Small Business Set-Aside: N/A
Description: 1. CONTRACT INFORMATION: (a) General: This is a public announcement open to small businesses only. The procurement of the contract will be in accordance with Public Law (PL) 92-582, formally known as the Brooks Act, as implemented in the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 36.6. A firm-fixed-price contract will be negotiated for the required work. Applicants will be evaluated and selected based on their demonstrated competence and qualifications. The applicable North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) codes are 541310 for Architectural Services and 541330 for Engineering Services. To be eligible for contract award, a firm must be registered with the System for Award Management (SAM) database. Register via the SAM Internet site at https://www.sam.gov/. NO STATE-LEVEL certifications shall be accepted. (b) Pre-Proposal Conference: There will be no pre-proposal conference for this announcement. 2. PROJECT INFORMATION: A-E Services are required to develop a Value Engineering (VE) study for FY18 MILCON Camp Bullis Dining Facility at Joint Base San Antonio (JBSA) - Camp Bullis. Currently, there are four (4) facilities currently used to support operations for JBSA - Camp Bullis. These existing wooden facilities were constructed in the 1930s and have far exceeded their intended design lifespan. Two (2) of the facilities have been issued a Fire Safety Deficiency Code 1 for fire safety issues. In addition to being in a state of disrepair, the facilities are severely undersized and provide approximately half the space required to support feeding operations based on training throughout. Due to the lack of adequate space inside existing facilities, field feeding containers used to deliver food to personnel in the field must be washed outdoors. Exposure of the containers to the outside elements, risk food contamination as the containers have a potential to come in contact with insects and other wildlife. Due to the training environment, students do not have the means to dine off-base. There are no other food service options at JBSA - Camp Bullis. The US Air Force is responsible for providing meal service to JBSA - Camp Bullis in support of a joint field training mission and must be able to provide meals for 1,300 to 1,800 Airmen, Soldiers, Sailors and Marines during 90 minute meal periods. Primary training missions supporting by JBSA - Camp Bullis include the Air Force Security Forces School, the Medical Education and Training Campus Field Training Site, the Air Force Combat Convoy Course, the Live Tissue Training Site, and Interrogation and Detention Training. The goal of this project is to consolidate the multiple dining facilities spread across JBSA - Camp Bullis into a single, new dining facility. A single consolidated dining facility will optimize dining operations across JBSA - Camp Bullis and will also include a food preparation area to support the transport of approximately 600 field meals to students across the training ranges. Additionally, an existing Vehicle Maintenance Shop and parking is located at the proposed site of the new dining facility and will be demolished under a separate contract. The Government will construct a new 3,410 SM (36,705 SF) dining facility to support 1,300 - 1,800 personnel. Construction includes reinforced concrete foundations, structural steel frame with split faced concrete masonry unit veneer and a standing seam metal roof. The project includes utilities, site improvements, pavements, communications infrastructure and all other work necessary to make complete and useable facilities. The new facility will be designed in accordance with the DoD Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) 1-200-01, General Building Requirements, UFC 1-200-02, High Performance and Sustainable Building Requirements and UFC 4-010-01, DoD Minimum Antiterrorism Standards for Buildings. In addition to, the project will demolish 17 buildings (5101, 5105, 5106, 5107, 5110, 5122, 5123, 5124, 5288, 5289, 5290, 5291, 5292, 5293, 5294, 6202, and 6204), approximately 4,594 SM (49,449 SF). The A-E will prepare a value engineering analysis covering all design, construction and performance requirements to provide a complete and renovated facility. All work shall conform to the Unified Facilities Criteria and Air Force design criteria. The A-E will coordinate these items with the CESWF Project Design Team, Installation personnel, and local utility providers. Overall guidance is provided by the site specific Installation Design Guide. See the CESWF AEIM for additional design deliverable requirements. The Value Engineering team shall review the Designer of Record's Initial (35%) submittal, validate the Current Working estimate, conduct a VE workshop, and provide a VE Report. The VE team shall conduct the workshop in accordance with the format developed by the Society of American Value Engineers (S.A.V.E) International (Information, Function Analysis, Creative, Evaluation, Development, and Presentation). The VE Report shall include the following details: executive overview of the study/workshop and study/workshop results, value matrix, VE proposal worksheets and recommendations, and an appendix of all background documents. Detailed services will be denoted in the actual A-E Statement of Work. Reports shall be prepared using MS-Word (.doc). Firms will also be required to provide documents in PDF format. Prepare cost estimates utilizing the Corps of Engineers MII Computer Estimating System. The MII software will be provided by the Government with the database information purchased by the A-E. Other cost estimating software may be required. 3. SELECTION CRITERIA: The selection criteria are listed below in descending order of importance (first by major criterion and then by each sub-criterion). Criteria a-e are primary. Criterion f-h are secondary and will only be used as a "tie-breaker" among the technically qualified contractors.
