Enclosure 1

The scope of this SATOC IDIQ will encompass architectural and engineering services for a project that will require multiple phases of design, including but not limited to design services, drafting, planning, programming, cost estimating, topographic or boundary surveys, engineering studies, site investigations, value engineering services, subsurface geotechnical investigation/testing/reports, environmental studies/testing/reports, hazardous materials testing and abatement. Additional services include construction phase support services such as site visits, shop drawing reviews, submittal reviews, responses to requests for information, design during construction, field investigations, and other technical support. All work must be performed by or under the direct supervision of licensed professional Architects or Registered Engineers.

The work required extends beyond your typical single project effort, in that it involves the planning, phasing, investigation, design, scheduling, management, coordinating, and construction administrative support for a fluctuating flow of simultaneous phases of design and construction throughout the duration of the contract and in support of the ANC Entry Corridor project. Therefore, the chosen A-E will be required to respond rapidly to Government requirements with outstanding professionalism, top quality craftsmanship, quality control, and coordination of the various disciplines without compromising professional standards, current mission requirements, and end user readiness. It is imperative that the A-E provides a flexible and multidisciplined work force of the highest quality.

This project focuses on Memorial Avenue and the historic entrance into the cemetery welcome area for funeral attendees, dignitaries, and visitors alike. A Feasibility Study was completed in October 2024 in support of this project in which six zones (or phases) were defined as follows: Zone (1) Memorial Avenue, Zone (2) the Transportation Area, Zone (3) Pedestrian Screening Facility and Welcome Center,

(4) Area West of the Welcome Center, Zone (5) Columbarium Flex Space North of Memorial Avenue, and (6) Burial Flex Space South of the Parking Garage. A comprehensive planning and coordination effort will be needed at the outset of the design phase to ensure that project development, site utility alignments, and design and construction phasing are implemented to fully align with cemetery operations and visitor activities.

All task orders will define the work in as much detail as possible. This work definition will vary from minimal narrative descriptions to detailed concept information, depending on government requirements and the information available. The jobs included will require a variety of professional management, architectural, engineering, and consultant skills. When task orders are issued, the contractor shall be required to have a licensed professional assigned to the project, and in the case of a task order in conjunction of a Design-Bid-Build (D-B-B) construction project, task order awardee will become the Designer of Record (DOR).

All services shall be performed in accordance with ANC Installation Design Guides, Norfolk District Design Guide, as well as all applicable codes and criteria required for Government work (UFC, UFGS, etc.). Facilities shall be fully accessible to meet the requirements of Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) and all applicable laws, codes and regulations pertinent to accessibility. All work shall be performed in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) (https://www.acquisition.gov/FAR/). Designs will be prepared using US Standard English units of measure. ProjNet (DrChecks) (https://www.projnet.org) will be used for comment resolution of all design review submittals.

The type of primary services expected to be performed under this contract include but are not limited to:

i. DRAWINGS: All drawings produced for this contract shall be in compliance with the Architectural, Engineering, and Construction (A-E/C) CADD standards as issued by the CADD/BIM Technology Center https://cadbim.usace.army.mil. The Government will only accept the final products, without conversion or reformatting, in the Autodesk suite of software (AutoCAD or Revit). Drawings produced by scanning drawings of record or containing photographic images shall be delivered in a raster format compatible with AutoCAD electronic digital format. GIS information shall adhere to the Tri-Service Spatial Data Standards.

ii. SPECIFICATIONS: The basic contract specifications will be the Unified Facilities Guide Specifications. Other specifications and criteria (including industry standards) may be required by the government based on the location of the project and ownership of the facility.

Substitutions may be considered on a case-by-case basis, but only if approved by the Government.

iii. ESTIMATING REQUIREMENTS: Cost estimates shall be prepared using MII software in work breakdown structure (WBS), narrative documentation utilizing Microsoft Office Word.

iv. DESIGN SERVICES: shall include but not be limited to:

A. Permits: The A-E shall identify all necessary permits, licenses and approvals needed from all local, State, and Federal authorities required during the design. Permits which are the responsibility of the A-E shall be obtained during the design stage, (e.g.

permits associated with storm water management, erosion and sediment control, and the National Pollutant Elimination Discharge Permit). Those permits, which are the responsibility of the construction contractor, should be identified in Section 1, Job Conditions, of the contract specifications. Should it become necessary in the performance of the work and services for the A-E to secure the right of ingress and egress to perform any of the work on properties not owned or controlled by the Government, the Government will secure the consent of the owner, his representative, or agent, prior to the A-E’s effecting entry on such property. The A-E shall coordinate all rights-of-entry through the project manager.

B. A-E services: The A-E under each task order shall perform all work required accomplishing the intent of such task order, and unless otherwise specifically provided therein, shall perform the required services, which may include, but not limited to the following:

Studies: Consisting of investigations, feasibility studies, researching technologies, survey of existing conditions, sketches and cost estimates.

Reports: Consisting of discussions of the study and investigations, description of all plans and schemes considered for obtaining the desired end result of the study.

All drawings and sketches are required to present and illustrate the details and results of the study. Required estimates of construction costs, including comparative costs for indicated alternate plans and schemes and results conclusions, and any recommendations must be included.
