- Description
- 1. Can we use 11x17 foldouts in an 8 ½ x 11 vertical format? ANSWER: No. 2. Please confirm whether the $8M budget for the child care center, mentioned at the pre-proposal meeting of 12/3/09, is included within the $120M “construction cost at award” budget. ANSWER: The construction cost at award for the project is $120M. This includes the FBI complex, the Child Care Center, and the site work associated with the 399 surface parking spaces. 3(a) Under the “Selection Process” section, the “A/E Firm” is defined as an “individual, firm, partnership, association,” etc. which is clear. Please clarify the definition of “Lead Designer” and advise us whether the “Lead Designer,” if “a team of designers” may be a team consisting of two or more individuals from different firms which have formed an “association.” (b) At the end of the Q&A session somebody had asked if the GSA will accept (and equally consider) submittals from an association of two design firms. In our case it will be one large firm and one small firm with very different expertise. You had mentioned that you would post the answer on FedBizOpps but I haven’t seen anything yet. ANSWER: All submissions will be evaluated on the same basis, whether individual firms, joint ventures or partnerships. Joint Ventures, strategic alliances, and partnerships will be considered as a single entity, as such, the lead designer or team of designers may consists of individuals from the different firms. The firm must show (business agreement) or explain the business relationship. 4. Since the “Lead Designer” may be more than one individual please confirm that in such cases the GSA wants the “Philosophy and Design Intent” section to represent the collective thinking of the individuals who are, collectively, the “Lead Designer.” ANSWER: Correct, the philosophy should represent the collective thinking of the individuals who are, collectively, the “Lead Designer. 5. Since the “Lead Designer” may be more than one individual please confirm that in such cases the GSA wants the “Lead Designer Profile” section to profile the individuals who are, collectively, the “Lead Designer.” In such instances is this section limited to three pages total or three pages per individual? ANSWER: Profile must not exceed 3 pages for each (individual) Lead Designer. 6. For Stage 1, Section 3 “Lead Designer Profile” Can you clarify if the 3 page limit is per Lead Designer? Such as, if there were 3 Lead Designers can you have 3 pages per designer, with a total of 9 pages in this section. Or, is the section limited to just 3 pages? ANSWER: Profile must not exceed 3 pages for each Lead Designer. 7. For Stage 1, Section 4 “Lead Designer Portfolio” If there are 3 Lead Designers listed in Section 3, does that mean that you can have 2 projects for each of the Lead Designers? In that case, there could be a maximum of 6 projects profiled in Section 4 (with a maximum of 5 pages per project). Is this correct? ANSWER: If the Lead Designer is a team, portfolio can contain up to two projects from each Lead Designer not to exceed five pages per project.
