- United States Holocaust Memorial Museum (USHMM) Architect and Engineering (A-E) Services Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity Contract (IDIQ) CONTRACT INFORMATION: Architect-Engineer services are required for award of up to three Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity Contracts (IDIQ) to support the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC. The contract will be for one (1) base year and have options to extend for four (4) one-year option periods if the museum chooses to do so. The total five year (base and four one-year options) estimated cost for all contracts is approximately $2,500,000.00. The guaranteed minimum quantity shall be $25,000.00. Offerors must be capable of responding to and working on multiple task orders concurrently. Task orders will be competed among the selected contractors in accordance with a fair opportunity process based on the A-E's, specialized experience, customer satisfaction, and project requirements. The work will be for facilities of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC and the state of Maryland. This announcement is open to all businesses regardless of size. PROJECT INFORMATION: Since opening in April, 1993, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum has hosted over two million visitors annually. The Museum's exhibits and public programs are housed in a 258,000 square foot building, which in many ways evokes the Museum's subject matter. The Museum's staff offices are located primarily adjacent to the Museum in the Ross Administrative Center, a 45,000 square foot building which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and in leased office space elsewhere in the District of Columbia. The Museum's Shapell Collections, Conservation and Research Center is located outside of the District of Columbia. Modifications need to be made to accommodate the Museum's evolving programs as well as to address a number of maintenance issues. The Museum's Division of Operations is looking to issue IDIQ contracts with firms who will be able to design these adjustments in a manner which is architecturally compatible with either the Museum's or the Shapell Center's design aesthetic, or with the historic fabric of the Ross Administrative Center. These contracts will be overseen by the Museum Architect. As the projects are expected to range considerably in size, scope, and public visibility, it is anticipated that the Museum will establish contracts with multiple firms, at least one of which has an emphasis on historic preservation and materials conservation. The following services are expected to be contracted for as part of these contracts: complete design services including the preparation of construction contract drawings, specifications and cost estimates, both preliminary and final; site investigations; planning studies; preparation of presentation drawings, models, and sample boards; programming; space layouts; tenant space plans; interior design, including furniture and finish selection; shop drawing reviews; value engineering; construction services; post-construction services; and other required supplemental services if so requested by the Government. The firm may be required to provide construction phase and other services which may include preparation of operation and maintenance manuals, and commissioning/start-up/fit-up design support. Some projects will be initiated as part of this contract, and flow from programming and schematic design through construction documentation. Other projects will be based upon schematic designs provided by the Museum Architect. Design of exhibitions or new facilities are not anticipated to be contracted for as part of these contracts.
