This is a solicitation notice for acquisition is to acquire a Construction-Manager as Constructor (CMc) for the Houlton Land Port of Entry (LPOE), Interstate 95 & US/Canada Border, Houlton, Maine, ME0... This is a solicitation notice for acquisition is to acquire a Construction-Manager as Constructor (CMc) for the Houlton Land Port of Entry (LPOE), Interstate 95 & US/Canada Border, Houlton, Maine, ME0661BH. The requirements for this project will comply with the GSA, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) guidelines. This is a major renovation and alternation project that follow the GSA Design Excellence Guidelines, the GSA Facilities Standards for the Public Buildings Service (P-100) 2022, and the 2023 LPOE Design Guide for U.S. Customs & Border Protection (CBP). This project is categorized as a "Repair & Alterations" for application of the GSA P-100. The CMc shall be a member of the project development team during the design and construction phases. This project is part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) program, during the design and construction phases. The CMc selected for this project shall work with the GSA and GSA’s selected Architect and Engineer (A/E) firm, Commissioning Agent (CxA), and Construction Manager as Agent (CMa). The services requested of the CMc shall cover a wide range of design and construction activities, such as: constructability reviews, cost estimating, work phasing reviews, scheduling and general construction services. During the design development (DD) and construction document (CD) phases, the A/E and the CMc will collaborate on the design, constructability issues, schedule, cost, through a process that is similar to value management. The goal of this collaboration is to establish a final Estimated Cost of Work that does not exceed the original target ECW (as set forth in the A/E Contractor’s proposal). The CMc's involvement during the project design stage offers the government the ability to identify current market conditions concerning labor and material availability, constructability issues, and any phasing and sequencing impacts. The CMc is at risk and is responsible for involvement in the project development and administration of the construction. The CMc contractor will be responsible for construction of the port should the construction option under the contract be exercised. The Magnitude of Construction is estimated within the range of $22,000,000.00 and $32,000,000.00. Offerors are cautioned that price proposals exceeding this range may be determined ineligible for award based on budgetary limitations. This range does include potential Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) funding. Due to the project magnitude, employing a CMc will reduce many of the potential project risks insofar as one central party will be responsible for managing the coordination of all contracting entities (i.e. subcontractors) necessary to complete the project within budget, on time, and most efficiently. Moreover, one responsible party will possess a better understanding of the project’s challenges and will consequently have more thorough knowledge of how to best complete the project. Finally, the CMc will be able to identify current market conditions concerning labor and material availability and the impact that has to the overall project. The Houlton Land Point of Entry (LPOE) is located at 27 Customs Loop, Houlton, ME. It is a large-scale New England crossing of about 37,561 GSF and operates 24/7 at the terminus of Interstate 95 (I-95) and occupies 7.8 acres. The corresponding Canadian border station is Woodstock Station, New Brunswick, CA. The LPOE facility consists of a group of four (4) buildings, constructed in 1985. The Main Port Building, CBP Commercial Inspection Building and FDA/GSA/APHIS Building are owned and maintained by the GSA. The NII Building is maintained by CBP, but GSA has ultimate custody and control of that structure. The buildings are not eligible to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The facility was constructed in 1985 and is 39 years old. In 2015, an Extra Field Investigation (EFI) study determined that there are substantial repairs needed to the entire exterior envelope. In the years since the completion of the study, the exterior walls and window systems have further deteriorated. The 2015 study only provided the assessment of envelope-related systems. In 2018, a Facility Assessment Report (FAR) was conducted providing a more thorough study of all building, systems, land and structures identified in the scope. Subsequently, the GSA Region 1 strongly emphasized that all building systems at this facility require replacement or significant reinvestment and undertook a formal Program Development Study (PDS) in 2021 to develop a project directives, budget and implementation plan to correct deficiencies that had been identified. The project will be completed as expeditiously as possible to mitigate the disruptions to both the CBP mission and general public. Planned repairs and alterations include: New building envelope components (roofing, windows, exterior wall panels, storefront systems, exterior doors and frames, building sealants) for the Main Port Building. Upgrades to life safety & fire protection systems, plumbing systems, mechanical systems (geothermal), and electrical systems for the Main Port Building. Optional - limited site civil work for items in need of repair including water service lines and underground water storage for fire suppression sprinkler systems. Optional - new primary and secondary generators. Optional - new building envelope components (roofing, windows, exterior wall panels, storefront systems, exterior doors and frames, building sealants) for the