The Federal Bureau of Prisons (FBOP), South-Central Regional Office (SCRO) anticipates the need for a multiple award, indefinite delivery indefinite quantity (IDIQ), firm-fixed price contract for supplemental architect-engineer (A/E) services with one-year base requirement and up to four option years. While the Government anticipates multiple awards, no more than three awards are expected. The services will be for various FBOP facilities in the South-Central Region to include Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana. The Contractor shall provide A/E services that fully cover all disciplines required for a complete job. Services shall include but not be limited to: architecture, electrical, mechanical, structural, civil and geotechnical engineering, elevator, life safety, fire safety, code-compliance, LEED certification, Section 106, hazardous material consultant services, life safety inspections, investigations, land surveys, materials testing services, comprehensive subsurface investigations, preparation of construction documents, estimates, bidding services, construction administration and/or assistance to FBOP staff in the preparation of in-house designs or related work. Services may also include special studies, reports, programming, site evaluations, environmental assessment for remediation, and other associated work. Most projects will take place in a fully occupied, fully operational, secure correctional environment. Most projects require complex design effort and detail along with extensive coordination between design disciplines, the institution, and the SCRO during design and construction. Institutions, located at a total of sixteen (16) different site locations in the FBOP South-Central Region, are comprised of four (4) prison complexes, several institutions and satellite camps. Projects at select institutions may involve issues of national security. Given the close coordination needed between the successful firms and the SCRO, selections of firms will be limited geographically to those located within the four states the FBOP South-Central Region institutions and SCRO are located in (Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana). Firms are to perform services as required by the issuance of individual task orders. The guaranteed annual minimum amount of each contract is $10,000 and the estimated annual maximum is $1,500,000. The maximum amount of any individual task order is $1,500,000. Services will be required for a one-year base period with four one-year option periods (if exercised) for a total of up to 60 months from the date of award. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code applicable to this requirement is 541310 with a corresponding small business size standard of $12.5 million average annual receipts for the firms preceding three fiscal years. Firms larger than this average will be considered large businesses and will be required to submit a small business subcontracting plan if selected to submit a proposal unless the services will be completed fully in-house by the firm for the entire contract duration. Interested bidders must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) at https://sam.gov. NAICS code 541310 is requested to be included where applicable in registrations. This requirement will be fulfilled pursuant to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 36.6 and the Brooks Act. Pursuant to FAR 36.209 and 36.606(c), for any firm(s) receiving award under this requirement, no construction contract may be awarded to the firm (including any of its subsidiaries or affiliates) that designs the corresponding project.
