- Description
- Licensing Matrix This advertisement is for ARCHITECT & ENGINEERING SERVICES for two types of projects using USPS Building Design Standards, (1) New Construction, and (2) Repair and Alteration (R&A) projects. A firm must be willing to perform services required under both types of projects. The work includes site adaptation of USPS CADD-based standard plans for new facilities and expansions (very limited number of these occurring nationwide), design services for Repair and Alteration projects, preparation of contract documents, contract administration, commissioning support, and inspection services. The contract will cover postal facilities in Tennessee and will allow the resulting contracts to be used throughout Tennessee as well as any state bordering Tennessee. The successful firms' compliance with licensure requirements in neighboring states will be checked prior to receiving any work in those states. The contract period for this contract will be for a 2-year base period and up to Two (2) - 2-year renewal periods as agreed to by both parties. The total contract period, including renewal periods, may not exceed a total of six years. The total contract amount over the six-year period cannot exceed $9,500,000. Individual work orders will be negotiated for each project. Work orders for any one project cannot exceed $500,000. Typical work orders range from $2,500 to $50,000. Firms that have the qualifications to perform the services described are invited to submit two hard copies of completed SF-330, Architect-Engineer Qualifications. SF-330 can be found at www.gsa.gov under the Forms Library. Firms must also submit two electronic copies (CD) of the SF-330 and answers to questions. Firms must also submit a statement that addresses the following questions: (1) How long has the technical team been working together? Provide areas of expertise for each team member, and provide details on how the technical team will be structured and managed. Note: The technical team is defined as all architects, engineers, project managers, and construction administrators that will be directly assigned to support this contract. (2) What experience does the team have in Repair and Alteration projects? Provide information on specific projects. (3) What experience does the team have in historical preservation projects? Provide information on specific projects. (4) What experience does the team have in responding to emergencies (i.e. flooding, fire, storm damage, accidents resulting in structural damage, etc.). Provide information on specific projects. (5) Provide typical office information on work hours, days of operation, emergency contact information, and evidence of current errors and omissions insurance of $200,000 per claim. All firms must be licensed to perform Architect and Engineering services in Tennessee. Prime firms must have at least two (2) licensed Architects on staff, who maintain licenses for the state of Tennessee. The prime firm, in conjunction with any consultants, must have at least one (1) Electrical Engineer, one (1) Mechanical Engineer, one (1) Structural Engineer, and one (1) Civil Engineer licensed in Tennessee. Consultants do not have to reside in the state of Tennessee. Firms must fill out and return the attached "License Matrix". Prime firms must be located in Tennessee. The location requirement can be met in one of two ways: 1. The prime firm's sole office is in Tennessee, or 2. The prime firm has one or more branch offices in Tennessee that have been in operation for a minimum of one year and all the architectural design, coordination, and management of the projects will be performed in those offices. There is no restriction on the geographical location of consultants. Prime firms that plan to use resources from more than one of their offices in Tennessee must indicate on their SF-330 the staffing compositions of each of those offices. Firms will be evaluated on the content of their SF-330 and the responses to the questions and items above. At the discretion of the Contracting Officer, contracts may be awarded to more than one A/E firm, and contracts may be used in neighboring states. The successful firms' compliance with licensure requirements in neighboring states will be checked prior to receiving any work in those states. Participation of minority-owned and woman-owned businesses in U.S. Postal Service architect-engineer selections is encouraged but is not an evaluation factor. It is prohibited to pay any fee, commission, percentage, or brokerage fee to any person or firm contingent upon or resulting from award of a contract for this project. Submissions will not be retained or returned. This is not a request for proposal. Submit the required documentation to: USPS Eastern Facilities Construction CMT Attn: Tennessee A/E Selection PO Box 27497 Greensboro, NC 27498-1103
