C--INDE-236306/310912/310913, DD/CD Services to Repai

This contract, solicitation number 140P2020R0151, covers design development and construction document services for critical infrastructure repairs at the Independence National Historical Park in Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. Managed by the Department of the Interior's DSC Contracting Services Division, the project encompasses three primary scopes of work: replacing critical components for chillers number one and two, replacing failing chiller number three and cooling tower number three at the Central Chilled Water Plant, and replacing two additional failing cooling towers at the same facility. The agency has issued a notice of intent to negotiate a sole-source award to EYP, Inc. for these architect-engineer design services. This procurement action is being conducted under FAR 6.302-1 authority because EYP, Inc. serves as the designer of record. The government has determined that engaging a different firm for these services would result in substantial delays and increased costs to the project.
