Description

This is a 15 DAY PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE provided for INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION FOR PROPOSALS AND NO CONTRACT WILL BE AWARDED FROM THIS NOTICE/SYNOPSIS, THEREFORE NO SF-330 FORM (OR A RESPONSE) IS REQUIRED AT THIS TIME. BACKGROUND The National Cemetery Administration (NCA) is one of three Administrations within the U.S Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) that provide for the delivery of services and benefits to Veterans. NCA is responsible for providing cemetery services to Veterans and other eligible persons pursuant to the provisions of the National Cemeteries Act of 1973 and other statutory authority and regulations (38 U.S.C. 2306, 38 U.S.C. Chapter 24, 38 CFR Parts 38-39.) NCA s responsibilities include the operation and maintenance of 134 national cemeteries, and the construction of new national cemeteries. PERFORMANCE PERIOD The performance period for the design of the project is 1,490 calendar days (395 days to bid documents and 1095 days for CPS) from Notice to Proceed (NTP). SITE LOCATION The site is located at 1158 Morgan Rd, Bridgeville, PA 15017 / Washington County southwest of Pittsburgh, PA. near the intersection of Morgan Road and I-79. PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS The purpose of this project is to enable an existing national cemetery to continue to provide burial services for eligible veterans in southwestern Pennsylvania. The National Cemetery of the Alleghenies serves Veterans of the greater Pittsburgh metropolitan area, northwestern West Virginia, and southeastern Ohio. This proposed development will provide an additional 10 years of continued burial service to an estimated Veteran population of approximately 258,300 who has been served by this national cemetery since it opened in August 2005. This project will provide an additional 10-year gravesite inventory for all burial options until FY 2031. In accordance with the master plan for the entire 292-acre site, this project will develop approximately 40 acres of the 202 undeveloped acres remaining. The design and documentation of this project will be accomplished following the National Cemetery Administration (NCA) Facilities Design Guide and the VA program Guide (PG-18-15, Volume D), A/E Submission Instructions for National Cemetery Projects. The design will culminate in the preparation of contract documents: construction drawings and specifications to be used for competitive bidding. This project will develop approximately 12,300 gravesites, including both casket and cremation sites in new burial sections. Also included in this project will be the cemetery expansion into the southern cemetery parcel bisected by the state-owned Morgan Road. This project will provide for the updating of the Master Plan for the northern (developed) parcel to reflect new developments and project the Master Plan into the remaining southern parcel of the property. While the expansion into this area will require a nominal new entrance feature, grade separated connector drive, access roads, irrigation, signage and furnishings, no structures are planned for this area within this project. This grade separated connector drive will be used by staff, maintenance personnel, and visitors to safely access the southern burial sections across Morgan Road. Within the developed northern acreage, this project will provide for irrigation improvements and some possible gravesite expansion areas (before expanding into the southern parcel). Nominal repairs/ improvements/ security enhancements will be performed to existing cemetery buildings. Unsuitable rock/coal will be excavated from burial areas and removed from the cemetery. An additional, third Committal Shelter will be constructed during this phase of development. This project will also include an evaluation of the existing structures and accomplish and retrofit/incorporate Guiding Principles for High Performance and Sustainable Buildings MOU and Renewable Energy Initiatives as required. Additionally, any FCA condition D or F corrections will be incorporated onto this project. Improvements to the irrigation system shall include expansion into the Phase 3 area, installing an alternate irrigation water source if feasible, and evaluating and correcting deficiencies in the existing system. A full complement of professional A/E design and construction administration disciplines are required including but not necessarily limited to architecture, landscape architecture, civil engineering, structural engineering, physical security specialist, environmental engineering, geo-technical and soils engineering, land surveyor, irrigation designer/water resource planner, construction inspectors, and traffic engineer. Typical services shall include master planning, schematic design, design development, construction documents, construction period services, site visits, record drawings, warranty period consultation, and special studies as required. Thank you for your interest.
