Description

Pre-Solicitation Notice: The General Services Administration (GSA), Region 10, Public Buildings Administration is pleased to announce an opportunity for qualified design and construction firms to participate in a competitive procurement for the award of design-build construction services for tenant improvements of offices and related infrastructure on the 6th and 11th floors of the United States District Courthouse Seattle (Building WA0102ZZ) located at 700 Stewart Street, Seattle, WA 98101-1271. The work will be performed on behalf of the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Office of Medicare Hearings and Appeals (OMHA), and includes full design by highly qualified Washington State registered architects, engineers, and other appropriately credentialed professionals for disciplines including architecture, structural, electrical, mechanical, fire/life/safety, security, acoustics, audio/visual, and interior design. Demolition and construction work includes, but is not limited to, general construction/carpentry, Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC), fire/life/safety, electronic security, telecommunications, finish work, audio/visual, electrical, flooring/carpentry, patching & painting, potential furniture moving and related work. For security portions of the work (FIPS 201, FICAM, HSPD12, Physical Access Control Systems (PACS) and Intrusion Detection Systems), specialized subcontractors that are on listed of qualified vendors at www.idmanagement.gov will be required to be utilized. The work will be required to be phased as spaces become available at different dates and times. As such, close coordination will be required with building tenants. Also, there is high probability that there will be no onsite laydown areas other than in the spaces that the work is being performed. The same applies for onsite waste/debris containers as the containers will not be allowed in or around the building due to security reasons. Disposal will need to occur on an as needed basis. Expectations: All on site contractor team working onsite will need to be cleared through GSA and OPM. As such, it is requested that you carefully consider the security processing capabilities of your firm and associated subcontractors. The current process is taking approximately 30 to 45 days or more after a fully completed and accurate package is received. Contractor personnel must be prepared to complete online security questionnaires and obtain fingerprinting at one of the local facilities within the greater Seattle region, The Contractor will need to closely plan and coordinate with the Government to meet GSA, HHS OMHA, requirements for design reviews, material deliveries, and access to high security areas (U.S Marshall's Service). A Project Development Study (PDS) was produced for this procurement by the consulting firm of ECH Architecture PS, in conjunction with sub-consultants including Notkin Mechanical Engineers, Veltre Engineering, Inc., Reid Middleton, Inc., Stantec, and HMS Inc. A copy of that PDS will be provided as part of the Design-Build Construction Solicitation, minus any information that is considered procurement sensitive. An organizational conflict of interest may exist for these firms which may prevent their involvement with potential Offerors for the design-build construction procurement for which this pre-solicitation notice is being provided (specific details will be provided regarding whether said firms may be utilized during the competitive procurement). It is noted that the project will include requirements for brand-name equipment, systems, and services for which an approved Justification will be provided. Brand-name products and services to be included in the approved justification will include PACs as well as existing systems installed within the building (building automation system, HVAC, Fire/Life/Safety, etc.). MAGNITUDE: The anticipated magnitude of the project is $5,000,000 and $10,000,000, including all design and construction and related work. COMPETITION: Full and Open.
