I. BACKGROUND

The General Services Administration (GSA) intends to design and construct a new U.S. courthouse in Greenville, MS. The project site is in the 200 block of Washington Avenue where the current Stein Mart Square Park is located. This project will be an anchor for revitalization and future development in the area. Its design will be compatible with the character of the historic district while reflecting the dignity, enterprise, vigor, and stability of the United States. The new building will be designed not to exceed 62,000 gross square feet (GSF); including 17 secure structured parking spaces. The courthouse will provide a total of two (2) courtrooms; one District and one Magistrate. Tenant agencies will be the United States Fifth Circuit District and Magistrate Courts, United States Marshals Service, United States Probation Office, and GSA’s Public Buildings Service with trial prep space provided for the Federal Public Defender and United States Attorney’s Office.

GSA has contracted with a separate Architect-Engineer (A/E) firm that is responsible for developing complete design and construction documents for the Project. In addition, GSA has contracted with a separate Construction Management as Advisor (CMa) firm with Commissioning Agent (CxA) services to provide support during the design, construction, and commissioning phases of the Project. GSA may issue additional separate contracts for: (1) an artist under the Art-in-Architecture program; and (2) other consultants as may be reasonably necessary to complete the Project.

II. PURPOSE

The CMc’s tasks are separated into two distinct phases: 1) Design Phase Services; and (2) Construction Phase Work. This Statement of Work (SOW) outlines additional services not otherwise provided for in the Contract Documents that the CMc shall perform.

As a general matter, the CMc shall review and become familiar with the scope of services under the A/E’s contract, especially the various standards, guidelines, policies, and documents that the A/E is required to follow in developing the design and construction documents. This review and familiarization is vitally important during the Design Phase Services because, as set forth in more detail below, the main tasks of the CMc during the Design Phase Services are to provide constructability and cost estimation reviews of the A/E’s design-related submissions. At its core, the CMc will help to ensure that the design and construction documents will enable the Government to exercise the Guaranteed Maximum Price Option at a price that is at or below the GMP.

III. SCOPE OF SERVICES

This Statement of Work is presented in terms of general and specific conditions. Any items not specifically stated but necessary to achieve the goals of the project and accepted as industry-standard professional services shall be provided by the CMc. Any exclusions or options must be clearly identified in the CMc’s proposal to ensure that all parties are in full agreement. The CMc is responsible for providing the management, quality control, technical, and administrative resources needed to perform its services in an expeditious and economical manner consistent with the best interests of the Government.

A. Design Stage Services

The A/E’s contract requires the A/E to follow the design process as set forth in the GSA Facilities Standards for the Public Buildings Service (P100, 2017 edition). The P100 describes two overarching design phases: (1) Design Development (DD); and (2) Construction Documents (CDs).

When the Stage II RFP is issued to the short-listed CMc firms, the Government will provide design and project-related documents as part of the competition in order to award a firm-fixed-price base contract for Design Phase Services and to establish pricing for the GMP Option. As a matter of policy, the GSA Contracting Officer will not exercise the GMP Option until the Construction Documents are at least 75% complete. The Design Phase Services portion of the contract provides the opportunity for the CMc to maximize its understanding of the design requirements, design intent, and technical requirements of the Project.

1. Collaboration with the A/E and CMa Contractor

During the Design Phase Services, the CMc will collaborate with the A/E and CMa Contractor on the design, constructability issues, schedule, and cost. The ultimate goal of this collaboration is to establish a final Estimated Cost of Construction that does not exceed the original target ECC (as set forth in the CMc’s proposal). The CMc’s involvement during the design phase offers the project team the ability to identify current market conditions concerning labor and material availability, constructability issues, and any phasing or sequencing impacts.

Ideally, the A/E, CMa Contractor, and their consultants will communicate freely with the CMc and its subcontractors, and vice versa. This will ensure mutual understanding of both the A/E’s design intent and the CMc’s means & methods, and thus ensure greater certainty in pricing the construction work. It also increases the likelihood that design errors & omissions are recognized and resolved during design. In addition, this collaboration takes place during a time that does not significantly impact the construction schedule and can result in expedited production and review of shop drawings once construction commences.

