General Information The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Forensic Chemistry Center (FCC) located at 6751 Steger Drive, Cincinnati, OH 45237. The FCC serves as a premier national forensic laboratory for method development, research and analysis related to regulatory, chemical contaminant and counter-terrorism issues concerning foods, drugs and other FDA regulated products. The capabilities and expertise of the FCC provide support to FDA agents, investigators and officials to help assure that the consumer is protected from fraudulent and harmful products and terrorism. The estimated Design price range is $1,000,000 to $5,000,000 Project Description The General Services Administration (GSA) intends to award a firm fixed-price, Architect/Engineer Design Excellence contract for the FDA Forensic Chemistry Center in Cincinnati, OH. GSA proposes a repair and alteration project for the Department of Health and Human Services, FDA FCC located at 6751 Steger Drive in Cincinnati, OH. The proposed project will modernize the building's outdated systems and expand FDA's laboratory spaces in order to meet the agency's long-term requirements. The FCC was constructed in 1998 as a build-to-suit lease specifically for FDA's use. GSA exercised a lease purchase option and assumed ownership of the asset in June 2018. The building, which is located on a 8-acre site within the City of Cincinnati, has approximately 77,000 gross square feet, one story above grade, and underground parking for 29 spaces. The building is steel framed with concrete and steel curtain wall. FDA's requirement for laboratory space at this location has expanded over the years. A building addition was constructed in 2004. The project also proposes the buildout of approximately 20,400 usable square feet of office space at the John Weld Peck Federal Building in Cincinnati, OH. The space will house the FDA District Office that is currently located in the FCC and a component of FDA office space that is in a leased space. The office space consolidation in the Peck Federal Building will allow for the needed expansion of laboratory space in the FCC. The project scope includes demolition of the existing FDA's District Office space of approximately 12,000 USF at the FCC to accommodate the expansion of the FDA's laboratory. Existing lab areas will be partially demolished and upgraded with new finishes. Renovations will be made to the buildings systems including HVAC upgrades, lighting upgrades, emergency power upgrades, replacement of the fire protection system, restroom upgrades, and improvements to the loading dock. Unique Situations/Risks The project will be compliant with the Design Excellence Guiding Principles and GSA's Design Excellence Program. The design team’s approach must produce a lab facility in compliance with the current edition of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Design Requirement Manual.
