I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

I.A. Background

GSA has contracted with a separate architect-engineer (A/E) firm that is responsible for developing complete design and construction documents for the Project. A copy of the A/E’s scope of work is included as an attachment to the Appendix. In addition, GSA has contracted with a separate Construction Management Advisor (CMa) firm to provide certain services during the design and construction phases of the Project. A copy of the CMa’s scope of work is also included as an attachment to the Appendix. GSA has issued a separate contract for Commissioning Authority (CxA). A copy of the CxA’s scope of work is also included as an attachment to the Appendix. GSA may issue additional separate contracts for other consultants as may be reasonably necessary to complete the Project.

I.B. Purpose

As noted in the Contract Documents, the CMc’s tasks are primarily separated into two distinct phases: (1) Design Phase Services; and (2) Construction Phase Work. This Statement of Work (SOW) outlines additional services not otherwise provided for in the Contract Documents and/or Acquisition Documents that the Contractor shall perform during the Design Phase Services and Construction Phase Services portions of the Project.

Unless otherwise stated herein, capitalized terms have the same meaning as set forth in the Contract Documents.

As a general matter, the CMc shall review and become familiar with the scope of services under the A/E’s contract, especially the various standards, guidelines, policies, and documents that the A/E is required to follow in developing the design and construction documents. This review and familiarization is vitally important during the Design Phase Services because, as set forth in more detail below, the main tasks of the CMc Contractor during the Design Phase Services are to provide constructability and cost estimation reviews of the A/E’s design-related submissions.

At its core, the CMc Contractor will help to ensure that the design and construction documents will enable the Government to exercise the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) Option at a price that is at or below the GMP.

All reviews and comments during the design phase will be provided using Dr. Checks.

II. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

Not Used

III.A. SCOPE OF DESIGN PHASE SERVICES

III.A.1. Design Stages in General

The A/E’s contract requires the A/E to follow the design process as set forth in the Facilities Standards for the Public Buildings Service (P-100). The P-100 describes two overarching design phases: (1) Design Development (DD); and (2) and Construction Documents (CDs). At

Contract Number [xxx] Page 5 of 17 the time of contract award to the CMc Contractor, the Government provided certain design and project related documents as part of the competition in order to, among others, award a firm-fixed-price base contract for the Design Phase Services and to establish pricing for the GMP Option. As a matter of policy, the Contracting Officer will not exercise the GMP Option until the Construction Documents are at least 75% complete. The Design Phase Services portion of the project provides the opportunity for the CMc Contractor to maximize its understanding of the design requirements, the design intent, and the technical requirements of the Project.

III.A.2. Collaboration with the A/E

During the Design Phase Services, the A/E and the CMc collaborate on the design, constructability issues, schedule, cost, and a process that is similar to value engineering. The ultimate goal of this collaboration is to establish a final Estimated Cost of Work that does not exceed the original target ECW (as set forth in the Contractor’s proposal). The CMc's involvement during the project design phase offers PBS the ability to identify current market conditions concerning labor and material availability, constructability issues, and any phasing and sequencing impacts.

Ideally, the A/E and its subcontractors will communicate freely with the CMc and its trade subcontractors, and vice versa. This will ensure mutual understanding of both the A/E's design intent and the CMc's means and methods, and thus ensure greater certainty in pricing the construction work. It also increases the likelihood that design errors and omissions are recognized and resolved during design. In addition, this collaboration takes place during a time that does not significantly impact the construction schedule and that can result in expedited production and review of shop drawings once construction commences.

III.A.3. Meetings

At a minimum, the CMc shall attend all of the meetings listed in this section. For each meeting, the CMc shall determine the appropriate mix of attendees based on the subject matter. Unless otherwise noted, all meetings shall be held in-person at the project site.

III.A.3.a. Project Initiation Meeting (Virtual)

The CMc shall attend an initial meeting with other members of the project team (the A/E, GSA, construction manager [CMa], and customer agency) to review the project’s program, status of design, discuss goals, begin initial project planning, and agree to the schedule for regularly scheduled Project Meetings.

III.A.3.b. Risk Management Workshops (Virtual)

The CMc shall participate in workshops with the Government, A/E, and other stakeholders to create, update, or modify a Risk Registry using the Construction Industry Institute’s Project Definition Rating Index (PDRI) (or a different industry standard as agreed to by the Contracting Officer) to assess risks and opportunities for the project. The first PDRI evaluation session that the CMc will attend will typically occur around the Design Development completion stage. The final PDRI session that the CMc will attend will typically occur at the completion of design and prior to the exercise of the Construction Option.

