Description

The General Services Administration (GSA) Design Excellence Program seeks to commission architects, engineers, and construction professionals to maintain and modernize our legacy federal buildings for the next 50 to 100 years of service. These projects are to demonstrate the value of integrated design that balances historic significance with current needs; balances aesthetics, cost, constructability, and reliability; and creates environmentally responsible and superior workplaces for civilian federal employees. In this context, GSA announces an opportunity for Design and Construction Excellence in public architecture for performance of Architectural Engineering Design and Construction services in accordance with GSA quality standards and requirements.� As required by law, regulation or Executive Order, all facilities will meet performance targets and security requirements. The GSA intends to award a Design-Build (DB) contract for the modernization of the existing historic Potter Stewart U.S. Courthouse elevators located in Cincinnati, OH, pursuant to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Two-Phase Design-Build Selection Procedures (FAR Subpart 36.3). The Potter Stewart U.S. Courthouse is a historic building, located on one city block between Walnut and Main Street on 5th Street in Cincinnati, Ohio. It is on the National Register of Historic Places. The courthouse is home to several court systems, judicial offices and government administrators. The eight passenger elevators were installed by Warner Elevator Company in 1937. They were renovated and modernized in 1992 by General Elevator Company. As part of the renovation the machine room control panels, car and hoistway door equipment, pushbuttons and wiring were replaced. Some of the equipment is original and has been in service for 70+ years. The elevator hoist machines and motor generator sets have exceeded their useful life and require replacement. The contract will be awarded for a firm fixed-price for the design-build services.�� This project will utilize the Design-Build (DB) delivery method, with the DB contract procured by competitive negotiation using a two-phase design-build selection procedure (FAR 36.2).� A single DB contract will be issued for a revised design concept submission, Design Development Phase and Construction Documents Phase services, as well as all construction work and any/all required specialty construction work.� For this contract award process, GSA will issue a Solicitation consisting of Phase I and Phase II, respectively.��� The purpose of Phase I (the request for qualifications) is to select the most highly qualified Offerors from Phase I to participate in Phase II (the request for proposals).� At the conclusion of Phase I, GSA will invite the Short-Listed Offerors to submit Phase II proposals.� Phase II proposals will require submission of technical and price proposals, which are evaluated separately in accordance with FAR Part 15. Potential Offerors are hereby placed on notice that GSA will publicly announce the names of the Phase I ""short-list"" on SAM.gov.�� Maximum number of short-listed Offerors: A maximum of three (3) Offerors will be selected to proceed to Phase II.�� At the conclusion of Phase II, GSA intends to award a contract to a single Offeror for all design and construction services.�� This contract will be a full and open procurement, available to both large and small business firms.� As part of the Phase II proposal, large business Offerors will be required to submit an acceptable small business subcontracting plan in accordance with FAR Part 19.7.� The Request for Qualifications will be issued electronically on or about September 12, 2022 at http://www.SAM.gov.� A Pre-Proposal meeting will be held on or about September 21, 2022, at 1:00pm at the Potter Stewart U.S. Courthouse, in Cincinnati, OH.� Prospective attendees are required to submit an RSVP form, which will be included in the solicitation package, to the GSA Contracting Officer, Anna Vanko, via e-mail at anna.vanko@gsa.gov.� Call in reservations will not be accepted. This meeting is intended to review the scope of the project and the submittal requirements.� Please note, if Hamilton County Ohio is listed as a High Transmission area for Covid-19 at the time of the PreProposal Conference, (status may be checked here: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/your-health/covid-by-county.html), masks will be required while inside the Potter Stewart U.S. Courthouse, and must be worn at all times.
