SECTION I

I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

This Statement of Work (SOW) is for architectural and engineering (AE) services. The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) intends to renovate Building 53, located on the Denver Federal Center in Lakewood, CO as described herein that includes the abatement of hazardous materials, repairing structural and architectural deficiencies, modernizing building systems to create an efficient and comfortable working environment, and improving interior spaces to allow the backfill of the asset with federal agencies.

PROJECT HISTORY

Building 53 is a two-story structure (with 8 mechanical penthouses) located on the west edge of the Denver Federal Center Campus, between 5th Street and 6th Street, and between Center Avenue and Main Avenue.

The original building was constructed in 1941 during World War II as part of a small arms munitions manufacturing plant. The structure has been upgraded several times to office and warehouse space. Its current area is 387,826 gross square feet. After the war, it was converted to use by the Federal government.

Although numerous renovations have been constructed since 1941, due to its age and lack of total modernization, some of the building’s architectural, mechanical and electrical systems have exceeded their useful service life. The structural system is adequate for upgraded use.

The GSA has been tasked with reconfiguring and renovating space within Building 53 on the Denver Federal Center to support GSA and Department of the Interior (DOI) ongoing consolidation efforts to improve space utilization, optimize inventory, decrease reliance on leased space, and reduce the Government’s environmental footprint.

Currently Building 53 houses a number of different federal agencies:

1. DHS - Department of Homeland Security

● Federal Protective Service

2. DOD - Department of Defense

● Defense Civilian Personnel Advisory Service (DCPAS)

3. DOI - Department of the Interior

● Bureau of Land Management (BLM)

● Bureau of Reclamation (USBR)

● National Park Service

● Office of Natural Resources and Revenue (ONRR)

● Office of the Secretary (DOI)

● U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)

4. DOL - Department of Labor

● Employee Standards Admin Office of Workers Compensation Program

(LDOWCP)

● Office of the Inspector General (LD INSP GEN)

5. DOT - Department of Transportation

● Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration

6. EPA - Environmental Protection Agency

● Environmental Protection Agency

7. GSA - General Services Administration

● Out Leased Space

● Public Buildings Service Field Office (GSA PBS)

8. HHS - Health and Human Services

● Center for Disease Control (CDC)

● Office of the Secretary

9. SBA - Small Business Administration

● Small Business Administration

10. USDA - US Department of Agriculture

● Forest Services

● Natural Resources Conservation Service

11. VA - U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs

● Office of Information Technology (VA OIT)

● Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA)

These agencies occupy two thirds of the building footprint and the majority of these spaces have recently had major upgrades. However, the remaining third of the building is vacant and needs extensive modernization.

In addition, three additional agencies will be occupying Building 53. They are:

● Department of Interior (DOI), Business Integration Office (BIO)

● Department of Interior (DOI), Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS)

● Department of Interior (DOI), Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO)

Building 53 is not considered to be historically significant, as the Colorado State Preservation Office has concurred that building alterations to building 53 under the DFC Master Site Plan will not have adverse effects to historic properties.

The need for modernization for this building is pivotal. The large vacant areas on both the first and second floors, through their age and deterioration have diminished the building’s viability and desirability. This underutilized vacant office space could provide prime office space for agencies to relocate from leased space in the community as well as consolidate from other buildings at the DFC. In its current state the building cannot perform at the level required by GSA for a contemporary federal facility, much less provide the quality needed to draw and keep tenants.

A.MAJOR WORK ITEMS

The proposed project will upgrade building systems and fire suppression system, repair structural and architectural deficiencies, repair existing elevators and install an additional elevator, abate hazardous materials, improve landscaping as well as provide interior office space build out. This project will provide a more efficient layout that both reduces agency utilization rates and allows for the recapture of and backfill of approximately 164,000 rentable square feet (rsf) of vacant federally owned space. The vacant space will be occupied by theDepartment of the Interior (DOI) – Business Integration Office (BIO), DOI – Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS) and DOI – Office of Chief Information Officer (OCIO).

