No proposals are being requested or will be accepted in response to this posting. If you are interested in proposing on the general scope of work stated below for a Design-Build Project, please respond by email only to krista.miller@gsa.gov. Please provide your bonding capacity, a capability statement, and your small business and small business socioeconomic status, if any. Please include in your capability statement projects which your firm has completed that are particularly relevant to this scope of work, especially involving exterior structural and glazing improvements, and/or performed in Hawaii. General Statement of Work Summary: The Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalaniana’ole (PJKK) Federal Building and Courthouse is located at 300 Ala Moana Blvd., Honolulu, within the Hawaii Capital district and on the outskirts of the downtown central business district. This reinforced, cast in place concrete with concrete masonry and glass curtain walls is a two-building mid-century modern complex originally constructed in 1977. The illuminated entry pavilion was originally designed by Gensler SF and constructed by Swinerton Construction in January 2015. The illuminated entry pavilion design was an elegant, iconic AIA award winning design that unified two separate entries into a single, sky lighted and transparent entrance for the PJKK Complex. The single portal/pavilion simplified the circulation for the public and created a strong sense of entry for PJKK. On April 6, 2021 a fire occurred at the entry pavilion that created significant damage. On January 24, 2022, Clifford Planning Architecture completed a Fire Investigation Report that stated “it is probable the entry pavilion fire initiated was a result of an electrical fault within the LED light panel installed adjacent to the bottom panel of the south wall of the entry pavilion. Low level arcing over a period of time was the likely source of heat for ignition of the acrylic panel material” (See Volume 4 – Fire Investigation). As further defined in the Fire Investigation Report, there was fire damage to architectural finishes and structural members. The scope of work for the entry pavilion includes, but is not limited to, installing (2) temporary covered entry tunnels to the existing United States Marshal Service (USMS) and Federal Protection Services (FPS) security check-point locations, providing code compliant construction documents and full design services that adhere to the original Gensler design and architectural appearance of the original entry pavilion, while also making the necessary design changes to address the issues that contributed to the fire and smoke damage as further defined in Volume 4 - Fire Investigation. The design should also include solutions for the following known building maintenance issues: 1. The original design LED panels were located behind heavy glass panels that created issues for regular maintenance and care. 2. The original designed entry door operated on a small pin that would fail and was difficult to replace. In addition to the scope above, the design and construction of the courthouse hardening upgrades to the entry pavilion and ground level windows and doors facing Halekauwila Street and Ala Moana Boulevard are a requirement for this project. The judiciary had previously sought from Congress supplemental appropriations to fund enhanced security measures to protect judges and the judicial process in response to the civil unrest following the murder of George Floyd and the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol. The Judicial Conference approved funding to begin enhanced security measure projects to harden courthouses. Initial stakeholders from the General Services Administration (GSA), the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts (AO), U.S Marshals Service (USMS), and the Federal Protective Service (FPS) worked together to analyze potential security measures to be used in this program. This scope of work covers the countermeasures for the PJKK Courthouse in Honolulu, HI: 1. Windows: Impact resistant window glazing system at the Entry Pavilion and ground level Courthouse windows and doors facing Halekauwila Street and Ala Moana Boulevard, excluding ground level windows along the United States Marshal Service offices and within the confines of the exterior secured courtyard: ? Windows / Doors / Frames – Shall meet a minimum 15-minute forced entry resistance per ASTM F3038 OR Dept of State (DoS) SD-STD.01.01 Rev G (Amended) – forced entry resistance is the standard that shall apply. ? The contractor shall install a new shatter break resistance riot glazing system ? Contractor is responsible to field verify and measure each opening. 2. Exterior Doors and Hardware (See Volume 2B_Existing Pavilion Design Drawings for specific locations): ? All exterior pavilion entry doors and interior courthouse pavilion vestibule doors shall be equipped with hardware and controls to engage electro-magnetic and/or electro-mechanical remote locks. ? Remote locks shall give the ability for the Court Security Officers and the USMS to lock all doors immediately in case of an emergency. ? Remote lock override control shall run to the main USMS / CSO Control Room The courthouse hardening upgrades will upgrade the ground level Courthouse windows and doors and replace all window, exterior doors, and hardware included in the original Gensler designed PJKK entry pavilion. The forced entry resistance doors and windows shall meet a minimum 15 minute forced entry resistance in accordance with ASTM Standard F3038-21, with the following exception. ASTM Standard F3038-21 requires a full scale test for each unique system size and configuration, however, if the actual overall system dimensions are within 6” (both height and width dimension) of another successfully tested system meeting the requirements of ASTM Standard 3038-21, and the system components are of similar size and makeup, the proposed system shall be considered acceptable. Support documentation shall be provided prior to installation. The construction services scope of work includes demolition of the remaining pavilion structure, build-out of (2) temporary tunnels to access the existing USMS and FPS security check-points, the build-out of the new entry pavilion, installation of the courthouse hardening window and door upgrades, including but not limited to structural, architectural finishes, lighting, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire and life safety, and data/cabling infrastructure. The Federal Building and Courthouse must remain fully operational throughout design and construction. All construction work related to this project shall be scheduled from 5:00 pm to 7:00 am, after normal building operation hours to minimize disruptions to building occupants and to maintain public safety. Normal building operation hours are from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. weekdays. The project delivery method is Design-Build (DB). The DB Contractor shall provide all supervision, labor, materials, equipment, and testing required to accomplish the design and construction for the PJKK Entry Pavilion and Courthouse Hardening Project. Design services shall include, but are not limited to, design and certification by a State of Hawaii licensed Architect-Engineer (A/E), design reviews, weekly progress meetings, design development, construction documents, basis of design documents, site investigation, site measurements and verification, code compliance, reproduction services, consultant coordination, contract administration, contract close-out, record drawings and as-builts. Construction services shall include, but are not limited to, complete and timely submission of security clearance applications for workers (HSPD-12 and tenant agency review), project schedule, cost estimating, 3-week look ahead schedules, demolition, site supervision, drywall, mechanical, electrical, automatic sprinkler system, architectural finishes, submittal samples, submittal schedule, HVAC, system balancing, structural, fire and life safety, security infrastructure, protocols for utility outages, separation of utilities to avoid impacts to occupied areas, temporary barricade plan, noise mitigation, clean up after work, lead weekly meetings and provide minutes, file and record management, and all other work to meet the contract requirements.