2. Design Phase Meetings At a minimum, the CMc shall attend all of the meetings listed in this section. For each meeting, the CMc shall determine the appropriate attendees based on the subject matter. Unless otherwise noted, all design meetings will be held in-person at the A/E’s office in Jackson, MS.

(Telepresence may be arranged if appropriate and requested in advance)

a) Project Initiation Meeting The CMc shall physically attend an initial meeting with other members of the project team (A/E, CMa Contractor, GSA, Courts) to review the project’s program, status of design, discuss goals, and begin initial project planning.

b) Bi-Weekly Design Update Meetings The CMc shall attend regularly scheduled bi-weekly conference calls led by the A/E for the purpose of apprising the larger project stakeholder audience of current status, work accomplished to date, and upcoming milestones. These meetings occur every other Wednesday at 3:00 pm (Central) and last approximately 30 minutes.

c) Monthly Progress Meetings Once a month, the CMc shall physically attend one of the bi-weekly design update meetings at the A/E’s office in Jackson, MS. The purpose of this meeting will be to have an in-depth roundtable discussion with the core project stakeholders (A/E, CMa Contractor, GSA Project Manager) prior to the bi-weekly conference call.

d) Risk Management

i. Project Definition Rating Index In accordance with the GSA P-120, PBS Cost and Schedule Management Policy Requirements, the A/E is required to participate in no fewer than six (6) workshops with the Government using the Construction Industry Institute’s Project Definition Rating Index (PDRI) to assess risks and opportunities for the project. The first PDRI evaluation session will occur at the 25% design completion stage. The final PDRI will occur at the completion of design to document that the planning and design is complete and the project is ready for construction. After a contract is executed, the CMc will be required to attend/support all remaining PDRI workshops. All PDRI workshops are conducted via conference call and can be expected to last for several hours.

ii. Risk Register Throughout the design and construction of the project, the CMa Contractor shall be responsible for the creation and updating of the Risk Register. With each deliverable from the CMc (see Section III.D), the parties will discuss whether or not the Risk Registry needs to be modified based on the then-current state of the project.

e) Program Review Meetings The CMc shall attend program review meetings before the start of each of the design stage phases.

f) Design Submission Review The CMc shall attend program review meetings after the submission of each report required in Section III.D. The CMc shall include in the meeting any major trade subcontractors, vendors, or suppliers used in preparing the submission. The purpose of including these major parties is to provide increased opportunities to identify and resolve any design-, construction-, or pricing-related issues in the pre-construction phase of the project.

g) Consultation, Progress Meetings, and Presentations The CMc shall be prepared to attend design review meetings, progress meetings, presentations, and community consultation meetings with the A/E as needed throughout the duration of the project.

h) Systems Selections Analysis Meetings and Mockups The CMc shall participate in systems selections analysis meetings, including the inspection and evaluation of mockups for proposed spaces or assemblies.

i) Art in Architecture Review and comment on the constructability of integral architectural and/or engineering elements required by the artwork(s) in the design stage submission documents.

j) Value Management During the Design Phase, the CMa Contractor will be leading value management efforts.

The CMc shall support these efforts and bring knowledgeable staff to the discussion that are prepared to contribute their professional expertise.

k) Partnering To most effectively accomplish this contract, the Government requires that the CMc and its subcontractors participate in a cohesive partnership with the project team. Key personnel from the Government, the CMc and its subcontractors, the A/E, and CMa Contractor will

Greenville, MS 38701 participate in the partnering process. Upon execution of the CMc contract, the CMc shall procure the services of a professional partnering consultant, secure the venue, and coordinate with GSA to attend/host a formal partnering meeting with the project team in Greenville, MS, upon the exercise of the option for construction phase services.

3. Deliverables

a) General The CMc will provide a written deliverable based on the A/E’s design-related submissions for each of the following design milestones (these milestones are further explained in the P100):

50% Construction Documents 90% Construction Documents 100% Construction Documents

Each written deliverable from the CMc is due to the GSA Contracting Officer within 14 calendar days from the CMc’s receipt of the A/E’s design submission.

b) Required Deliverables For each design submission from the A/E, the CMc shall provide a written report that separately addresses each of the following topics:

Constructability Review Cost Estimating, Reconciliation, and Proposed Alternatives Schedule Analysis Construction Work Phasing and Sequencing Plan Early Work Package Suggestions Risk