Contract Number [xxx] Page 6 of 17

With each deliverable from the CMc (see Section III.A.11.), the parties will discuss whether the Risk Registry needs to be modified based on the then-current state of the project.

III.A.3.c. Program Review Meetings (Virtual)

The CMc shall attend program review meeting before the start of the Construction Documents Phase.

III.A.4. Design Submission Reviews (Virtual)

The CMc team shall attend program review meetings after the submission of each report required in Section III.A.11. The CMc shall include in the meeting any major trade subcontractors, vendors, or suppliers used in preparing the submission. The purpose of including these major trade subcontractors, vendors, or suppliers is to provide increased opportunities to identify and resolve any design, construction, or pricing related issues in the pre-construction phase of the project.

III.A.5. Building Information Modeling (BIM)

The Contractor shall provide at a minimum, experienced and certified personnel in both BIM modelling and COBie management to support the GSA 3D/4D Building-Information-Modeling (BIM) and COBie effort to ensure that project related materials and models are developed to comply with the BIM requirements specified in P-100 GSA BIM Guides 02, 07, 08, and Project Specifications and Narratives.

The Contractor shall submit BIM deliverables in native and IFC file formats for all project phases.

The Contractor shall review and be familiar with the BIM Guide Series, available at www.gsa.gov/bim, which provides additional information and requirements for specific BIM applications. At a minimum, the Contractor shall comply with BIM Guides 02, 07, and 08.

Additional BIM Guides provide useful information and guidance for optional BIM applications.

• BIM Guide 02 - Spatial Program Validation defines how BIM is used to design for and validate spatial program requirements for GSA properties.

• BIM Guide 07 - Building Elements provides requirements for BIM-based design and for BIM Execution Planning.

• BIM Guide 08 - Facility Management provides requirements for GSA’s use of BIM for facility management.

III.A.6. Consultation, Progress Meetings, and Presentations

The CMc shall attend design review meetings, progress meetings, and presentations held at the project site or virtually, as required.

III.A.7. Systems Selections Analysis Meetings and Mockups http://www.gsa.gov/bim

Contract Number [xxx] Page 7 of 17

The CMc shall participate in systems selections analysis meetings, including the inspection and evaluation of mockups.

III.A.8. Value Management (In Person)

The CMc concept has value management as one of its main objectives. During the Design Phase Services, the CMc Contractor shall lead the value management efforts. The CMc shall participate and provide professional experts in all disciplines for a two day value management workshop that will be held during the design stage. The A/E, CMa, GSA staff, and other government stakeholders will also participate in the workshop.

III.A.9. Historic Consultation Meetings (Virtual/In Person)

The National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) requires Federal agencies to consider the effects of their undertakings on historic resources and to consult with the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO). If there should be any potential adverse effects, GSA will consult with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) and the SHPO on ways to avoid or mitigate adverse effects. The CMc shall participate in all monthly historic consultation meetings.

III.A.10. Partnering (In Person)

To most effectively accomplish this contract, the Government requires that the CMc and its subcontractors participate in a cohesive partnership with the Government. Key personnel from the Government, CMc, its subcontractors, and the A/E will participate in the partnering process.

The CMc shall provide the Contracting Officer with a list of the key personnel from the CMc and its subcontractors who will participate in the partnering sessions. The Contracting Officer may, in his/her sole discretion, add or remove any individual from the list.

For additional information, see Partnering with the Public Building Service Policy, PBS 3400.16A, dated March 5, 2014.

III.A.11. Deliverables

III.A.11.a. General

The CMc will provide a written deliverable based on the A/E’s design-related submissions for each of the following design milestones (these milestones are further explained in the P-100):

1. Final Design Development Documents;

2. 75% Construction Documents; and

3. 90% Construction Documents.

Each written deliverable from the CMc is due to the Contracting Officer within 30 days from the CMc Contractor’s receipt of the A/E’s design-related submission.

III.A.11.b. Required Deliverables

Contract Number [xxx] Page 8 of 17

For each design submission from the A/E, the CMc shall provide an independent cost estimate and a written report that separately addresses each of the following topics (which are explained in more detail below):

● Constructability Review;

● Cost Estimating, Reconciliation, and Proposed Alternatives;

● Schedule Analysis;

● Construction Work Phasing and Sequencing Plan;

● Early Work Package Suggestions; and

● Risk.

