751/21086. JAN; Ludington SP - Replace Two T / S Buildings

The Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget (DTMB) is seeking professional architectural and engineering services to replace two toilet and shower buildings at Ludington State Park's Beechwood Campground. The project involves replacing front and back campground facilities, upgrading seven campsites to meet ADA requirements, and modifying the Department of Natural Resources' standard prototype toilet shower building design. Proposers must provide comprehensive services including schematic design, final design, and construction administration, with the project evaluated using an 80% technical and 20% cost scoring method. A mandatory pre-proposal meeting was held on April 16, 2021, with proposals due on April 29, 2021, at 2:00 pm through the SIGMA VSS system. The project timeline includes PSC contract award in May 2021, design from June-August 2021, bidding in September 2021, and construction from October 11, 2021, to May 2022. Respondents must coordinate with ongoing electrical service upgrades and adhere to specific DNR building standards, including heating requirements and utility coordination for well water, drainfields, and propane services.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Reimbursable expenses, including printing, soil borings, site surveys, and laboratory testing, are limited to a 5% markup, with travel expenses beyond 100 miles reimbursed at state rates. The construction budget is established at $1,463,000, with billing rates ranging from $35-100 per hour based on position classifications. Professional services providers must maintain comprehensive insurance coverage and submit detailed documentation throughout the project lifecycle. The project will require environmental abatement coordination, with the initial environmental report to be performed by the State of Michigan. Geotechnical and topographic information is available for the back site, with limited information for the front site, and additional surveys will be needed as part of the reimbursable expenses. The contract will be awarded on a not-to-exceed fee basis, with a traditional design/bid/build delivery method requiring 50% and 90% design submittals at each project phase.