For each submission, as a general matter, the CMc shall notify GSA of errors, omissions, inconsistencies, or other issues that may potentially impact the project goals, the Estimated Cost of Construction, schedule, design quality, or project scope.

c) Identification of the CMc Team Each report shall include a section that: (1) names each major trade subcontractor, vendor, or supplier that the CMc used or relied on in preparing the report; (2) provides a brief description of the services provided by the company; and (3) the work that the company might perform on the project (if selected by the CMc). Representatives of these companies shall be available to attend post-submission meetings with the Government.

d) Constructability Review The CMc shall review the design submissions with reasonable care and advise GSA in writing of any errors, inconsistencies, inaccuracies, or incompleteness which may negatively impact cost, schedule, scope, or quality. The CMc shall provide recommendations on constructability, life cycle cost improvements, sustainability, LEED/SITES certifications, project commissioning, systems analysis, functionality, enhancing operational flexibility, and minimizing labor or material shortages. The CMc shall also review submissions for accuracy, completeness, sequencing, and coordination.

e) Cost Estimating, Reconciliation, and Proposed Alternatives (CERPA) The CMc is tasked with reviewing the design documents and providing estimates in the same format required by the GSA P-120, PBS Cost and Schedule Management Policy Requirements. The A/E’s contract requires the submission of cost estimates throughout the design process. Thus, the purpose of the CERPA portion of the report is for the Government to have the benefit of two, independent estimates at each major design submission: one from the designer and one from the builder.

The deliverable from the CMc shall: (1) be performed at the same level and detail as set forth in the P100, 2017 edition, Appendix A; (2) comply with the Cost Management Matrix found at Table A-1; and (3) comply with the cost estimating requirements for capital construction projects as set forth in the P-120.

The Government will reconcile the CMc estimate with other estimates to ensure that the project being designed will be constructible within the project’s budget and is consistent with the established GMP. The reconciliation will not only focus on the total GMP, but will also take into account the major cost elements that make-up the total GMP (e.g. structural, MEP, exterior, general conditions, etc.) Large discrepancies or variances in the estimates (whether in whole or in part) will be reconciled prior to exercising the GMP Option.

If the design (or its major cost elements) appears to exceed the Estimated Cost of Construction, the CMc shall propose alternatives that will deliver the project at or below the GMP Option. The CMc and its major trade subcontractors, vendors, or suppliers shall participate in reconciliation meetings at the GSA Regional Office in Fort Worth, TX.

f) Preliminary Project Schedule and Analysis Provide a detailed, time-scaled computer generated project schedule with activities representing each portion of the work for the entire construction period of the project. The schedule shall be prepared using the Critical Path Method (CPM) for the planning, scheduling, and reporting of the work to be performed. The CPM scheduling software shall be capable of generating and depicting the longest path of the schedule network. Schedule tasks and milestones shall accurately depict contractors’ means & methods required to complete the entire construction scope of work.

g) Construction Work Sequencing and Phasing Plan The CMc shall submit a construction work allocation plan addressing all of the following topic areas:

Construction phasing approach

Use of any fast tracking or multiple construction document packages to achieve cost or schedule efficiencies, improvements, or savings

Schedules for award of subcontract construction packages; including procurement cycles, deliverable approvals, construction delivery, and testing/commissioning

Temporary facilities and laydown areas Possible labor or material shortages Long-lead time items

h) Early Work Packages During the design of the project, the CMc and Government may agree that it is in the best interest of the project to initiate early construction packages. These early work packages can be individual GMP line items or firm-fixed-price line items. Early construction packages should be for stand-alone, severable scopes.

i) Modifications to the Risk Registry The CMc shall provide recommendations for modifying the Risk Registry based on the design submissions. The CMa Contractor will be responsible for maintaining and updating the register. The project shall use the Construction Industry Institute’s IR280-2 Risk Register, Version 1.2, 2013 edition for this deliverable.

4. Electronic Project Management (ePM)

The CMc shall be prepared to utilize GSA’s web-based electronic Project Management (ePM) system, which is a fully configured version of Meridian Systems’ Proliance construction management software. ePM provides GSA with a secure automated workflow, collaboration, document management, and project management platform to help manage GSA design and construction projects. ePM is integrated with GSA’s gBUILD (Green Building Upgrade Information Lifecycle Database) to share project creation and data storage information.

