RFIs received as of 7/1/2025:
Q: A project that meets all of the stated criteria, i.e. is design-build, has been completed within the past 15 years, greater than $15M, and includes historic components in a central business district are very rare. Will the GSA consider projects that meet some but not all of these criteria, and that have been delivered via traditional design-bid-build?
A: Projects that meet all or most of the criteria listed under similar will receive higher technical scores than those that do not. However, it is permissible to submit project examples which demonstrate parts of the criteria but not all, as previously stated, those project examples will score lower technical scores.
Q: Will GSA consider expanding the Similar Project definition for Subfactor 1.A to include projects that utilized an alternative delivery method such as CMC, CMA, CMaR/GCCM in addition to design-build or IPD?
A: Yes, GSA will consider other delivery methods including Construction Manager as
Constructor/Construction Manager at Risk and will consider those as more similar for the purpose of this factor. As stated above, project examples which demonstrate more similarity to the proposed project/criteria, the higher technical score they will be eligible for.
Q: Would GSA consider moving the IPD requirement in Subfactor 1.A to the “more similar” category versus a prerequisite for ALL projects?
A: Under 1.A, IDP is not a requirement, it notes past experience with Design-Build OR IDP.
Q: Can you share a timeline for the CM award?
A: The CM award is anticipated in early August.They will at least be on board prior to issuing the
Phase II solicitation.
Q: Can you clarify the extent of systems, lighting, fire & life safety and security scope that will be included in the project? The Statement of Work, section 1.A Project description seems to list more than was discussed on site.
A: Due to the relationship between the existing plaza and building systems, some systems may require repair and/or replacement in order to perform plaza work. Section 1.A is in reference to this ancillary work.
Q: Since a CM has not been selected yet, offers do not need to submit a proprietary information agreement for Phase 1
A: No, offerors do not need to submit a proprietary information agreement at this time.
