This will allow relocation of Technical Services Division Inventory Management Office (IMO) warehouse facilities to Building 8 and Engineering Fabrication and Design Shops (EFDS) to Building 4. This is a turnkey project (design and construction) with the complete design package and renovation of Building 8 as the proposed base contract and the renovation of Building 4 as a contract option. The magnitude of construction inclusive of option is between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. All work under this project including as-built drawings, shall be produced using the metric system of units (SI), not Imperial units; and Autocad Release 12. The design shall include architectural, structural, civil, mechanical, and electrical necessary to provide complete analysis of existing conditions and design of renovations. Construction will be required to be phased to renovate Building 8 (approximately 211 net square meters) which will allow IMO to relocate to Building 8 from Building 4, then for Building 4 (approximately 810 net square meters) to be renovated for EFDS to relocate to Building 4. Building 8 is a pre-engineered metal building on reinforced concrete continuous footing with slab on grade floor. It is heated by unit heaters fired by natural gas. Interior finishes are minimal. Building 4 is a heavy timber framed building with metal roof and exterior siding. Interior finishes in the space to be renovated are minimal, with limited area of painted drywall partition, hung acoustical ceiling, and vinyl composition tile floor covering. All asbestos-containing material will be removed by the Government prior to commencement of any construction in this project. Other work will be completed by the Government, including the moving of Government-owned equipment and furnishing.
