Description

This is a solicitation announcement. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) will be soliciting bids utilizing full and open competition for the construction of Phases I, II, III, IV and V of the Academy-Wide Masonry Repair and Restoration Project at the FBI Academy, U.S. Marine Corps Base, Quantico, Virginia 22135. The original 1972 FBI Academy encompassed a total of eleven (11) masonry buildings. Over the past 32 years, all of these original masonry buildings have suffered exterior surface damage and discoloration as well as serious water infiltration as a result of deterioration of the masonry (brick) units, deterioration of the masonry mortar and deterioration of the ?expressed? concrete structural elements. Poor 1972 masonry construction on many buildings as well as poor design detailing at several conditions has contributed to serious water infiltration into the buildings. Additionally, many of the buildings have architectural features that involve both horizontal and sloped brick surfaces. Many of these surfaces have deteriorated to the point that organic matter and plants have infiltrated the surface, which promotes water retention and accelerates the deterioration through the annual freeze-thaw cycle. Several of the areas have been unsuccessfully repaired in the past and these repairs have actually promoted further deterioration. The masonry restoration will be broken down and bid approximately yearly in the following phases: Phase I: Buildings 1, 2, 3, and 4, with Bldg. 5 as an Add Alternate; Phase II: Buildings 7 and 8; Phase III: Buildings 6, 9 and 10; Phase IV: Buildings 11, 12 and 16; and Phase V: Building 5 (if required). The masonry repair and restoration work for Phases I, II, III, IV and V consists of, but is not limited to the following work: scaffolding, landscape/lawn protection and repair, selective cutting and removal of face brick veneer and brick pavers, selective removal and repair of mortar joints in brick veneer, selective removal, salvage and reinstallation of metal coping and flashing, selective repair of spalled precast concrete beams, selective demolition and rebuilding of building parapets, mortar re-pointing, installation of new face brick, brick pavers, drainage boards, metal copings, EPDM base flashing, joint sealers, modified bitumen waterproofing membranes, new architectural precast concrete column caps, spandrel panels and parapet copings, misc. steel angles, reinforcing and anchors, concrete coatings and masonry cleaning. The estimated cost of the combined acquisitions is between $1,000,000 and $3,000,000. Bid, Payment and Performance Bonds are required. The FBI contemplates the award of a firm-fixed price contract as a result of this requirement. The bidder awarded the resultant contract shall be subject to background investigations on its company and all individuals assigned to the project.