The project’s minimum target is LEED Gold Certification; however the goal is LEED Platinum Certification.

The design shall maximize space utilization for the agencies, creating an advanced and modern work environment. The design team shall ensure a high performing building that employs a whole building design approach which maximizes the building’s original construction and inherent characteristics to drive efficiency cost effectively. The AE will strive to deliver an award winning project which embraces the ethos of design excellence, advanced technology, and exhibits a high degree of ingenuity, and creativity.

The interior design shall support each agency’s mission of excellence by developing a gathering place that facilitates a rich professional and community life. The interior space plan should achieve optimal efficiencies in the use and organization of spaces, circulation and core functions. Daylighting strategies such as light-wells or courtyards and floor penetrations created by modification of the roof and floor structure should be considered to bring additional light into the core of the building. Enclosed offices, conference spaces, huddle rooms, and phone booths, which require walls shall be placed near the core so that natural daylight not be blocked. Glass walls and partitions can be used to transmit light. Each agency’s program will determine the number of conference spaces, huddle rooms, phone booths, reception areas, etc. New enclosed offices, meeting rooms, etc. will be required. This can be achieved by fixed hard walls or demountable walls.

Rather than “Open Office” the goal is “Balanced Office” space. There should be some open office areas with adjacencies to private rooms. The interior environment should reflect the different agencies, but the design should be complementary. This may tie to a larger way-finding design for the building, so the design is cohesive. When practical the interior finishes should be compliment the existing building finishes (for example door hardware could be the same color as the existing, but an updated style). The interior environment shall be designed to enhance occupant comfort, productivity, creativity, and general health and well-being. The interior shall be an environment that fosters the mission of each agency, as well as a sense of community to reflect 21st century workplace strategies. Materials, colors and textures shall create an enjoyable, open yet cozy, well defined user experience for both everyday users and visitors to the building. Create branding throughout the building so that as you pass through the building each agency’s mission is highlighted. The use of color for identification and way-finding is encouraged, as well as the use of materials and textures. Demolition will be required of existing light gauge steel framed gypsum board walls, in addition to the removal of carpet, acoustic ceilings, and lighting. Other miscellaneous demolition is also required. Recycle and salvage as much material as possible.

A new cafeteria shall replace the existing cafeteria that is frequently used by current building occupants. The new cafeteria should be relocated to the perimeter of the building so it can be a campus wide amenity. It should also be adjacent to the Visitor’s Entrance. Visitors who enter the cafeteria must not be able to access the rest of the building.

Restrooms in Building 53 are a mix of old and new equipment and fixtures. Some of the restrooms have been renovated, but many not be compliant with current ADA/ ABASS standards and will need to be re-configured and updated to meet code and provide for the comfort of all building occupants.

Building components and systems within Building 53 are also in need of repair and/or replacement. A detailed description of each work activity is described within the 2019 Program Development Study (PDS) that is added to the Appendix of this scope of work.

The PDS has an abundance of information about the existing conditions and expectations of each building component and/or system as it relates to this project.

B. PROJECT DELIVERY METHOD DESCRIPTION

GSA has chosen the delivery method known as Construction Manager as Constructor (CMc). With the CMc delivery method, the General Contractor is competitively selected during the design phase of the project and provides a variety of pre-construction services and construction services, with the establishment of a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) and award a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) construction contract. For this project, the Government will also retain an independent Construction Manager as Agent (CMa) to assist in procurement activities and any other activities required. A Commission Agent (CxA) will also be procured for this project. All parties will be expected to cooperate and partner with the goal of successfully completing an award winning design and construction project on-time and on-budget.

Building 53 is one of the largest buildings on the Denver Federal Center. It is anticipated that this will be a very high profile project which will require close coordination with GSA and the primary tenant agency representatives regionally and nationally.

C.PROJECT GOALS

1. Build dynamic partnerships and a cohesive team with all contracted parties and GSA, aligning goals and vision in order to successfully deliver this project’s scope on-time and on-budget. A truly integrated project team.

