- Description
- The National Institutes of Health intends to award a sole source contract to Tishman Construction Corp. to provide Design and Construction Services for the National Heart Lung and Blood Renovation Project. This project will allow NHLBI to modernization spaces and equipment to facilitate ongoing and new research and treatment endeavors. Several spaces require reconfiguration to accommodate a change in staffing and support work. Tishman was issued a design-build contract to provide services for the defined construction, which is currently on-going. Tishman received the NTP on July 9, 2009 and is scheduled to complete the work on May 4, 2010. The project is under design at this time, but there have been some unforeseen or hidden conditions, which require additional work and perhaps time extension. During the construction, Tishman's contract expired, so no additional construction funds could be available without an extension to their contract. The contract vehicle is a Not to Exceed Price contract. The total contract award value including, the option year shall not exceed $136,000.00. NIH anticipates soliciting and negotiating with only one source under the statutory authority of 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1) to provide this service to meet mission critical requirements for the following reasons: · Change is required due to discovered hidden conditions, including drawing revisions. · Tishman is familiar with NIH issues pertaining to the field conditions and IC constraints and documentation developed to date. · Tishman has the design intent knowledge that was developed during the ongoing preparation of the construction documents and has spent hundreds of man hours getting familiar with the drawings, the building, and the client. To repeat this process with a new contractor would require an extensive effort that would be extremely disruptive to the IC, unnecessarily time consuming, and cost-prohibitive. · To compete for these construction services would require a significant amount of time that would delay the project and adversely impact the NHLBI mission. Scope of Required Construction Services: 1. Installation of Tele/Lan Closet · Provide design and construction services for the tele/lan closet according to CIT specifications · Provide dedicated HVAC system for new tele/lan closet. · Remove and relocate all existing MEP components in the space as needed to reconfigure the new closet for HVAC system including controls that tie into existing building controls, lighting, fire protection and alarm, security (card reader access). · Provide and install cable tray from the new closet location to NHLBI space. · Remove existing cubical and equipment currently in the tele/lan closet space and turn over to the Government. · Provide all labor, equipment and materials to remove floor and ceiling to accommodate the new layout of tele/lan closet. · Furnish new flooring, ceiling, interior partitions and finishes. 2. Provide added project management, site supervision, and additional cost for work to be accomplished outside of normal construction hours, to coordinate modifications to the work required by drawing modifications, and to address modifications required by the Fire Marshall and the Clinical Center. 3. Deliverable Schedule: If Tishman is permitted to do the work, there will be no down time in project progress for the modifications and added work.
