- Description
- Document Security Notice that is required to be completed and submitted with the request for the Solicitation Package. Project Summary: The General Services Administration (GSA) is seeking qualified general contractors to perform a partial seismic upgrade and related improvements needed due to impact on architectural finishes and MEP systems at the Frank Hagel Federal Building, 1221 Nevin Avenue, Richmond, California. The award of this contract is subject to the availability of funds. The Frank Hagel Federal Building, which serves as the regional headquarters for the Social Security Administration (SSA), is located at 1221 Nevin Avenue in Richmond, California. The building complex consists of a six story office tower with penthouses and a one story auditorium that share a common podium slab and a one story basement. The basement, tower and auditorium were built in 1975 with a total area of approximately 630,000 square feet. A one story, 2,100 square foot day care center was built in 1996 on the same site as an independent addition. The building complex does not currently meet the seismic safety standards for existing buildings that have been adopted by GSA, and hence the following key deficiencies will be retrofitted under this contract: • Steel moment frame and selected gravity system column splices within the office tower; • Steel moment frame base anchorage within the office tower; • Selected precast concrete cladding system attachments at the office tower; and • Auditorium roof framing supports at the interface with the office tower. Construction of the structural improvements to the steel moment frames will impact architectural finishes and MEP systems. In the basement and at the 2nd and 4th floors, partitions and work stations will be removed around the steel moment frame and gravity columns to expose the column base and column splices. Finishes will be restored after the structural work has been completed. Impacts to MEP systems are minor, mainly consisting of temporarily supporting items attached to the partitions, and reinstalling them when the partition is restored. Cladding system improvements will be performed from both the interior and exterior of the building. At the interior locations, wall finishes and part of the ceiling will be removed to expose the concrete cladding panels. After the new connections are installed, the partition and ceilings will be restored. At the exterior locations, the cladding connections will be accessed by means of coring holes through the panels. These holes as well as saw-cut slots to be provided at other locations in order to afford more movement between the panels, will require architectural closure and treatment. MEP and data shafts generally occur at the perimeter of the building, and as such will also be impacted by the cladding system improvements. Mechanical ducting, hot water and chiller lines as well as limited lighting controls and electrical panels will need to be relocated for access. Some of the finishes and systems contain hazardous materials which will require abatement prior to their removal. Construction will be performed in phases so as to allow for continued use of the building. Unused space in the basement will be improved and temporary space will be created in the Auditorium and sixth floor as part of the project to create the necessary office swing space. This work will consist of installation of new flooring and ceilings and repairs of existing wall finishes. Selected improvements will also be made in these areas to better accommodate the program, including reconfiguring partition walls, installation of access flooring, installation of new energy efficient lighting, and installation of new energy efficient HVAC terminals. Fire life safety systems will be reconfigured as needed, including replacement of sprinkler heads, fire-stopping at existing walls where required by code, and increasing exit capacity through upgrades to existing exiting via the garage driveway. The cost of construction is estimated in the range of $18,000,000 to $23,000,000. The period of performance is estimated to be thirty-three (33) months after the issuance of the Notice to Proceed (NTP) by the GSA Contracting Officer. Acquisition Strategy: This is a competitive acquisition source selection using the best-value trade-off process to award a firm fixed price contract. This procurement will be advertised for Full & Open Competition. This source selection is based on FAR Part 15 and GSAM. The evaluation process will result in selection of the proposal that represents the best value for the Government in terms of technical and price factors as identified in the solicitation and in accordance with FAR Part 15.3.
