- Description
- General Decision (Wage Determination) NC160040 Wake County North Carolina Dated 8 Jan 2016 Design-Build (DB) 6th Floor Courtroom Alterations, Terry Sanford Federal Building and Courthouse, 310 New Bern Avenue, Raleigh, North Carolina 27601 The Design/Build (DB) Contractor shall provide all equipment, labor, materials, and supervision to accomplish the work stated in this Scope of Work and shown on the Design Intent Drawings furnished by the Government. There will be a Pre-Bid Meeting scheduled at the site to discuss the requirements of the project and the bid proposal, to view the project site, and to answer contractor questions. The DB Contractor shall investigate the project site and compare the furnished Design Intent Drawings, the Scope of Work, and other related documents with the existing conditions. Using this comparison, Contractors shall include in their cost proposals all work described in the bid documents that is required or reasonably implied to achieve the design intent of the bid documents. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer of any conflicts between the existing conditions and the renovation work, of any omissions or conflicts in the design intent drawings, or of any clarifications that are necessary. This project is the remodeling and expansion of an existing U.S. Magistrate Courtroom into a U.S. District Courtroom. The Design Phase of this project is scheduled to be approximately 150 calendar days in duration. The Contractor’s A/E shall make design submissions for review by GSA and the Courts after an initial pre-design meeting at the site. The design shall be based on the Design Intent Drawings, this Scope of Work, the GSA PBS Facilities Standards Handbook, the U.S. Court’s Design Guide, and any design clarifications discussed at the pre-design meeting. The A/E may visit the site to do site investigations as often as is needed. Those site visits shall be coordinated through the GSA Project Manager. There will be three design submissions at the following points: 65% complete, 95% complete, and 100% complete. Drawing submissions shall include cover sheet, demolition plans, architectural plans, mechanical plans, and electrical plans. All drawings shall be produced on CAD. Specifications may be put on the drawings. There will be on site review of the 65% design submission between the Government and the DB Contractor. Government reviews of design submissions do not relieve the DB Contractor from performing their own quality control, constructability, coordination, and code compliance reviews. Drawing levels of detail and quality of representation shall adhere to the AIA guideline “Architectural Graphic Standards.” All drawings sheets shall show a north arrow and graphic scale. All drawing sheets shall have the standard title block including all pertinent project and drawing information. All abbreviations and line types used shall be defined in on-sheet legends. All notes used shall be keyed to the plan showing where they apply unless they are general notes. The 100% design documents, with all corrections and comments addressed, shall be the construction documents used for the project. GSA and the Courts will still review the 100% design documents for completeness and may have additional comments if all previous comments have not been addressed by the A/E. All final 100% construction documents shall be sealed and signed by the responsible A/Es registered in North Carolina in good standing. The DB Contractor shall also review and approve the final construction drawings and specifications submitted by their A/E, especially to insure that all contract items are included therein. Omissions from the drawings or specifications or any misrepresentations (design omissions and errors) shall not relieve the DB Contractor from performing such intended work. Contract documents, including all amendments, shall rule over any discrepancies with the drawings and specifications. The A/E shall provide as-built drawings at the completion of the Construction Phase in CAD, PDF, and paper formats. The construction contractor shall furnish red lined construction documents to the A/E, showing all changes made during construction, for the A/E’s use in preparing the as-built documents. The DB Contractor should utilize the time during the Design Phase to complete other required tasks such as acquiring security clearances, providing submittals for approval, ordering materials, project planning and scheduling, etc. After the Design Phase is completed, the construction Notice to Proceed will be issued by the Contracting Officer if contractor security clearances have been acquired. The Construction Phase of this project is scheduled to be 150 days duration from Notice to Proceed to Substantial Completion. Project time delays caused by the DB Contractor or their subcontractors shall not warrant any extension of project work time. The DB Contractor will be required at their own expense to take actions to get the project back on schedule. If project time delays are caused solely by the Government or beyond the control of the DB Contractor, there will be a fair and reasonable, equitable time extension for performance of the contract. Determinations on delays are only determined by the GSA Contracting Officer. Government personnel are scheduled to occupy the building for work during the following hours on weekdays, Monday through Friday, except for established holidays: 7:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. The majority of the construction work can be done during these regular working hours. All work that may disturb the building tenants shall be done after hours (i.e. noisy work or work that causes fumes). The contractor shall figure