GSA uses ePM throughout the design and construction phases as a repository for all project information and as a tool to manage and monitor progress and modifications. Unless as otherwise provided, the CMc shall rely exclusively on ePM to post, review, access, comment on, collaborate, or otherwise submit all project information.

The current ePM minimum requirements can be found at: http://www.gsa.gov/epm.

a) Project Collaboration and Documentation The CMc shall comply with the following:

Effectively manage the ePM database including maintaining adequate staffing levels and ensuring that personnel attend GSA-provided training sessions Use ePM to upload, store, capture, preserve, record, maintain, update, and route all project-related documentation to comply with GSA’s Document Security Requirements

Use the workflow processes contained within ePM to submit and receive approval for all project deliverables

Continuously monitor and review ePM to ensure CMc data is current through the completion of the close-out phase of construction

Store documents from subcontractors and vendors in ePM. If a subcontractor or vendor does not obtain an ePM license, the CMc will be responsible for uploading and processing documents in ePM on their behalf

b) Contents of ePM

The CMc shall use ePM as the electronic filing cabinet for all project-related correspondence and deliverables. This shall include but is not necessarily limited to:

Correspondence Schedules Estimates Design Submissions Daily Reports Inspection Reports Request for Information Change Orders Submittals

c) Training

GSA will provide no cost training to familiarize team members with the ePM software. That being stated, GSA will not reimburse the CMc for any travel related to ePM training.

d) Personnel Security Requirements

An HSPD-12 security clearance is required to access ePM. Project team members without this clearance will need to work with GSA to initiate the investigation process. Further information on HSPD-12 requirements may be found at the following: www.gsa.gov/hspd12.

5. Building Information Modeling (BIM) The purpose of BIM is to enable GSA to have explicit design information to facilitate an accurate review of the design intent and the design’s adherence to the program requirements. The development of BIM shall be an integral part of the project’s design development and is the responsibility of the A/E. All BIM documents and deliverables shall be established in accordance with the P100 and GSA’s BIM Guides at www.gsa.gov/bim.

The CMc shall:

Participate in all meetings during the design phase between the A/E, CMa Contractor, and the Government regarding BIM Review and become familiar with the project’s BIM Execution Plan (BEP) in order to clearly understand requirements, key concepts, and terms

Aid the A/E in supplying constructability, implementation, cost, and other data in creating the BIM throughout the Design Services Phase

Be proficient in BIM technologies and be able to assist the A/E in managing the model Provide a BIM professional with certificate in operation of project software

B. Construction Stage Services

Subject to the GSA Contracting Officer exercising the GMP Option, the CMc shall perform the services described in this section as a part of the Construction Stage.

1. Pre-Construction Conference

The CMc and its primary subcontractors shall attend a pre-construction/kick-off meeting at the jobsite in Greenville, MS.

2. Submittal Processing

Prepare and submit a submittal schedule in accordance with the Division 1 Specifications of the Construction Documents. Ensure that all subcontractors understand, agree to, and conform to their respective roles, responsibilities, and timeliness requirements for submittal processing.

3. Inspections and Testing

The CMc shall:

Conduct all inspections & tests as stipulated in the Construction Document Specifications Coordinate with local and national Government inspectors as needed Conduct OSHA construction safety inspections on a regular basis

4. BIM Requirements

Upon completion of design, the GSA A/E will hand-off to the CMc a BIM file that has been developed to a Level Of Detail (LOD) consistent with 200/300 standards per the GSA BIM Guidelines. It is incumbent on the CMc to either provide in-house expertise or obtain consultant services possessing the necessary technical knowledge needed to elevate the BIM file LOD to 400/500 standards during construction and, ultimately, deliver to GSA an As-Built BIM file.

BIM should be used for construction coordination among the various trades and subcontractors.

Any changes made during construction should be reflected in the As-Built BIM file. All documents pertaining to changes should be generated and originated from the BIM model. In compliance with the BEP, the CMc shall facilitate BIM progress meetings as needed with the A/E and subcontractors to update the as-built conditions of the model.

The CMc shall facilitate a BIM kick-off meeting with the project team. The meeting will update the BEP, roles & responsibilities, and model sharing strategy. The main responsibility of the

CMc with the BIM deliverable during construction is to complete the As-Built BIM in coordination with the A/E. There will be one BIM, whether it is a federated model or multiple models separated by disciplines, used for coordination and change management during construction.