2. Design a project which implements the use of innovative technology and capitalizes on the inherent characteristics of this building to deliver an energy efficient building.

3. Select systems and materials that not only improve performance, comfort, and are visually stunning; but are also cost effective, easily operated and maintained, with durability and longevity in-mind. Our goal will not only be to achieve design excellence, but also operational excellence.

4. Design and construct functional and modern office environments which not only accommodates the agency’s mission, but improves their ability to perform their mission. The spaces should be unique to each agency incorporating elements of the service they provide, the history of their department, and the mission they serve into the architectural and interior design of their spaces.

5. Renovate the building systems to achieve the maximum energy efficiency and water conservation; improve interior air quality; meet or exceed thermal, acoustic, and visual comfort criteria; and create a flexible design that can be adapted as occupant needs change.

6. Create a highly collaborative relationship and dialog between the AE, CMc, CMa, CxA, and GSA.

7. Deliver an award winning project, recognized both regionally and nationally for its innovation and commitment to excellence.

D.PROJECT OBJECTIVES

1. Design and execute the renovation of the building within the timeframe and budget limits established by the Government, minimizing cost and optimizing life-cycle cost to the facility.

2. Provide a facility that is accessible and usable by all.

3. Promote efficient space utilization throughout the building.

4. Design a facility with flexible infrastructure capable of adapting to changing technology.

5. Design the renovation of the building in accordance with GSA Facilities Standards for the Public Building Service (P-100).

6. Implement all programmatic requirements of the agency’s within their space.

Where program requirements impact other objectives, work with the agencies to find a solution which meets their needs but does not compromise on the overall project goals.

E. PROJECT BUDGET

1. The Estimated Cost of Construction at Award (ECCA) which established the overall construction budget for this project is $43.7M. All design submittals must conform to the established budget.

2. During the design, any overage as calculated by the AE and/or cost consultant must be reconciled against the Construction budget with proposals for cost reduction within (2) two weeks of the reported overage. The Government will provide direction based on the cost reduction report within (2) two weeks of receipt of the AE’s proposals for reconciliation.

3. The Government will contract with a CMc and CMa. Both the CMc and CMa will provide independent cost opinions of the AE design. In the case of differing opinions regarding cost, the AE will conduct a reconciliation effort to understand and document differences of opinion. Such an effort would consist of contracting materials, assemblies, and/or labor providers jointly with the government consultants to precisely identify differences of assumptions between both assessments based on more precise market data.

SECTION II

II. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

The General Requirements shall apply to all project phases. Some of the requirements noted in this section may be subject to the exercise of contract option(s).

As a general matter, the Facilities Standards for the Public Buildings Service (P-100) represents the overarching document that governs the Contractor’s performance of work. In addition, other policies and procedures (e.g., the P-120 and tenant agency design guides) provide detailed procedures and requirements that the Contractor shall follow. The purpose of this Statement of Work is to primarily set forth services that the Contractor shall provide in addition to the services outlined in other documents (refer to Section II, C Reference Materials).

A.OWNER’S PROGRAM OF REQUIREMENTS (POR)

Applicability

The POR provided from 2019 provides the detailed requirements for each space including: function, finishes, adjacencies, equipment, security, circulation, servicing and other performance characteristics. The POR includes requirements for all space types including service, tenant, public, parking, etc, as well as all technical requirements for whole building systems and attributes.

In addition, the P-100 will identify the tier requirement. The Contractor shall review, validate, and update the POR prior to design beginning. Meetings with the customer agencies will be required to go over details of the program and adjust them accordingly.

Spatial Data Management (SDM)

The Spatial Data Management (SDM) Program is a national effort to measure, record, and maintain federally owned and leased space assignments to support rent bills and provide transparency to all stakeholders. Please refer to GSA’s website for more information.

https://www.gsa.gov/real-estate/design-construction/spatial-data-managemen t-overview

As noted in the P-100, at each submission stage, the Contractor shall provide an IFC BIM and 2D CAD plans, one for each level of the facility, with assignment data and space boundaries in compliance with the National Business Space Assignment Policy. The P-100 and GSA BIM Guide 02 contain additional requirements for SDM.

