This is a modification of the synopsis published in the Commerce Business Daily on 13 Mar 96. Firms who have already submitted SF 254 and SF 255 need not resubmit SF 254 and SF 255. This modification is to change the Standard Industrial Classification Code from 8712 to 8711, to delete the sentence which read ``Open-end AE contracts may be competed based on price between the top five AE firms'', and to deleted the works ``based on price'' in the sentence ``Delivery orders will be competed based on price between two or more AE firms''. All other items remain unchanged. Standard Industrial Classification Code 8711, Architect-Engineer (AE) services are required for design of miscellaneous construction projects and supporting services at Vandenburg AFB, California. Open-end AE contracts will be issued for a one year period (basic year) with an additional one year period (option year) if the Government chooses to extend the contract. Individual delivery order fees issued under this contract will not exceed $250,000.00, with the exception of the initial delivery order which may exceed this limitation. The total fees for the basic year will not exceed $500,000.00. The total fees for the basic and option years combined will not exceed $1,000,000.00. A minimum of $10,000.00 in fees will be issued under the contract. Delivery orders will be issued as needed throughout the contract period. Delivery orders may be competed between two or more AE firms. Design services are required for the renovation, repair and maintenance of residential, commercial, and industrial facilities. Design services include the preparation of drawings in AutoCAD and specifications in CSI format.

However, other design services that may be needed are any combination of architectural, structural, civil, mechanical, electrical, sanitary, fire protection, landscape architectural, and cathodic protection. Non-design services that may be needed are construction management, asbestos and lead testing, and environmental. The primary discipline must be accomplished by the AE firm, but other disciplines maybe accomplished by qualified consultants.
