When the requirement is solicited, firms will be selected for negotiation based on demonstrated competence and qualifications for all of the required work. The Government anticipates issuing one (1) Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) for five (5) years for a maximum of 60 months and will not include optional time periods. The anticipated contract will have a total capacity not to exceed $45,000,000. If the contract is set-aside for Small Business, FAR 52.219-14, Limitation on Subcontracting, will be included in the contract. This clause requires that at least 50 percent of the cost of contract performance incurred for personnel shall be expended for employees of the concern. 2. PROJECT INFORMATION: The BMD program is in support of developmental and rehabilitation designs of missile launch, test, evaluation, administrative, training, tactical support facilities and various other facilities that may be required; new and rehab road work, utility work, security systems, and building systems work. The designs require expertise in determining the facility/weapons system interface requirements and the follow-on design of missile launch, test, evaluation, administrative, training, tactical support facilities and various other facilities that may be required. This IDC will provide advanced A-E designs for a new Missile Defense Complex (MDC) located at Ft. Drum, NY. The Missile Defense Complex is expected to be comprised of 20 Ground Based Interceptors (GBI) deployed in two 10 silo Interceptor Fields; two Readiness and Communications (R&C) Facilities; two In-Flight Interceptor Communication System (IFICS) Data Terminals (IDT) facilities; Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD) Communication Network (GCN;) supporting facilities; and power and other infrastructure which comprise the baseline CIS components. The Missile Defense Complex design may also include an expansion to a total of 60 GBI, comprised of two additional 20 silo Interceptor Fields with additional supporting mission facilities. This mission requires continuity due to the facility designs being an extension of the weapon systems being housed in the facilities. The interoperability will require continuity among the east coast homeland defense facilities and existing sites. Designer should be flexible to accommodate changing facility requirements as the weapon system requirements may change during the facility design process. Improvements that occur as a result of the evolution of weapon system design may drive modifications to the existing sites to assure operational conformity. Work requirements will be defined in the base contract as well as in specific Scope of Work (SOW) included in subsequent Task Orders (TO's). Overall, the services will include the preparation of design criteria, designs, specifications, design build RFP's, design analysis and studies, economic analyses, cost estimates and other services for missile launch, test, evaluation, training, tactical support and various other facilities. Other general A-E services include: Design Charrettes, Studies (to include value engineering studies) Site & infrastructure design, Development of design criteria for design-build contracts, and design of new construction and renovation projects for military installations and other non-military government agencies, Parametric Designs, Design work analysis, Geotechnical reports, Topographic surveys, Technical specifications, Wetland delineation and mitigation, Preparation of Permit applications and obtain permits, Preparation of Concept Designs, Final Designs and Site Plans, Hazardous Materials Abatement, Antiterrorism/Force Protection, Explosive safety design, Sustainable Design/LEED, Interior Design, Cold Weather Design, Building Information Modeling (BIM) Cost estimating using the latest version of M-CACES, PACES and MII [M2] software Construction phase services, including but not limited to design during construction, preparation of operation and maintenance manuals, shop drawing review, site visits and commissioning/start-up/fit-up design support 3.
