- Description
- This announcement is not a Request for Proposal (RFP) and does not commit the Government to award any contracts now or in the future. No Solicitation is available at this time. The purpose of this Pre-Solicitation notice is to advertise that the U.S. Department of Commerce, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), is contracting for the Renovation of Building 1, Phase II, Wing 3 Interiors Project (B1R Phase II). Statement of Need: NIST requires the construction of the B1R Phase II in order to renovate Building 1, Wing 3 to reinstate it as a state-of-the-art research facility for the performance of highly sophisticated research. The proposed B1R Phase II is a necessity for NIST's continued long-term support of United States (US) industrial competitiveness in the world market. The B1R Phase II consists of an interior upgrade and an expansion of wing 3. The primary objective is constructing Level 3 (L3) capable lab space that will be flexible enough to serve as a swing space throughout the next phases of construction throughout Building 1. Included in the scope of work are enclosed offices, open offices, interaction spaces and service galleys. The B1R Phase II will allow the laboratory to combine the features of close temperature control, vibration isolation, air cleanliness and demanding power quality into a facility of crucial national importance. The B1R Phase II will consist of general purpose instrument laboratories. Temperature control will be achieved down to +/- 0.5 degree C in some areas, humidity control to +/- 5% and air filtration to class 10,000. The B1R Phase II area is approximately 130,000 square feet. Environmental and space requirements for the building are based on extensive programmatic studies of NIST's most technically demanding scientific programs, many of which directly or indirectly support US competitiveness. The building environmental requirements for programs slated for the B1R Phase II can be economically met with renovated laboratory space; therefore, the B1R Phase II is a necessity for NIST's continued long-term support of US industrial competitiveness in the world market. The Solicitation will be released on or about 20 June 2012, with an award anticipated in September 2012. Per FAR 36.204 - DISCLOSURE OF THE MAGNITUDE OF CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS, the magnitude estimated price range of this project is $5,000,000 to $10,000,000. A pre-proposal conference has been scheduled for Wednesday, 27 June 2012 from 9:30 am - noon in Building 1, Room 1108 (Auditorium) National Institute of Standards and Technology located at 325 Broadway, Boulder, Colorado 80305. Information regarding the conference will be contained in the Solicitation posting. Completion time for this project is estimated at four hundred and fifty (450) calendar days after the written Notice to Proceed.