B. PROJECT DURATION AND SCHEDULE MILESTONE DATES

The Contractor shall refer to the Contract, however it is anticipated that the following milestones shall be approximate dates of what it to follow:

● Design Contract Notice to Proceed (NTP): 06/01/2020

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 (e.g. sustainability information for gBUILD), the Contractor shall rely exclusively on ePM to post, review, access, comment on, collaborate, or otherwise submit all project information.

Project Collaboration and Documentation

The Contractor shall effectively manage the ePM database including maintaining adequate staffing levels and ensuring that personnel attend the mandatory GSA provided training sessions.

The Contractor shall use ePM to upload, store, capture, preserve, record, maintain, update, and route all project related documentation to comply with GSA’s Document Security Requirements. Classified material is not permitted to be stored in this system.

The Contractor shall use the workflow process contained within ePM to submit and receive approval for all project deliverables.

The Contractor shall continuously monitor and review ePM to ensure the Contractor data is current through the completion of close-out phase of construction.

The Contractor is required to store documents from their subcontractors and vendors in ePM. If a subcontractor or vendor does not obtain an ePM license, the Contractor will be responsible for uploading and processing documents in ePM on their behalf.

E.2. Contents of ePM

The Contractor shall use ePM as the electronic filing cabinet for all project-related correspondence and submittals. The contract and SOW specify certain documentation that the Contractor shall provide during performance of the contract. For the avoidance of doubt, the following represents a non-exclusive list of project information that shall be posted in ePM:

correspondence, schedules, estimates, design submissions, daily reports, inspection reports, request for information, change orders and project milestone submissions.

E.3. Equipment

GSA will not furnish any equipment related to accessing ePM. ePM is web-accessible and can therefore be accessed via any compatible computer (see subsection F6 below) with an internet connection.

E.4. Training

GSA will provide no cost training to familiarize team members with the ePM system. That being stated, GSA will not reimburse the Contractor for any travel related to ePM training. ePM training can be scheduled at Building 41 on the Denver Federal Center Campus in Lakewood CO. A training date will be scheduled when all Contractor staff and subcontractor staff can attend.

E.5. Support

GSA will provide ePM system administration and end-user support for the duration of the project. The ePM minimum requirements (including IT equipment) can be found at: http://www.gsa.gov/epm

E.6. Personnel Requirements

An HSPD-12 (Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12) security clearance is required to access ePM. Project team members without an HSPD-12 clearance will need to work with the GSA Project Manager to initiate the clearance process and request a temporary waiver for ePM access until clearance can be confirmed. A waiver means that once the individual’s HSPD-12 clearance is confirmed, an ePM username and password will be provided. (The Contractor may not assume that a waiver will be granted). The time to process and obtain clearances may vary in length. Further information on HSPD-12 may be found at the following website: www.gsa.gov/hspd12

F. BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING (BIM)

In addition to the P-100, the Contractor shall comply with BIM Guides 02, 07, and 08.

BIM Guide 02 - Spatial Program Validation defines how BIM shall be sued to validate spatial program requirements for each phase of design and construction.

BIM Guide 07 - Building Elements elucidates different forms of building information and provides guidance for how such information should be created, modified, and maintained in order to allow it to be utilized by multiple downstream business processes.

BIM Guide 08 - Facility Management defines requirements including the application of COBie (Construction Operations Building Information Exchange) and how to interface with GSA’s standardized NCMMS (National Computerized Maintenance Management System).

All BIM submissions shall comply with the deliverable requirements found in the P-100, section 1.10.3, standardized facility asset data in IFC-based (Industry Foundation Class) Building Information Models, along with native BIM format. See P-100 Appendix.

http://www.gsa.gov/epm http://www.gsa.gov/hspd12

2D drawings shall be derived from the BIM model and comply with the PBS CAD Standards.

