- Description
- Pursuant to the authority in FAR 6.302-1, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) intends to negotiate an increase of $167,000, from $1,505,000 to $1,672,000, under Contract NRC-HQ-13-C-10-0035 ("the contract") with the contractor, Eighth Day Design Inc., 7653 Leesburg Pike, Falls Church, VA 22043-2520. NRC uses this contract for its Architecture and Engineering (A&E) requirements for small and large scale construction projects at NRC Headquarters in Rockville, Maryland. A significant, but previously unanticipated, large scale space renovation and construction project known as the White Flint Consolidation Project emerged and is now underway in order to conform to the new GSA federal space standard mandate. The project requires the unanticipated space renovation and construction of two additional floors of the One White Flint North building. This work is necessary in order for the NRC to relocate some of its staff so that the space they currently occupy can be released for occupancy by another federal agency. The ceiling price on the contract has nearly been exhausted due in part to this unanticipated mandate. The NRC needs to increase the ceiling price on the contract to ensure sufficient ceiling price and scope to handle immediate A&E requirements for approved, funded, and scheduled construction projects related to the GSA space mandate until a new acquisition can be competed in the coming months to replace the contract. The unanticipated A&E services required for two additional floors will include: conducting engineer led field surveys, graphical surveys, analysis of existing work space and planned work space, preparing engineering studies, creating reports of recommended actions and /or design packages, developing program of requirements, cost estimates, test fits, space plans, design intent drawings (DIDs), construction documents (CD's), and project management. At the current contract utilization rate, the contract is estimated to exhaust its current ceiling price on or about March 31, 2016. NRC expects that it will take three or more months to complete the follow-on competitive acquisition and begin full use of the replacement contract. Therefore, without an appropriate increase in ceiling price to the contract that would accommodate NRC's previously unanticipated needs for that period of time, it would cause significant disruption to NRC's ability to address GSA's new space utilization rate mandate that requires federal government agencies to reduce their space footprint and standards it would also delay NRC's ability to relocate some of its staff so that the space they currently occupy can be released for occupancy by another federal agency.
