Sources Sought Notice for Architect - Engineering services for 632-22-118 - Evaluate Water System SYNOPSIS THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. THE GOVERNMENT WILL NOT PAY NOR REIMBURSE ANY COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH RESPONDING TO THIS REQUEST. THE GOVERNMENT IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO AWARD A CONTRACT AS A RESULT OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. The Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking a qualified Architect-Engineering (AE) firm to provide Schematics, Design Development, Construction Documents, Technical Specifications, Construction Period Services, Site Visits, Cost Estimates, As-Built Documentation, and all other related information for Project 632-22-118, Evaluate Water System at Northport VA Medical Center, 79 Middleville Road, Northport, NY 11768. This requirement is being procured in accordance with the Brooks Act as implemented in FAR Subpart 36.6. Applicable NAICS code is 541330 and small business size standard of $16.5 Million. Magnitude of Construction is between $250,000 and $500,000. This is a 100% Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) Set Aside. The anticipated award date of the proposed Architectural and Engineering Contract is on or before June 30, 2023. Potential contractors must be registered in SAM (www.sam.gov) and visible/certified in Vet Biz (https://www.vip.vetbiz.va.gov) at time of submission of their qualifications in order to be considered for an award. As a prospective offeror or bidder for this Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set aside, you are verifying your company meets the status requirements of a SDVOSB concern as established by VAAR 852.219-10. NOTE - Offerors are referred to 852.219-11 (d)(1) Services. In the case of a contract for services (except construction), it will not pay more than 50% of the amount paid by the government to it to firms that are not VIP-listed SDVOSBs. In order to assure compliance with this clause, all firms submitting a SF330 for this Sources Sought Notice are required to indicate what percentage of the cost of contract performance will be expended by the concerns employees and in which discipline(s) and percentage of cost of contract performance to be expended (and in what disciplines) by any other subcontracted or otherwise used small or large business entity(s). Any subcontracted or otherwise business entity(s) used must be identified by name, office location and size/type of business (i.e. SDVOSB, VOSB, 8(a), large, etc). Due to modifications that were done to the structures over the years, the underground utilities serving such structures have been modified. These changes are oftentimes executed in the form of projects which cover only the areas of the structure that are being modified and the immediate areas surrounding it. These projects therefore result in as-builts limited to the areas under their respective scopes of work. The original master site plan therefore has not been updated as a result of these independent projects. Smaller-scale projects may have resulted in changes to the original as-built conditions and will need to be captured in this effort due to the lack of documentation. Some drawings for these types of projects are existing and will be made available to the A/E. The scope of this project is to generate an existing as-built site plan of the domestic water and Fire Water services at the Northport VA campus. In order to show a true representation of these utility services in their current state, the VA Contracting Officer (CO) and Contracting Officer Representative (COR) will provide access to the existing legacy drawings which could be in any of the following format(s): mylar, sepia, blueprints, paper, PDF, etc. The final product shall be a completed Computer Aided Design (CAD) drawing in a licensed AutoCAD 2020 or latest version and current Adobe Acrobat PDF format files, depicting the as built layout of the domestic and fire water systems. The background or site plan used accurately depict the campus and its structures, buildings, etc. to provide a true representation of the campus state at the time of this project s completion. The A/E shall also provide PDF(s) and paper copies of this work. The As-Built drawings shall be signed and sealed. Submission shall be subject to the approval of the CO. The A/E shall obtain the services of subcontractors as necessary to conduct any topographic surveys, subsurface utility survey and other such investigations as required.
