- FOR A COMPLETE COPY OF THE ANNOUNCEMENT IN PDF OR WORD FORMAT, PLEASE SEND AN E-MAIL TO: STEVEN.COX@GSA.GOV PROJECT DESCRIPTION Project Name: Richard Bolling Federal Office Building Building Type: Federal Building Location: Kansas City, MO Project Phase: The modernization project to be completed under the project Prospectus developed for the federal building consists of a four phase project. Phase I and Phase II of this modernization have been completed. Phase III has completed design and has an approximate construction notice to proceed in June of 2007. Phase IV is the future completion of the renovation project with design starting in 2008. Approximate Area: 1.2 million gross square feet Project Summary: Encompassing two full city blocks in the Municipal, State and Federal government district of Kansas City, Missouri?s downtown urban core, the massive Richard Bolling Federal Building is a landmark on the city skyline and a flagship complex for GSA in the community and the region. Built during the Great Society period in the early 1960?s, the nineteen story office tower stretches east and west across the site blocking Cherry Street in the downtown street grid. The individual 50,000 square foot tower floor plans make it the largest high rise office building in the Kansas City metropolitan area at over 1.2 million gross square feet. An ongoing modernization project involves complete demolition of all building core elements to include complete asbestos abatement of the buildings steel framed structure. Improvements involve all new core construction, mechanical systems, state of the art lighting and energy management systems, tenant improvements, roof replacement, repair of air/water infiltration problems with the exterior curtain wall glazing system as well as security improvements of the building skin. The current GSA Computer Maintenance and Management System (CMMS) does not adequately capture the required equipment information necessary for the effective management and operation of its facilities. GSA has a desire to enhance its building information database with this information to create a more robust and effective building management environment, enabling coordinated commissioning activities and facility management (e.g., maintenance schedules, maintenance coordination, mechanical operation, etc.) across building life-cycle phases. OBJECTIVES ? To create a BIM(s) that contains a selected population of critical architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and civil objects for building services. The model(s) will support services such as spatial validation, clash detection, and building operations and maintenance activities. ? To visualize, communicate, and validate the tenant phasing schedule using 4D modeling ? To evaluate the energy performance of proposed design options using BIM-based energy analysis. ? To populate the critical mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and civil objects with the appropriate performance requirements and as-built information. The object attribute information that is captured will be used throughout the building lifecycle and integrated into the GSA CMMS. ? To assist the GSA in developing Best Practices for the services/applications listed in sections 1.0-7.0 that will be incorporated into GSA?s BIM Guide Series. It is the intention of the government to develop the Best Practices in a collaborative way so that future use of BIM for similar applications yields high quality deliverables in the most efficient manner. Scope of Services 1.0 BASE SERVICES The contractor shall provide an architectural and a structural BIM for both Phase III and Phase IV proposed design and assist GSA and its stakeholders in the visualization, communication, and simulation of the building. Architectural BIM The contractor shall provide an architectural BIM that contains all significant architectural elements. Building elements to be modeled include all exterior and interior walls, roofs, ceilings, doors, windows, and stairs. Structural BIM The contractor shall provide a structural BIM that contains all major structural elements, including slabs, columns, and beams. Site 3D Model/BIM The contractor shall provide a 3D model and/or BIM of the surrounding landscape, buildings, and streetscape. 2.0 OPTION A 4D Model for Tenant Phasing of Phase III and Phase IV The contractor shall provide a series of 3D-based diagrams, model snapshots, and 4D models to support the communication of the proposed tenant relocation including, but not limited to, pre- and post-locations of tenants affected, location of construction work and staging areas. 3.0 OPTION B Space Object Modeling The model shall build upon the architectural BIM with the following spatial attributes: Space Number (ID), Space Name, GSA BIM Area, GSA Design Gross Area, Occupant Organization Name, and GSA STAR Space Type. Zone Object Modeling The contractor shall associate space objects in the BIM model with zonal information to assist GSA in visualization and analyses of spatial information. 4.0 OPTION C Energy Modeling The contractor shall perform and coordinate energy modeling services, and manage any efficiencies of data transfer afforded by ?object information? included in the BIM. The Contractor shall be familiar with and capable of conducting BIM-based energy simulation using an interoperable software application. 5.0 OPTION D GSA shall provide the contractor with the most recent set of 2D drawings (MEP and Civil) after GSA issues the Notice to Proceed, which will be Conceptual Design Phase drawings submitted by the A/E. Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, and Civil BIM The contractor shall provide mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and civil BIMs that model the major object types for these disciplines. Approximately 20 different object types will be modeled for the proposed design. BIM Coordination Services The contractor shall integrate and provide 3D geometry such that the model is compatible with clash detection software to enable design and construction coordination across architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and/or civil disciplines, as project needs require. The contractor will inform GSA COTR of any conflicts after modeling the set of drawings issued by GSA COTR during the Design Development Phase. 6.0 OPTION E Modeling of Required Building Equipment Attributes (Performance Requirements) The contractor shall populate the building elements modeled in Option C with more extensive equipment information that captures the performance requirements specified by the design team. National CAD Standard The contractor shall coordinate with the GSA COTR to obtain the appropriate acronyms for the building equipment modeled in Option C. This information will be included in the list of attributes that is assigned to the required building elements. OmniClass The OmniClass Construction Classification System (known as OmniClass or OCCS) is a new classification system for the construction industry developed by the Construction Specification Institute (CSI). The contractor shall include the appropriate OmniClass classification in the list of attributes that is assigned to the required building elements. 7.0 OPTION F Modeling of Required Building Equipment Attributes (As-Builts) The contractor shall extend Option D activities to maintain the BIM with reliable and systematic updates for the required equipment attributes throughout the Construction Phase with the as-built equipment properties installed by the contractor. Performance Requirement/As-Built Evaluation The contractor shall produce periodic reports evaluating the as-builts? success in meeting GSA performance requirements for those elements. Construction Operations Building Information Exchange (COBIE) The Construction Operations Building Information Exchange (COBIE) is a buildingSMART initiative of the National Institute of Building Science?s (NIBS) Facility Maintenance and Operations Committee, the Facility Information Council, the International Alliance for Interoperability, and the National Building Information Model Standard. It is a federal government sponsored effort to support the development of BIM via information exchange between the construction and operations phases. The contractor shall coordinate the appropriate equipment information from the BIM with the COBIE system. Site Visit The government will coordinate one site visit prior to the actual on-site scanning. The site visit schedule will be promulgated at a later time. Pre-Bid Conference The CO, GSA COTR, and regional teams will hold a pre-bid teleconference on 8/23/07 at 1pm EST. Contractors bidding on any portion of this solicitation will have the opportunity to gain clarifications on that day by calling the conference number: 888-790-6578 and using the passcode: BIM NOTE: THIS NOTICE MAY HAVE POSTED ON FEDBIZOPPS ON THE DATE INDICATED IN THE NOTICE ITSELF (08-AUG-2007).
