CONTRACT INFORMATION: A-E services are required for site investigation, site survey and geotechnical report (option), planning, engineering studies, concept design, final design (option), and construction phase services (option) for the subject project. The design will be prepared in the metric system of measurement. Construction cost estimates will be prepared on IBM-compatible personal computers using Corps of Engineers Computer-Aided Cost Estimating System (M-CACES) (software provided by Government) or similar software. Design drawings will be produced in a format fully compatible with Microstation 32 Version 4.0.3. or higher. The specifications will be produced in SPECSINTACT using Corps of Engineers Military Construction Guide Specifications. The responses to design review comments will be provided on Corps of Engineers Automated Review Management System (ARMS). Construction phase services may include preparation of operation and maintenance manuals and shop drawing approval. This announcement is open to all business regardless of size. The proposed services will be obtained by a negotiated Firm Fixed Price Contract. The estimated construction cost is greater than $10,000,000.00. Estimated starting and completion dates are October 1995 and August 1997, respectively. Before award of this contract, the firm (if not a small business concern) shall be required to present an acceptable Small Business and Small Disadvantaged Business Subcontracting Plan in accordance with Public Law 95-507. To meet the current subcontracting goals, 69% of the total subcontracted dollars must go to small business firms, 6.3% must go to small disadvantaged business firms, and 2.9% must go to woman-owned firms. The plan is not required with this submittal. A project specific design quality control plan must be prepared and approved by the Government as a condition of contract award, but is not required with this submission. 2. PROJECT INFORMATION: This project will consist of a centralized medical and dental clinic of approximately 72,000 gross SF to provide primary care services and dental care. Medical services will include primary care, aviation medicine, pharmacy, optometry, radiology, laboratory, audiology, immunization, physical exam, physical therapy, and associated administrative and support spaces. Dental service will include general dentistry, endodontics, periodontics, prosthodontics, orthodontics, and oral surgery.
