The selected Architect-Engineer firm will be responsible for utilizing Design Development documents to create a Request for Proposal (RFP) that outlines the project scope for a Design-Build construction contract. This project involves the stabilization of rail equipment and the removal of asbestos at the Steamtown National Historic Site in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Importantly, the Architect-Engineer firm tasked with preparing the RFP documents will be prohibited from participating in the subsequent Design-Build construction contract to avoid conflicts of interest. The contract is managed by the Department of the Interior’s Contracting Services Division based in Denver, Colorado. This is a presolicitation notice posted in June 2009 and does not specify set-aside requirements or NAICS code. The primary focus is on preparing detailed and accurate design documentation to facilitate the construction phase of the project, ensuring that the historic site’s stabilization and hazardous material removal are properly addressed in compliance with regulatory and preservation standards.