The BIM deliverables shall contain site information that is properly positioned in accordance with: (a) a coordinate system in the model space; and (b) a geographic coordinate system in the real world. (Note: models that do not include site information in their primary authoring tool will not be able to export location information to IFC and will be rejected as non-compliant). See BIM Guide 07.

The Contractor shall attend a BIM kick-off meeting at the beginning of the Concept Design Phase and prior to construction phase (Refer to Section IV Appendix). In addition, the Contractor shall submit the initial BIM Execution Plan (BEP) to the CO during the Pre-Design Phase. After submission of the BEP, but prior to acceptance, the Contractor shall demonstrate all tasks, tools, and workflows proposed in the initial BEP in a live meeting for GSA to verify that the BEP will work as planned. At each design phase, the Contractor shall revise the BEP with input and concurrence from the GSA project team. If new tasks, tools, and/or workflows are included in the BEP updates, these shall be demonstrated in live meetings with the GSA project team. See BIM Guide 07.

G.ENERGY AND SUSTAINABILITY

The Contractor shall use an integrated design process to meet or exceed the performance requirements for energy and sustainability and provide a design that will achieve the goals for the construction of a high performing green building as set forth in the contract documents. In addition, the Contractor shall provide a design that minimizes the amount of energy needed to operate the building.

The design shall meet or exceed fossil fuel reduction requirements mandated by Section 433 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA).

If the Contractor is unable to achieve the mandate contained in EPAct, the Contractor shall provide the CO with: (1) documentation to establish the highest level of estimated energy savings for the proposed design; and (2) documentation to establish why EPAct cannot be satisfied.

G.1. Guiding Principles Checklist In February 2016, and in accordance with Executive Order 13696 (Planning for Federal Sustainability in the Next Decade, March 19, 2015), the Council on Environmental Quality issued the Guiding Principles for Sustainable Federal Buildings and Associated Instructions (the Guiding Principles). Each agency subject to EO 13696 (including GSA) is responsible for evaluating which of its buildings comply with the Guiding Principles, and ensuring that sufficient evidence and documentation is readily available to demonstrate compliance with the Guiding Principles for those buildings. (As set forth below, GSA uses a

Guiding Principles Checklist (see Section IV APPENDIX, subsection LL) within the gBUILD database to track compliance.)

GSA developed its Guiding Principles Checklist (composed of Guiding Principles Criteria, or GPCs) to track and report its new construction and major modernization projects’ compliance with the Guiding Principles. The GPCs are only required for these two project types, which either construct or significantly expand structures, or replace nearly all major building systems.

GSA makes no warranties or guarantees regarding the Checklist and, thus, the Contractor should not rely on or use the Checklist as a source for determining mandatory design requirements. That stated, in developing the design submissions, the Contractor should refer to the Checklist and be prepared to articulate, via GSA’s web-based gBUILD database described below, how GPC requirements are being met by the project’s design and construction, and why certain requirements, if any, cannot be met (e.g., because not applicable or not life-cycle-cost effective (as those terms as described in the Guiding Principles)).

G.2. Energy Modeling and Performance

The Contractor shall develop an energy model to predict the annual energy consumption of the building. (Note that the energy model is different from the energy cost savings required for LEED credits.) The contractor may utilize the project BIM to serve as the basis of the energy model. See BIM Guide 05. The energy model shall integrate energy-related information and criteria from other sections of the SOW that may affect energy savings. In developing the energy model, the following definitions, assumptions, and conditions shall apply:

Baseline Building: The baseline building is based on the minimum requirements set forth by ASHRAE / IESNA Standard 90.1-2013. (Note that this is not the Energy Cost Budget Method used by ASHRAE for standard code compliance calculations.)

Proposed Building: The building designed by the Contractor.

Simulations: The simulations shall be modeled with an 8,760 hour program in accordance with ASHRAE 90.1-2013.

