236220 – “Commercial and Institutional Building Construction” $39.5 Million mailto:frank_camacho@nps.gov mailto:amber_hughes@nps.gov

FODO 253278; Construction.

Product Service Code (PSC): Z2JZ – “Repair or Alteration of Miscellaneous Buildings”

Construction Magnitude: $1,000,000.00 - $5,000,000.00

Bonding: Bid, Performance, and Payment Bonds will be required.

Project Scope: This requirement is for the rehabilitation of the Fort Donelson Visitor Center, which has been vacant and exposed to the elements since approximately 2017. Specifically, NPS requires construction of the full Visitor Center, to include a three-story glass and steel addition, providing for an elevator to all levels of the Visitor Center; an interior interpretive and viewing area; rehabilitation of the building’s entire interior; and restoration of key interior and exterior details. Also, the building shall have a fully new infrastructure of systems, utilities, with safety and accessibility design implementation priority. Additional improvements to occur prior to the building’s re-opening will include construction of a bookstore area off of the main lobby;

enhancements to the Visitor Center museum and exhibits; and implementation of modern media technology to the theater, providing for a wider spectrum of educational and presentation opportunities.

The project scope has an emphasis on Architectural Barriers Act (ABA), National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and International Building Code (IBC) compliance. There will be a considerable Life Safety scope, including new egress and elevator installations/retrofits. Unique materials could be comprised of elevator(s), life safety and fire systems, security systems and considerable upgrades to HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning), electrical, plumbing, and structural elements.

The Park is to remain open during construction; however; the Visitor Center shall remain closed to Park visitors and staff. The anticipated period of performance is 365 calendar-days, from approximately July 2021 to June 2022, including any potential weather shutdown. Due to the historic nature of the building structure, extra precautions for the remaining site requires ample site protections and best management practices.
