Description
THIS IS A PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE. The Federal Bureau of Prisons (FBOP) anticipates award of a Firm-Fixed Price Design-Build contract for the design and construction of a United States Penitentiary (USP) to be located in Coleman, Florida. The scope of work includes all architectural, engineering, construction, and other related services necessary to provide the new federal correctional facility. The proposed high security USP is currently planned to consist of a group of buildings in a "campus plan" arrangement with related site development and site utilities. The high security facility will have a gross building area of approximately 45,000 square meters, and be designed to house approximately 960 inmates. The Design-Build contract for the USP will provide for issuance of Task Orders for performance which are subject to funding availability, or award of a base contract for design and early sitework with a construction option which is also subject to funding availability. The estimated magnitude of this project is expected to exceed $75,000,000. The estimated performance period is 920 calendar days after the Notice to Proceed is issued. For consideration of this project, the offeror at a minimum must be a firm or joint venture with experience, individually or as a member of a team, in successfully and satisfactorily completing a project of similar size and scope. All responsible sources may submit a proposal which will be considered. For the design member of the Design-Build Team, the Architect/Engineer (A/E) firm or the principle or lead A/E firm of a joint venture, must have an existing active office, which will have responsibility for the plans and specifications, located within the State of Florida. The design of the architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, civil, or other engineering features of the project shall be accomplished or reviewed and approved by architects and engineers registered in the State of Florida to practice in the particular professional field involved. Participation by architects, engineers, consultants, and subcontractors located within the State of Florida is encouraged. Participation by small, small-disadvantaged, HUBZone small businesses and small women-owned businesses is encouraged. The successful offeror will be required to submit a subcontracting plan for this procurement regarding the utilization of small, small-disadvantaged, and small women-owned businesses. The FBOP will be utilizing Two-Phase Design-Build selection procedures. This is not a request for proposals. Interested offerors may request and obtain a Phase One Solicitation of the Two-Phase process. Phase One Solicitations will be issued on or about September 29, 2000, with a tentative closing date of October 29, 2000. The Phase One proposal due date will be identified in the Phase One Solicitation. The Phase One Solicitation will provide the scope of work, evaluation factors, and submission information for interested Design-Build firms to prepare their Phase One qualification proposals. Phase One qualification proposals will be evaluated to determine which firms will be selected as offerors for Phase Two. Phase Two participants will submit competitive technical, price, past performance, and small business proposals as defined in the Phase Two Solicitation.
