About this file
This is a Seismic Form C Pre-award Commitment template used for federal lease proposals requiring seismic compliance documentation.
The form contains two distinct commitment sections. Part 1 addresses seismic retrofit of existing buildings, requiring the engineer in charge to affirm that the retrofit will meet the Basic Safety Objective as defined in ASCE/SEI 41 Seismic Rehabilitation of Existing Buildings. Offerors must provide a Tier 1 report with supporting documentation, a narrative detailing the renovation scope and schedule, and evidence prior to award demonstrating compliance with seismic standards and completion timelines. Part 2 covers new building construction, requiring the structural engineer to certify design and construction compliance with a specified building code edition, including documentation of quality assurance plans, special inspections, testing protocols, and periodic staff observations. Both sections require the engineer's signature, building characteristics (type, height, area, applicable code, design year, and construction year), and designation of lessor and government representatives. This template is specifically referenced in the Request for Lease Proposals (RLP) for GSA's Indianapolis warehouse space lease opportunity (Solicitation 3IN0249), which seeks 12,000 to 13,200 rentable square feet with a 15-year full term and 10-year firm term, requiring the space to meet government fire safety, accessibility, seismic, and sustainability standards.
