About this opportunity
The Department of the Treasury Bureau of the Fiscal Service, acting on behalf of the Armed Forces Retirement Home in Washington, D.C., intends to procure architect and engineering (A&E) services through a Blanket Purchase Agreement. The services will encompass comprehensive design work for a continuing care retirement community, including feasibility studies, concept design, construction cost estimates, field engineering investigations, new building and renovation work, construction management, and design/build bridging documents. Interested vendors must submit responses by January 13, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. ET, providing company details, business size classification, contract vehicle information, and a 5-page capabilities statement demonstrating their ability to provide equivalent services. The evaluation criteria will focus on vendors' capability to continue the existing A&E design services, with a specific emphasis on multi-disciplined architectural and engineering expertise. If no vendor can clearly demonstrate the ability to meet all salient requirements, the government will proceed with a sole source award to the incumbent contractor.
The procurement is not set aside for any specific business type and will be evaluated under NAICS code 238210 with a size standard of $19 million. The incumbent contractor is AE Works Ltd, who currently holds BPA number 20342320A00001 and is expected to receive the sole source award if no equivalent vendors are identified. The contract will have a base period of 12 months with three additional 12-month option periods, initially planned to begin on April 1, 2025 (amended from the original May 1, 2025 start date). Key personnel requirements include an architect with experience leading at least three senior/retirement community construction projects in the past decade and professionals experienced in historic building renovations. The scope requires comprehensive design services across multiple disciplines, including interior, civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, IT, geotechnical, food service, and landscaping design.
