominantly facility repair and renovation type projects. Some work may include new facility and addition type projects. Potential mechanical projects include: piping systems (fuel, natural gas, high temperature water, domestic water, compressed air, vacuum, etc.); exterior above & underground heat distribution systems; boiler plants, waste systems-facilities; heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems; and energy management & direct digital control (DDC) systems. Potential electrical projects include exterior overhead and underground distribution; high, medium, low voltage substations, switchgear and relaying; interior electric power distribution systems; emergency power systems; uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems; 400 Hz medium and low voltage power distribution systems and equipment; roadway, street, and protective area lighting systems; and lightning protection, grounding and cathodic protection systems. Any other mechanical and electrical projects will require the same basic professional skills. In addition, related work may include related security, communication, fire protection, general site improvements, and facility infrastructure support. Familiarity with associated DoD Anti-Terrorism/Force Protection (AT/FP) requirements is required. Familiarity with Sustainable Design through an integrated design approach is required. Interior design services may be required - familiarity with mandatory sources of procurement, i.e., Federal Prison Industries (FPI), GSA schedules, etc. Is required. Coordination with the National Capital Planning Commission, The Commission of Fine Arts, and the Maryland National Capital Parks and Planning Commission may be required. The preparation of comprehensive storm water management plans for the State of Maryland and the Commonwealth of Virginia may be required. Although none is now known, the possibility of hazardous materials, i.e., asbestos, lead paint, PCB, may exist at the project sites. If hazardous materials are encountered, the A/E Contractor will be required to conduct hazardous material removal surveys, including testing and sampling, provide design removal procedures and prepare construction contract documents in accordance with applicable rules and regulations pertaining to such hazardous materials. All hazardous materials licenses and/or accreditations necessary for the locality of the project sites are required by the A/E firm or their subcontractors. The general intention is to provide for such design and engineering services as necessary to support the procurement of these contracts. Services, such as technical reports and studies, site investigations, programming, concepts, contract documents - drawings, specifications and construction cost estimates, surveys, shop drawings reviews, construction consultation and inspection, Title II, and preparation of construction record drawings and O&M manuals, may be required at any time up to the final acceptance of all work. The selected A/E contractor for each contract will be required to provide overhead, profit, and discipline hourly rates initially to the Contracting Officer within 10 days after receiving notification. The selected firm will also be required to participate in an orientation and site visit meeting (when requested) within 10 days of notification and provide a fee proposal within 10 days after receiving the Request for Proposal. Each delivery order will be a firm fixed price A/E type contract. The maximum duration of each contract will be for the period of five years. The total amount for each contract will not exceed $5 million. Design and engineering services will be subject to the availability of funds. The estimated start date is November 2002. Selection evaluation criteria, in relative order of importance are: 1.a. Specialized experience and professional qualifications of the firm (with its subcontractors), and the proposed project team (the team/office actually accomplishing the work) in providing complete mechanical and electrical design and engineering services with multi-disciplinal architectural/engineering support services for the requirements as described herein; 1.b. Specialized mechanical and electrical design and engineering services associated with repair and renovation type projects; 1.c. Knowledge and demonstrated experience in applying sustainability concepts and principles to facilities and infrastructure through an integrated design approach; 1.d. Knowledge and demonstrated experience in applying Anti-Terrorism/Force Protection (AT/FP) techniques; 2.a. Demonstrate capabilities in sustained accomplishment of work within established time limits for multiple and simultaneous delivery orders; 2.b. The firm?s and project team?s present workload; 3. Past performance and process of the prime A/E firm (and subcontractors) in the firm?s quality control/quality assurance program to assure coordinated technically accurate studies, plans, specifications, and construction cost estimates; 4. Preference will be given to firms with the demonstrated capability of using CAD, SPECSINTACT, SUCCESS cost estimating system, and Means Cost Estimating Guidelines; 5. Preference will be given to firms located within a 150-mile radius of EFA Chesapeake. Each firm?s past performance(s) and performance ratings will be reviewed during the evaluation process and can affect the selection outcome. Firms which meet the requirements listed in this announcement are invited to submit one copy each of the completed Standard Forms (SF) 254 and 255, U.S. Government Architect-Engineer Qualifications, to the office indicated below. Site visits will not be arranged during the advertisement period. Interested firms are requested to include telefax numbers, the Contractor Establishment Code (CEC), - formerly the DUNs number, and Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) on the SF 255 and SF 254 in Blocks 3a and 1, respectively. Interested firms are also requested to include their A/E Contractor Appraisal Support System (ACASS) number on the SF 255 in Block 3.

A/E contractors will only have to provide this information once with annual updates or as key company information changes occur. Registration can be accomplished through the World Wide Web at http//www.acq.mil/ec; through any DOD Certified Value Added Network; or a paper may be obtained by calling the DOD Electronic Commerce Information Center at 1-800-334-3414.
