E-MAIL: Lynn P. Southtage, lynn.southgate@msfc.nasa.gov. The A-E services to be provided under this procurement consist of field investigation, studies, final designs, specifications, and other engineering services, to upgrade the HVAC systems and the electrical systems in Buildings 4705 and 4708 at Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) in Huntsville, Alabama. This synopsis is to solicit firms interested in performing a design for the upgrades to this system. This project will require expertise in the following disciplines: building architecture, HVAC, electrical power distribution, electronic direct digital control systems, and instrumentation and energy management. The A-E firm shall show evidence of extensive experience in these disciplines and shall specifically show evidence of expertise in experience profile codes 001, 009, 015, 019, 023, 032, 043, 051, 061, 062, 079, 080, 089, 100, and 112. The design shall include removal of existing HVAC systems and electrical systems, and the installation of new, modern, up-to-date, energy efficient systems. It is anticipated that this will result in two separate designs. One will be for Building 4705 and one will be for Building 4708. The work will be awarded to a single firm. The estimated construction cost for these two projects is $18,000,000. The project is being synopsized in anticipation of selecting an A-E firm. Contract award for these projects will be contingent upon project approvals. The A-E firm will: 1. Perform field investigations including project criteria studies; 2. Prepare construction bid packages consisting of calculations, design drawings and specifications; 3. Develop construction cost estimates to be used as the Government estimates for construction; 4. Provide shop drawing review services necessary to accomplish the project designs and construction, and ; 5. Provide designs on an Intergraph or compatible CAD system. The following criteria will be used in the preliminary screening of the A-E firms responding to this announcement for the subject projects. In order for the responding A-E firms to beconsidered, they must: 1. Respond to this announcement for this solicitation; 2. Provide the latest versions of Standard Form 254 and Standard Form 255; 3. Have in-house expertise in the disciplines of architectural, civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, specifying, and estimating; 4. Have registered professionals in the disciplines of architectural, civil, structural, mechanical and electrical engineering, and instrumentation and controls; 5. Have at least 10 years specialized experience and demonstrated capability in projects of this magnitude; 6. Have CAD capability completely compatible with NASA Intergraph system; 7. Have the following number of architects and engineers (all disciplines to be in-house): Architects -- 2 or more; Electrical Engineers -- 5 or more; Mechanical Engineers -- 10 or more; Structural Engineers -- 2 or more; Civil Engineers -- 2 or more; CAD operators -- 5 or more; 8. Be located 300 miles or less from Huntsville, Alabama. The services required are primarilyengineering and this procurement is not set-aside for Small Businesses. A-E firms that meet rquirements described in this announcement are invited to submit a completed Standard Form Form 255, Architect Engineer and Related Services Questionairre for Specific Project, and appropriate data as described in Numbered Note 24 to the attention of GP31-M/Lynn Southgate at the address shown above, no later than 30 days from the date of this publication. Evaluation criteria and all other provisions of Numbered Note 24 shall apply to this notice except that (a) in the sentence beginning "Selection of firms for negotiations," the fourth additional consideration is changed to read "(4) past experience, if any, of the firm with respect to performance with NASA, other Government Agencies, and private industry;" and (b) in the last sentence, "National Aeronautics ansd Space Administration" is substituted for "Department of Defense." This notice is intended to provide sufficient information for the preparation of a StandardForm 255. All firms that respond must submit their Standard 255 based on information contained in this notice and should not contact MSFC officials by letter or telephone to request additional information. Additional information will not be furnished at this time. Firms responding to this this synopsis should include the Identification Number A-E-3(99) in their submitted Standard Form 255 and accompanying letter of transmittal. The address for all overnight packages is: NASA, Marshall Space Flight Center, Attn: GP31-M/Lynn P. Southgate, Morris Road, Building 4250, Room 36, Marshall Space Flight Center, AL 35812 (located near Huntsville, AL). THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. SEE Note 24. Posted 02/17/99 (D-SN299024).
