Executive Summary The District of Columbia Department of General Services (DGS or Department) is issuing this Request for Proposals to engage contractors to provide design-build services for eleven (11) playgrounds located in Washington, DC. These playgrounds will be installed at the following Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) sites: (i) Emery Recreation Center; (ii) Upshur Recreation Center; (iii) Brentwood Park; (iv) Benning Park Community Center; (v) Harry Thomas Sr. Recreation Center; (vi) Harrison Recreation Center; (vii) Douglass Community Center; (viii) Fort Stevens Recreation Center; (ix) Hamilton Recreation Center; (x) Newark Community Gardens; and (xi) Banneker Community Center. The scope of services is further outlined below and generally includes design-build services to install new playgrounds, and may generally include new tot lots and play equipment, and various other site improvements, based on existing conceptual designs (the “Project”). A.1. Project Delivery Method The Department plans to deliver this project through a design-build delivery method. Concept designs for each site have been completed and are included as Attachments A1-A11 (“Concept Design”) along with narrative scopes of work, aerial site images, and play equipment requirements for each site. DPR site amenity standards are also included as Attachment G. The selected Design-Builder will be required to complete the design and install all of the work necessary to complete the Project. The Design-Builder’s work will be divided into two phases: (i) the Preconstruction/Design Phase, and (ii) the Construction Phase. During the Preconstruction/Design Phase the Design-Builder shall prepare such drawings as may be required to describe the work and to obtain the necessary permits. Such drawings shall be submitted to the Department for its review and approval prior to proceeding with construction. During the Construction Phase, the Design-Builder will implement the approved drawings, providing all labor, materials, supervision and other services as may be necessary to accomplish this task. The Department reserves the right to award the work for each site to separate contractors, or to award the work for multiple sites to the same contractor. A.2 Form of Contract The Form of Contract will be issued by addendum. Offerors should carefully review the Form of Contract when submitting their proposal. To the extent there are any inconsistencies between this RFP and the Form of Contract, the Form of Contract shall prevail. Offerors are further advised that they are required to submit their proposal premised upon entering into a contract that is substantially similar to the Form of Contract and that any proposed changes to the Form of Contract must be clearly identified and described in their proposal. A proposal that fails to specifically identify and describe the requested changes shall be deemed non-responsive. Page 2 of 25
A.3 Lump Sum Price As will be more fully described in the Form of Contract, this will be a Lump Sum type contract. Offerors will be required to submit with their proposal a Lump Sum price for the work. The Lump Sum Fee shall include sufficient funds to cover all of the expenses necessary to complete the Project, including, but not limited to, profit, home and field office overhead, supervision, labor, materials, equipment, bonds, insurance and such professional services as may be required to complete the design and obtain the necessary permits. Offerors will be required to submit with their proposal an Offer Letter in substantially the form of Attachment B on the Offeror’s letterhead setting forth its Lump Sum price, as well as a preliminary schedule of values. Offerors will also be required to submit a schedule of values which breaks the Lump Sum price into the various elements that are shown in the conceptual design. In the event that the budget is inadequate to support all of the desired elements, the selected Design-Builder will be required to work with the Department to determine what improvements fit within the budget and what is most important to these stakeholders. A.4 Incentives for On-time; On-Budget Completion & Meeting Workforce Goals In the event the Project is both (i) substantially complete no later than the substantial completion dates identified herein and in the form of contract, and (ii) delivered for less than the Lump Sum established in the Contract, the Lump Sum shall be increased by Two Percent (2%). If these goals are not met, the Lump Sum will be reduced by Two Percent (2%). In addition, if the Design-Builder meets the Workforce Utilization Requirement discussed in Section A.5 below, the Lump Sum will be increased by One Half of One Percent (0.5%). In determining whether these goals have been met, the decision will be made irrespective of fault and regardless of whether the cause for failing to achieve these goals was within the Design-Builder’s control. A.5 Economic Inclusion The Department requires that Local, Small and Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (“LSDBEs”) participate in this project to the greatest extent possible and desires that such businesses perform at least fifty percent (50%) of the work under this procurement. At least thirty five percent (35%) must be awarded to entities that are certified as either Small or Disadvantaged Business Enterprises by the District of Columbia Local Business Opportunity Commission, and twenty percent (20%) to entities that are certified as Disadvantaged Business Enterprises. The Department will also require that the selected design-builder and all of its subconsultants, subcontractors, and suppliers, enter into a First Source Employment Agreement with the Department of Employment Services and hire fifty-one percent (51%) District residents for all new jobs created on the project. Please see Part C of this RFP for additional information. In addition to LSDBE participation as described above, the Department requires that District residents participate in the Project to the greatest extent possible. Prior to execution of the Contract, the Department will establish a minimum requirement for the percentage of labor hours Page 3 of 25
