The work requires Architectural and Engineering Services necessary for the preparation of programming, studies and plans, specifications,and construction cost estimates ready for bidding for the Bachelor Enlisted Complex. This complex will provide housing for 800 persons and a dining facility for 200-300 persons. Site constraints dictate structured parking. Personnel support facilities include racquetball and basketball courts, gymnasium with weight room, Chaplain's office, uniform shop, credit union and snack bar. Existing buildings will be renovated to house the personnel support functions. The site is low, flat and has poor underlying soil conditions requiring extensive stormwater management and deep foundations. The National Capitol Planning Commission and the Commission of Fine Arts requirements dictate constraints on the facility design. Although none is known, the possibility of hazardous materials may exist at the project site. If hazardous materials are encountered, the A-E Contractor will be required to conduct hazardous material removal surveys, including testing and sampling, provide design removal procedures and prepare construction contract documents in accordance with applicable rules and regulations pertaining to such hazardous materials. All hazardous materials licenses and/or accreditation necessary for the locality of the project site are required by the A-E firm or their subcontractor. A comprehensive stormwater management plan must be prepared in accordance with requirements of the District of Columbia. The general intention is to provide for such design and engineering services as necessary to support the procurement of this project. Services, such as technical reports and studies, site investigations, programming, contract documents (drawings, specifications and construction cost estimates), surveys, shop drawings reviews, construction consultation and inspection, and preparation of construction record drawings, and O&M manuals may be required at any time up to the final acceptance of all work. The selected firm will be required to participate in an orientation and site visit meeting within seven days of notification and provide a fee proposal within 20 days after that meeting. This will be a firm fixed price A-E contract. The estimated design start date is 05 July 1995. The final plans and specifications are required 45 weeks after award of this contract. The estimated cost of construction is $55-65 million. Selection evaluation criteria, in relative order of importance are included below. 1. Specialized experience and professional qualifications of the architectural/engineering firm (with its subcontractors), and the proposed project team in providing complete design and engineering services for the project requirements as described herein; 2. Demonstrate capabilities in sustained accomplishment of work within established time limits; 3. Past performance and process of the prime A-E firm (and subcontractors) in the firm's quality control/quality assurance program to assure coordinated technically accurate studies, plans, specifications, and construction cost estimates; 4. The firm's and project team's present workload; 5. Preference will be given to firms with the capability of using CAD, SPECSINTACT, and Cost Engineering Systems (CES). Each firm's past performance and performance ratings will be reviewed during the evaluation process and can affect the selection outcome. Firms which meet the requirements listed in this announcement are invited to submit one copy each of the completed Standard Forms (SF) 254 and 255, U.S. Government Architect-Engineer Qualifications, to the office indicated below. Site visits will not be arranged during the advertisement period. This proposed contract is being solicited on an unrestricted basis. Small business size standard SIC Code is ``8712,'' $2.5 million annual average over a three year period. Interested firms are requested to include telefax numbers, the Contractor Establishment Code (CEC), and Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) on the SF 255 and SF 254 in Blocks 3a and 1, respectively.

This is not a request for proposal. The selected firm may be subject to an advisory audit performed by the Defense Contract Audit Agency. Because this contract acquisition could result in an award over $500,000.00 a subcontracting plan will be required by the selected firm if the firm is a large business concern. The small disadvantaged business set-aside goals in that subcontracting plan shall not be less than 5 percent of the subcontracted work. This does not apply if the prime firm is a small business concern.