For each submission, as a general matter, the CMc shall notify the Contracting Officer of errors, omissions, inconsistencies, or other issues that may potentially impact the project goals, the ECW, schedule, design quality, or project scope.

III.A.11.c. Identification of the CMc Team

Each report shall include a section that: (1) names each major trade subcontractor, vendor, or supplier that the CMc used or relied on in preparing the submission; (2) provides a brief description of the services provided by such company; and (3) the work that the company might perform on the project (if ultimately selected by the CMc). As noted above, representatives of these companies must attend the post-submission meetings with the Government.

III.A.11.d. Constructability Review

The CMc shall review the design submissions with reasonable care and advise the Contracting Officer in writing of any errors, inconsistencies, inaccuracies, or incompleteness which may negatively impact cost, schedule, or quality. The CMc shall provide recommendations on constructability; improving life cycle costs; sustainability; systems analysis; functionality;

enhancing operational flexibility; and minimizing labor or material shortages. The CMc shall also review the submissions for accuracy, completeness, sequencing, and coordination.

III.A.11.e. Cost Estimating, Reconciliation, and Proposed Alternatives (CERPA)

The CMc is tasked with reviewing the design documents and providing estimates in the same format required by the PBS P-120, Project Estimating Requirements for the Public Buildings Service. As a general matter, the P-100 requires the A/E to prepare cost estimates at certain stages of design. See Appendix A. Thus, the purpose of the CERPA portion of the report is for the Government to have the benefit of two, separate estimates at each major design stage: one from the A/E and one from the CMc.

The deliverable from the CMc shall: (1) be performed in the same level and detail as set forth in the P-100, Appendix A; (2) comply with the Cost Management Matrix found at Table A-1; and

(3) comply with the cost-estimating requirements for capital construction projects as set forth in the P-120.

The Government will reconcile the CMc estimate with other estimates to ensure that the project being designed will be constructible within the project's budget and is consistent with the established GMP. The reconciliation will not only focus on the total GMP, but will also take into

Contract Number [xxx] Page 9 of 17 account the major cost elements that make-up the total GMP (e.g., structural, MEP, exterior, general conditions, etc.). Large discrepancies or variances in the estimates (whether in whole or in part) should be reconciled prior to exercising the GMP Option.

If the design (or its major cost elements) appears to exceed the ECW, the CMc shall propose alternatives that will deliver the project at or below the GMP Option. The CMc and its major trade subcontractors, vendors, or suppliers shall participate in reconciliation meetings.

III.A.11.f. Preliminary Project Schedule and Analysis

Provide a detailed, time-scaled computer generated project schedule with activities representing each portion of the work for the entire contract performance period. The project schedule shall be prepared using the Critical Path Method (CPM) for the planning, scheduling and reporting of the work to be performed, and will be produced using the most current version of scheduling software, compatible with the GSA web-based electronic Project Management (PMS) system.

The CPM scheduling software shall be capable of generating and depicting the longest path of the schedule network. Schedule activities shall accurately depict the contractor’s means and methods to complete the entire scope of work including, but not limited to, activities of subcontractors, consultants, equipment vendors and suppliers, GSA, and others, as required.

III.A.11.g. Construction Work Sequencing and Phasing Plan

The CMc shall submit a construction work allocation plan addressing all of the following topic areas.

● Construction phasing approach;

● Use of any fast tracking or multiple construction document packages to achieve cost or schedule efficiencies, improvements, or savings;

● Schedules for award of subcontract construction packages, including procurement cycles, deliverable approvals, construction delivery and testing/commissioning;

● Temporary or swing space moves, including all aspects of tenant relocation(s)

(telecommunications, furniture relocations, etc.);

● Temporary facilities and laydown areas;

● Possible labor or material shortages;

● Means and methods; and,

● Long-lead items.

III.A.11.h. Early Work Packages

During the design of the project, the CMc and the Government may agree that it is in the best interest of the project to initiate early construction packages. These early work packages can be individual GMP line items or firm fixed price line items. Early construction packages should be for standalone, severable scopes.

III.A.11.i. Modifications to the Risk Registry

The CMc shall provide recommendations for modifying the Risk Registry based on the design submissions. The project shall use the Construction Industry Institute’s IR280-2 Risk Register -dated 2013 for their deliverable.
