FOR
MULTIPLE AWARD CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT
(MACC)
JOINT BASE ANDREWS, MARYLAND
JOINT BASE ANACOSTIA-BOLLING, WASHINTON DC
AIR FORCE DISTRICT OF WASHINGTON (AFDW)
06 March 2020
1. PURPOSE AND SCOPE: The required work to be performed by the contractor consists of, but is not limited to, bid-build or design-build construction of a broad range of maintenance, restoration and modernization (R&M), repair/alteration, demolition, and renovation of real property of high complexity at Joint Base Andrews (JBA), MD and its tenants (Davidsonville and Brandywine sites in MD and the Air Force Memorial in Arlington VA and Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling (JBAB), Washington DC and its associated tenants. This requirement shall not include MILCON or Unspecified Minor Military Construction (UMCC) projects. This requirement shall not add real property to JBA or
JBAB.
1.1. The primary goal of the MACC is timely and competitive acquisition of government facility repair, alteration and update project requirements for real property, land, and real property installed equipment. In the event of an emergency and emergent requirement, the contractor’s response time for proposal site visit and proposal submission may be severely shortened. Therefore, it is imperative that contractors, and/or their representative, designate an individual who has the authority to bind or otherwise obligate the company and have them readily available.
1.2. All work shall be in conformance with the requirements of the contract including furnishing all materials, labor, plant, tools, equipment, transportation, supervision, management, and other services (including engineering/technical design support) items and incidentals necessary thereto.
1.3. Physical Location:
1.3.1. Joint Base Andrews
1050 W Perimeter Rd Joint Base Andrews, MD 20762
1.3.2. Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling
20 MacDill Blvd SE Washington, DC 20032
2. DEFINITIONS: All work under this contract shall comply with all definitions and requirements in this paragraph.
2.1. As-Built Drawings: The amended "as-designed" drawings revised to show the project as the contractor built and constructed it. The revisions from Contractor Markups and field inspection notes are transferred to the final as-built set of drawings. The final as-built drawings include modifications during construction, field requested changes, shop drawing modifications, and contractor designs.
2.2. Build: The process by which the contractor provides only construction services for a project based on design documents provided by the government.
2.3. Color Board: A visual presentation consisting of samples of the various finishes, grouped together based on location within the project that may be required as directed by the government. Samples shall be of adequate size to show the full pattern, texture, and color of each item and shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer, or as directed by the Contracting Officer, in the standard submittal format.
2.4. Design-Build (DB): The process by which the same contractor provides both the design and construction services for a project, typically completing the design before construction activity begins. When directed by the government, elements of construction may begin before design is completed. In the Design-Build process, final design solutions are provided by the DB contractor, not the Government. The DB contractor is responsible for their own design, construction quality, and for full compliance with the RFP and his or her accepted proposal. The government reserves the right to choose and change the level of design effort required for individual task orders.
2.5. Design Charrette: An intensely focused face-to-face project design activity led by the contractor to build consensus between government representatives and the contractor’s design and construction team on the project’s functional, aesthetic, technical, environmental, siting and layout, and other requirements. Participants represent all those who have a stake in the project outcome. A charrette report shall be submitted to the government for review and approval prior to finalizing the Design Charrette phase of an individual task order.
2.6. Design Review Comments: Comments provided by the government after receipt and review of the contractor’s design submittal. The percentage of design increases by 5% after government acceptance of the contractors responses to the design review comments. For example the project is at 10% design after the contractor submits the Project Definition Design to the government. The government will then provide written review comments back to the contactor and in turn the contractor will provide written responses to the governments review comments. After the government accepts the contractor’s review comment responses the project will be at 15% design. The government reserves the right to reject submittals and require re-submittal as needed if the submittal doesn’t meet task order requirements.
2.7. Design Review Meeting: After the contractor receives the government design review comments and sends an official response to the comments back to the government, a meeting led by the contractor is held between the contractor’s design team and the government to discuss the response to government comments and determine if the contractor can proceed to the next design phase. Government reserves the right to require contractor to re-submit all or portions of the design submittal if it doesn’t meet task order requirements.
2.8. Facility: Any real property to include, but not be limited to buildings, pavement, fencing, utilities, landscaping and drainage ditches.
2.9. Final Design (100% Design): The final design is the result of the contractor’s design efforts from 95% to 100%. Final Design begins after government approval of the contractor’s responses to the government’s review comments on the Pre-Final Design (90% Design) which sets project at 95% design complete. The final design includes any changes necessary to comply with government comments to the pre-final design, complete plans and specifications, final design analysis, and color boards and finishes.
Upon government approval of the Final Design, construction schedule, and all other plans and associated permits, the contractor can commence construction activities.
2.10. Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) / Government Furnished Material (GFM):
Items of equipment or material which the government may supply to the contractor for use in a project.
2.11. Intermediate Design (60% Design): The intermediate design is the result of the contractor’s design efforts from 35% to 60%.