Updates: The Contractor shall calculate the annual energy usage and Energy Use Intensity, in kBTU/GSF/year, at each phase of the design process from concept submittal through final construction documents.

As-Builts: During the construction phase, the Contractor shall update the energy model to as-built conditions.

Ownership: The Government’s rights to the model are set forth in the applicable FAR/GSAR clauses incorporated into the contract.

G.3 LEED and SITES Certifications

The Contractor shall design the project to achieve, at a minimum, a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Version 4 Gold rating.

The Contractor shall register the project and achieve for certification with the US Green Building Council (USGBC) for LEED. The Contractor shall pay all fees associated with registering, applying for, appealing, and otherwise obtaining LEED certification. The Contractor shall list the US General Services Administration as the owner. The project shall be listed as Non-Confidential.

The Contractor shall: (1) take the lead role in coordinating all activities of the various contractors, subcontractors, consultants, and stakeholders associated with the project in order to maximize the ability to achieve the required LEED certification; (2) generally provide all services reasonably necessary to obtain the LEED certification levels; (3) review, prepare, collect, and otherwise assemble all documentation needed to support the LEED certification submission, including reviewing, analyzing, preparing, and processing any appeals relating to the denial of any credit(s).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Contractor shall not submit any documentation to USGBC without first obtaining written approval of the CO.

In preparing the design, the Contractor shall use its professional judgement in deciding how to best design the project to acquire enough credits to achieve the required LEED certification. That being stated, in deciding which credits to incorporate into the design, the Contractor shall also be cognizant of and take into account, among others, the overall scope and nature of the project; the goals of GSA, its tenant agency(s), and the mission of the tenant agency(s);

location of the project; and the studies, analysis, and other documents included or attached to this SOW. The Contractor shall submit all possible credits to USGBC, even those in excess of the required minimum certifications.

The Contractor shall provide the CO with a milestone schedule for various submissions required by USGBC. Those milestones might include, but not limited to, the initial registration; various design stages; various construction stages; commissioning; and post-occupancy. The milestone schedule shall include a requirement that the Contractor submit documentation to USGBC to obtain final LEED rating one year following Substantial Completion (as determined by the CO).

G.4 GSA High Performance Building Tracking (gBUILD)

GSA uses an online system called the Green Building Upgrade Information Lifecycle Database (gBUILD) to centrally track and report sustainability information for its design and construction program. One of the main purposes of the gBUILD system is to track, document, and otherwise demonstrate compliance with the Guiding Principles (E.O. 13693).

The Contractor shall input information into gBUILD at the following four milestones: (1) Concept Design; (2) 100% Design Development, (3) 90% Construction Documents; and (4) Substantial Completion. Required information for projects includes: scope/technology details; anticipated energy and water performance; and total/diverted tons of construction and demolition waste at substantial completion. The Contractor shall provide the GSA’s gBUILD team (gbuild@gsa.gov) with the name and contact information for the main gBUILD point of contact and any additional employees who will input project-specific information into gBUILD. In addition to inputting information, the Contractor shall work to collaboratively respond to data calls issued by GSA central office ODC within 60 days.

GSA (gbuild@gsa.gov) will provide the Contractor with system instructions, training, support, and access. The Contractor’s gBUILD access is subject to satisfying HSPD-12 security requirements.

H. RISK MANAGEMENT

H.1. Project Definition Rating Index (PDRI)

The Contractor shall participate in risk sessions that will be conducted at Building 41 on the Denver Federal Center. During these sessions, the parties will use the Construction Industry Institute’s Project Definition Rating Index or GSA’s Risk Assessment to assess risks and opportunities for the project. The first PDRI evaluation session typically occurs at approximately 35% design completion stage. The final PDRI typically occurs at the completion of design to document that the planning and design is complete and the project is ready for construction.

H.2. Cost and Schedule Risk Analysis

The Contractor shall perform a quantitative risk analysis as indicated in the P-120 Tables 6-1 through 6-20.

The Risk Analysis type per the GSA Triage Tool at the Pre-Project Phase is 4.
