AI Contract Overview

This contract modification pertains to an increase in the guaranteed maximum price (GMP) by $1,114,216 for a firm, fixed-price contract originally awarded under solicitation number GS-04P-09-EX-C-0077. The contract supports the modernization of the Robert Smith Vance Federal Building and U.S. Courthouse in Birmingham, Alabama, as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, which aims to stimulate job creation and economic recovery. The modernization efforts focus on reducing energy consumption, enhancing environmental performance, improving stormwater management, and promoting occupant health and productivity, while maintaining affordability over the long term. Because the design was not finalized when the original contract was awarded, this GMP contract allows for adjustments as the design and scope evolve, necessitating this increase in funds to cover expanded modernization requirements. The General Services Administration (GSA), through its Acquisition Management Division in Atlanta, Georgia, oversees this contract, with Christopher D. Banks serving as the point of contact. The initial contract flexibility was intended to accommodate uncertainties and refinements during the design phase. The increased GMP reflects necessary changes to the scope of work to fully support the building’s planned modernization. This type of contract reinforces ongoing negotiation and adaptation to design advancements, ensuring the project can meet its key goals of sustainability, efficiency, and economic impact within the framework of ARRA funding and federal procurement regulations.

Full Description

RECOVERY - PER FAR 5.7 THIS NOTICE IS PROVIDED FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY THEREFORE FAR 5.203 DOES NOT APPLY. THIS OPPORTUNITY IS AVAILABLE ONLY TO THE CONTRACTOR UNDER THE CURRENT CONTRACT NUMBER GS-04P-09-EX-C-0077. This modification is to increase ARRA funding on the firm, fixed-price Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) contract in the amount of $1,114,216. This Contract Award was posted to FBO on July 28, 2009. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 was created to preserve and create jobs and promote economic recovery. The Robert Smith Vance Federal Building and U. S. Courthouse has been selected in support of this Recovery Plan. The Modernization of the Robert Smith Vance Federal Building seeks to lower energy usage, improve environmental performance, increase on-site storm water management, improve indoor environmental quality, occupant health and productivity, maximize energy efficiency and cost savings while strengthening the local economy and keeping this building affordable in the long term. In an effort to achieve these goals, the original GMP solicitation strived to anticipate and accommodate all aspects of the Modernization efforts. The award was designed to permit ongoing discussions and negotiations throughout the development of the design and specifications. Inherent in this type of contract are numerous uncertainties that do not permit costs to be estimated with sufficient accuracy. At the time of solicitation and award, the design had not yet commenced. The award of a GMP contract, without a design in place, was anticipated to be adjusted to reflect conditions that may occur after refinement of the design. Such a living award document is necessary during the refinement of the scope of work. It has now been determined that the Statement of Work requires further development in obtaining the modernization of the Robert Smith Vance FB & CH. Consequently, the scope is hereby increased to support the Modernization efforts and an increase in the GMP is a fundamental component of this undertaking. As such, the GMP is hereby modified in the amount of $1,114,216.00.