on 10% of the work being done after hours. The Contractor will be asked to stop work when Court is in session based on the noise level. The Contractor should plan accordingly for these stoppages. The Contractor may work after hours for his convenience at no additional cost to the Government. After hours work must be preapproved before work is started. The Contractor will be required to hire security guards for after hours work. Contact information for the security guards will be furnished at the pre-proposal meeting or shortly thereafter. Any necessary power outages required by the work of this project must be preapproved and coordinated with GSA. All Contractor personnel that will work on site must have security background clearances. These clearances shall be processed online using a Government provided form. This process will be discussed at the Project Start-up Meeting and forms will be sent to the Contractor. A pictured identification badge (ID) will be issued by GSA to each individual once a clearance has been approved. Any of the DB Contractor’s personnel found not wearing their security badge will be asked to leave the premises and not return until the provided security badge is worn visibly on the person. The contractor shall protect adjoining areas and finishes from damage during construction. It is in the Contractor’s best interest to take thorough pictures of the project site which may show existing damage to items not addressed in the construction documents. This will insure that the Contractor is not held responsible for such pre-existing damage at a later date. Contractor shall transmit one set of pictures to the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) prior to beginning work. A “Poly” wall to prevent dust and debris from tracking through the building should be used to partition off the Work Area. Walk off mats shall be placed at all entrances to the work area for personnel to wipe their shoes on before exiting the work area. These walk off mats shall be cleaned daily. Contractor shall clean daily the public corridor outside the work area and any public area where the Contractor’s workmen have tracked dust or debris. The building cleaning staff is not responsible for cleaning behind the Contractor. Areas shall be as clean as they were before the project began on a daily basis. The Contractor shall at all times keep the work area free from accumulations of waste materials. Debris shall be removed on a daily basis. The Contractor shall provide their own dumpster and shall not use any other dumpster already on site. Before completing the work, the contractor shall remove from the work site and premises, all rubbish, tools, scaffolding, equipment and materials that are not the property of the Government. Upon completing the work and before requesting final inspection, the contractor shall leave the work area in a clean, neat and orderly condition satisfactory to the COR. The Contractor shall confine their operations to the project site area as indicated on the drawings. There is no parking on site for contractors. The contractor shall keep public areas, such as corridors, stairs, lobbies, and restrooms free from accumulation of construction debris and materials. Existing materials and equipment that are removed as part of the construction operations, and are not to be reused or turned over to the Government, shall become the property of the Contractor and shall be removed from the site. The Contractor shall be responsible for repairing or replacing damaged items or areas of the building structure, finishes, equipment, or tenant property resulting from work under this contract. The Contractor shall provide samples and submittals of all materials, (i.e. paint, stain, wall covering, carpet, rubber base, ceiling tiles, millwork, doors, frames, hardware, accessories, electrical items, etc.) to the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) for his written approval before ordering materials. Submittals may be transmitted to the COR by email. Contractor shall create and maintain a Submittal Log showing all submittals, when they were submitted, when they were approved or possibly rejected, and when they were resubmitted and approved if rejected. The Submittal Log shall be shared with the Government. The Contractor shall create and maintain an RFI Log including responses with dates of request and response. The RFI Log shall be shared with the Government. When the project is substantially complete and after performing their own inspection, the DB Contractor shall request a final inspection by the Government. The Government will provide a punch list to the DB Contractor upon completion of its final inspection. The DB Contractor shall complete the items on the punch list expediently. The project can be closed out after verification that all punch list items are complete, after any required O&M manuals have been received, after as-built drawings and specifications have been received, after all required attic stock is received, and after final invoice with release of claims has been submitted, approved, and paid. The Contractor shall guarantee and warranty all material and workmanship for one year from date of acceptance by the General Services Administration. The Contractor shall provide warranty contact information to the Government for use during the warranty period. The estimated price range is between $100,000.00 and $300,000.00. GSA anticipates issuing a solicitation for this project no later than Wednesday, March 30, 2016. The anticipated proposal due date is April 28, 2016. Oral communications, telecommunications, and faxed inquiries or comments are NOT acceptable as a response to this Notice. Only e-mail responses will be accepted.
