About this file
This document provides details of an industry day event and related federal contract opportunity for the design-build construction of an Agricultural Research Service and Washington State University Plant Bioscience Research Building. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Seattle District will host a virtual industry day on December 7, 2021 from 9:00 to 10:00 AM Pacific Time to provide an overview of the requirement and acquisition strategy for the project. The anticipated acquisition is a firm-fixed price design-build contract with an estimated value between $25-100 million. The project scope involves the construction of a new approximately 100,000 gross square foot research facility on the WSU campus in Pullman, Washington to provide joint laboratory and office space for plant bioscience research. Key considerations for the design include connecting the new building to the existing Vogel Plant Biosciences Building and Research and Education Complex. The solicitation is expected to be released in February 2022.

ORDER TO RECEIVE EMAIL INFORMATION FOR WEBINAR ACCESS.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Seattle District intends to collaborate with industry as we prepare the acquisition plan and solicitation for a Plant Bioscience Research Building project on the Washington State University Pullman Campus.
The purpose of the virtual event is for the Government to provide an update and overview of ARS Plant Biosciences Research Building requirement. We understand the importance to the construction industry to have advance knowledge of the project, and we welcome industry’s participation and input in the development of the requirement’s acquisition plan.
The webinar will take approximately one-hour where the Government will present information and invite industry to share observations and concerns. The anticipated acquisition strategy is a firm-fixed price type contract Design-Build project with a tentative solicitation publication of February 2022.
Project Synopsis:
DB construction of a new ~100,000GSF Research Facility on the WSU campus. The new facility will provide joint ARS and WSU laboratory and office space for plant biosciences for the U.S. Department of Agriculture/ARS. The proposed project will be a firm fixed-price construction project. The magnitude of the construction project is between $25 million and $100 million. For this potential project, 100 percent payment and performance bonds will be required.
Key considerations include connection to the existing Vogel Plant Biosciences Building which has laboratory but no office space for ARS and WSU scientists. Inclusion of additional offices to support ARS scientists with labs, but no offices, in the Vogel building is critical. Connection to the Research and Education Complex (REC) Spine which includes collaborative space, loading docks and utility connections.
The new facility will provide joint ARS and WSU laboratory and office space for plant biosciences. The project site selected, in accordance with the WSU Research and Education Complex (REC) master plan, is located on the WSU campus. The A-E will register the design for third-party certification using either the U.S. Green Building Council or Green Building Initiative.