The integrated review process using the BIM model is encouraged throughout construction.

The final as-built BIM model will be submitted to GSA, in native-format and IFC models. The CMc shall submit three (3) in-progress BIM deliverables, including native and IFC models, with a COBie-compliant facility management data set as specified in the project submission schedule. Unless otherwise stated, these deliverables shall occur at 30%, 60%, and 90% construction completion. The CMc shall note these milestones in the BEP. Separate BIM or COBie files shall not be submitted without first coordinating such files with the overall BIM and COBie deliverables.

The CMc is responsible for updating the model based on any deviation or alteration made during construction. Such changes shall be communicated in writing to GSA. The final BIM model and associated work shall be reviewed and approved by GSA prior to acceptance.

5. Requests for Information / Change Orders

When any apparent conflict, ambiguity, error or omission is found within the Construction Documents, the CMc shall use the ePM system to promptly submit a written Request for Information (RFI). Depending on the nature of the RFI, the CMc is encouraged to include a recommended course of action subject to Government review and approval.

RFIs will be directed to the CMa Contractor and A/E via ePM. Each RFI must include a specific description of the issue and cite relevant drawings/specifications in need of clarification. Vague and/or ambiguous RFIs will result in a delayed response from the Government. Upon receipt of the Government’s response to an RFI, the CMc shall disseminate the response to all appropriate subcontractors to ensure proper understanding and take appropriate action.

If the Government’s response to an RFI will result in a cost impact (either negatively or positively) the CMc shall quantify this cost in writing and notify the CMa Contractor immediately so that further evaluation can occur by GSA. In no event shall the CMc proceed with work that will result in a Change Order without first having received formal permission from the GSA Contracting Officer.

The CMa Contractor will develop, update, and maintain the RFI Log to be issued and reviewed at all Progress Meetings throughout the duration of the project. The CMc shall review and confirm that the RFI Log is accurate at each meeting.

6. Payment Requests

Payment requests will be submitted at regular intervals on a monthly basis. Prior to invoicing, the CMc shall first provide an updated schedule and pencil draw to the CMa Contractor and GSA for review and approval. If either the schedule or requested draw are found to be inaccurate, the CMc must revise & resubmit for approval prior to requesting payment.

7. Construction Contingency Allowance

The CMa Contractor will maintain a running account of the funds designated as the construction contingency allowance. The CMc shall review the status of the construction contingency allowance account with GSA and the CMa Contractor on a monthly basis.

8. Construction Excellence Peer Reviews

The CMc shall attend and support three (3) Construction Excellence Peer Reviews to be conducted at the jobsite in Greenville, MS. The first two meetings will occur at 15% and 60% construction completion. The final meeting will be a Lessons Learned session to occur at 90% completion. Each meeting is expected to last one (1) full day and shall be attended by the CMc Project Executive, Project Manager, and Superintendent.

9. Art in Architecture Installation

The CMc shall work with GSA to coordinate the Art in Architecture delivery and installation. All activities related to installation of the artwork and construction of any integral building or sitework elements will have to be closely coordinated in order to avoid disrupting in-progress construction, duplication of effort due to removal/reconstruction of building elements, and/or damaging the artwork.

10. Commissioning

GSA’s P100 requires all capital construction projects to employ Total Building Commissioning practices, as identified in the Building Commissioning Guide. The Commissioning Team (as defined in the Guide) is responsible for working as a cohesive team to ensure that all of the steps in the commissioning process are completed and the facility objectives are met. The Commissioning Roles & Responsibility Matrix on pages 9-11 of the Guide provide a summary of individual roles and responsibilities of the Commissioning Team, including coordination with the team that is examining the utility of commissioning elements of the site work.

11. Turnover Process The turnover process shall be integrated into the schedule to provide opportunities for training, testing, balancing, and remediation prior to tenant occupancy. Specifications shall be written for warranties to take effect at the time of project occupancy regardless of punch-list and project acceptance.

a) Preparation for Occupancy The CMc shall conduct training of operating staff in optimal operation and maintenance of the delivered facility. Training shall commence 120 days prior to substantial completion.
