PROJECT INFORMATION: Architect-Engineer (A-E) design services, from initial site investigation through engineering services during construction, to support the Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD) Program. Projects may include design or rehabilitation of missile control buildings, industrial workshops, power plants, communications facilities, administration buildings, and various other facilities; new and rehab road work, utility work, and building systems work. The designs require contractor experien ce in radar, missile launch, and tactical support facilities and various other facilities that may be required. Designs may require specialized expertise in physical and electronic security systems, power distribution, instrumenta tion and controls, seismic engineering for essential facilities, High-Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse (HEMP) design, Failure Mode Effects Criticality Analysis (FMECA) and Reliability and Availability and Maintainability (RAM) analysis. Services may also re quire specialized environmental engineering designs to meet Federal, State, and local laws and regulations. Other design considerations may include cold regions, highly corrosive environments, and areas with high humidity. Projects may be located in the Continental United States (CONUS) with the possibility of an enhanced capability Outside the Continental United States (OCONUS). Services may require the need to consider OCONUS sites and applicable host nation design codes and standards. The Contractor shall have the ability to perform Value Engineering (VE) studies and prepare facility Operations and Maintenance (O&M) manuals. The Contractor shall be responsible for accomplishing designs and preparing drawings using computer-aided design and drafting ( CADD). All CADD data shall be supplied in Bentley Systems, three-dimensional, MicroStation, native electronic digital format (i.e., .dgn, .cel). The Contractor shall ensure that all digital files and data (e.g., model files, reference files, cell librari es) are compatible with the Governments target CADD system (i.e., basic and advanced CADD software, platform, database software), and adhere to the standards and requirements specified herein. The term compatible means that data can be accessed directl y by the target CADD system without translation, preprocessing, or post processing of the electronic digital data files. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to ensure this level of compatibility. CADD drawings shall be prepared in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Architectural/Engineering/Construction (A/E/C) Computer-Aided Design and Drafting (CADD) Standard. Specifications shall be processed and delivered in SpecsIntact software configuration. Electronic (ftp site and CD) and h ard copy submittals of drawings and specifications are required. The Government will only accept the final product that is fully operational, without conversion or reformatting, in the target software format, and on the target platform specified herein. The target platform is a personal computer, with a Windows operating system. Cost estimates must be prepared using the Corps of Engineers Micro Computer Aided Cost Estimating System (MCACES). Other reports and documents shall be provided the appropriate Microsoft Office component format. Work shall be submitted in hard copy format as well as digital.