CBP Commercial Inspection and FDA/GSA/APHIS Buildings. Optional – upgrades to life safety and fire protection system for the CBP and FDA/GSA/APHIS Buildings. Meeting all accessibility standards. Incorporating sustainability features and advancing community goals per the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (November 15, 2021). Use of low embodied carbon building materials and implementing sustainable technologies per the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. IRA funding for this project is dependent on the Contractor’s ability to procure and utilize IRA eligible materials and equipment. For Low Embodied Carbon (LEC) Materials and Emerging & Sustainable Technologies (E&ST), the contractor shall price alternates for traditional materials. Refer to GSA 012300 ALTERNATES for additional information. In accordance with the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 Requirements, this project is funded in part by Sections 60503 and 60504 of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA). Section 60503 Low Embodied Carbon (LEC) Materials provides funding for purchase of construction materials with substantially lower levels of embodied greenhouse gas emissions. Section 60504 Emerging Technologies provides funding for emerging and sustainable technology (E&ST) scope. The IRA requirements supersede LEC requirements referenced in GSA P-100 Facilities Standards. Regarding Low Embodied Carbon (LEC) Materials, this project requires the Contractor to acquire and install IRA-Eligible Materials that adhere to the global warming potential IRA Limits established in the Contract. IRA-Eligible Materials shall be purchased and properly installed per the Agreement, Scope of Work, Drawings and Specifications. Unless otherwise specified, all work requiring use of materials with a contractually established IRA Limit shall utilize materials compliant with those Limits. For each type of IRA-Eligible Material, the Contractor shall provide submittals of Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) and product information -- see Division One Specification, Submittal Procedures, 013300. IRA-Eligible Material scope item(s) shall be integrated into the project’s phasing, scheduling, reporting, and scope, to support overall project goals. Limit area of disturbance or work area for IRA-Eligible Material scope item(s) to the minimum practical area. Work area or area of disturbance shall be restored to pre-project or new condition. Regarding Emerging and Sustainable Technologies (E&ST), the work includes installation and construction of IRA-funded emerging and sustainable technology (E&ST) scope items including Photovoltaics, Heat Pumps, Networked LED Fixtures and Controls, and Advanced Insulations. IRA-funded E&ST scope items shall be constructed, installed, and certified as complete and operable. IRA-funded E&ST scope items shall be integrated into the project and conform with the overall project schedule. Limit area of disturbance or work area for E&ST scope items to the minimum practical area. Under the Cost Accounting and CLIN Structure, the Inflation Reduction Act has strict accounting and contract line-item formatting requirements. The CMc contractor must segregate and track costs applicable to the Inflation Reduction Act and work with the GSA PM and Contracting Officer to ensure compliance with the accounting requirements. Refer to Supplemental Pricing and Invoicing Instructions For Projects Funded By The Inflation Reduction Act Of 2022. As noted in the Agreement (released at time of Solicitation is issued), the CMc’s tasks are primarily separated into two distinct phases: (1) Pre-Construction Phase Services, which is a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Contract; and (2) Construction Phase Work which is a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) Fixed Price Incentive (FPI) Contract which is awarded as the construction option. A fixed-price incentive contract is a fixed-price contract that provides for adjusting profit and establishing the final contract price by application of a formula based on the relationship of total final negotiated cost to total target cost. The final price is subject to a price ceiling, negotiated at the outset. GSA intends to award the CMc contract pursuant to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 15.101, Best Value Continuum. The scope of CMc services under this proposed contract includes Design Phase Services and Construction Phase Services. The CMc will be competitively chosen using the Source Selection (FAR Part 15) procedures. The objective of the Source Selection Process is to select a proposal the represents the best value to the Government. CMc is a Design-Assist project delivery method that allows an Owner to engage the Constructor early in the project to assist in defining the construction requirement as well as preparing construction cost estimates, schedule estimates, and constructability reviews. Both technical proposals and price proposals need to be clearly labelled so that the technical proposals can be evaluated separately by the Source Selection Evaluation Board in accordance with FAR Part 15.101. One contractor will be awarded using competitive negotiation. This procurement will be open to both large and small business firms. The firm (if not a small business) shall be required to present an acceptable small business subcontracting plan in accordance with FAR 19.7, as part of its proposal. The Government reserves the right to make award on initial offers, but discussions may be held if appropriate. The Design Phase Services are anticipated to commence upon award of the contract. The solicitation (RFP) will be issued electronically via SAM at http://www.sam.gov/.
