- Sources Sought Notice This announcement is open to all business concerns. This is a Sources Sought Notice and is for informational purposes only. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS, QUOTATIONS, OR BIDS. Per Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 15.201(e), responses to this notice are not offers and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. Responses do not affect a potential offeror's ability to respond to any future synopsis/solicitation. The Government will not provide reimbursement for any information that may be submitted in response to this notice. Respondents are solely responsible for all expenses associated with responding to this notice. The General Services Administration (GSA), Public Buildings Service (PBS), Region 05 is conducting a market survey seeking qualified SUPPLIERS AND OR MANUFACTURERS to provide construction services for the Hilfiker Wall Repair in Sault Ste Marie, Michigan.�� � PROJECT INFORMATION The contractor will be responsible to provide all labor, materials, transportation, supervision, and management to perform construction, as it relates to the following: The Hilfiker mechanically stabilized earth retaining wall has distress in the form of bulging welded wire baskets, vertical and horizontal displacement of the concrete on top of the wall, and an outward lean of the walls has been noted in the Hilfiker wall system for several years. The proposed project will address the bulging wire baskets and outward lean of the wall as well as correct poor drainage that has contributed to the wall�s movement. The project will construct a new earth retention soil nail wall and re-slope the concrete parking area above the Hilfiker wall, fortifying the wall and protecting it from continued corrosion. The construction contractor will be required to provide an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for its proposed low embodied carbon concrete (including cement) & steel (rebar) that meets the Global Warming Potential (GWP) limits. �See following link to Inflation Reduction Act Pilot Program: Interim IRA Low Embodied Carbon Materials Requirements and Interim IRA LEC Material Requirements Fact Sheet. �https://www.gsa.gov/system/files/Interim%20IRA%20LEC%20Material%20Requirements%20-%20used%20in%20Pilot%20May%202023%2005162023.pdf The NAICS code applicable to this proposed procurement is 236220�with a size standard of $45M.� The PSC/FSC is Z2QA. The estimated construction price range for this project is between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. Estimated contract duration is approximately 6 months from notice to proceed. It is anticipated that this project will be funded using the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) funding. For GSA, it will make our federal buildings more sustainable, higher performing, and more cost-efficient through next generation technologies and low-embodied carbon materials - accelerating efforts to achieve a net zero federal footprint, catalyzing American innovation and saving taxpayers millions in energy costs.� Embodied carbon refers to the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with the production, use, and disposal of construction materials. PROCUREMENT INFORMATION GSA anticipates issuing a solicitation, based on the outcome of this market survey, on or about January 2024, and awarding a subsequent contract on or about April 2024. Award of any resulting procurement will be made using best-value, source selection procedures incorporating tradeoffs between price-related and non-price related factors.� The anticipated contract will be awarded on a firm-fixed price basis.� A source selection evaluation factor will be included that favors the provision of IRA-Eligible Materials with the lowest possible GWP. Offerors will propose materials that meet Top 20% Limits, Top 40% Limits, or Better Than Average Limits and will be scored accordingly.� Materials meeting the Top 20% limit are scored higher. GSA anticipates the solicitation will require proposals to include EPDs to support the proposed materials. SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUPPLIERS AND MANUFACTURERS GSA is seeking suppliers and manufacturers that are interested in supplying low embodied carbon concrete (and cement) & steel (rebar) materials for the project. Suppliers and manufacturers of materials meeting GSA�s Interim Inflation Reduction Act Low Embodied Carbon Material Requirements may submit an Expression of Interest by December 21, 2023 to sherri.turner@gsa.gov AND rebecca.schultz@gsa.gov . The subject line should state �Expression of Interest for Hilfiker Wall Repairs Project, Sault Ste. Marie, MI�� Expressions of Interest should indicate materials available and global warming potential values reflected in materials� environmental product declarations. Submission of an expression of interest grants GSA your permission to publish your firm�s contact information and offerings for use by potential offerors on the construction requirement. Supplier and manufacturer contact information will be published in an informational amendment issued by GSA. By participating in the competition, offerors consent to GSA sharing their suppliers� names and the global warming potential values associated with suppliers� materials with the successful offeror. Technical solutions, supplier pricing, and supplier-offeror terms and conditions will not be shared, in accordance with the Procurement Integrity Act. All information submitted is subject to verification. Additional information may be requested to substantiate responses.� Reimbursement costs for information received are not authorized.
