Simulated Nuclear and Radiological Activities Facility (SNRAF) in Oak Ridge, Tennessee

Introduction: Consolidated Nuclear Security, LLC, (CNS) is seeking interested parties to contract for the constructability review and construction/construction management of the Simulated Nuclear and Radiological Activities Facility (SNRAF). A design for the SNRAF currently exists, but a subsequent re-design significantly reducing the square footage will be awarded and started. CNS prefers one entity capable of performing all phases of the work including constructability reviews, development, management, construction, procurement, ES&H oversight and quality assurance. However, other contracting options will be considered. Interested parties are encouraged to reply to the expression of interest if you can provide one or more of these services. CNS will schedule an informational meeting via Webex to share further details, exchange information and answer questions. All interested parties are encouraged to participate in the informational meeting. CNS will use the information obtained from this Expression of Interest and the informational meeting to structure a Request for Proposal (RFP). Background The Y-12 National Security Complex is located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. It is a Department of Energy (DOE) National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) national security complex managed and operated by CNS. General Scope Description for Simulated Nuclear and Radiological Activities Facility Based on a conceptual design, the SNRAF will be an approximately 15,000 - 25,000 square foot building, with pre-engineered exterior & roof, containing bays, classrooms and minimal office space. In addition, the SNRAF contains administrative offices, building services (e.g., HVAC, lighting, PA system), shipping and receiving, utilities (e.g., electrical distribution systems, data & communications for augmented reality/virtual reality systems, emergency power equipment, firewater systems). Once operational, the SNRAF will replace an existing, operational facility at Y-12. Site prep and mass rough grading has been accomplished, as well as utility tie ins have been ran to the property line from the City of Oak Ridge Systems. The project site is not on Y-12, but is located on Hwy 58/Oak Ride Turnpike, across from the North entrance to the Horizons Center, 1.7 miles north of the Hwy 95 interchange. The SNRAF project will be executed using a Construction Manager at-Risk model. In this model the Construction Manager (CM) is hired early in the design phase and provides constructability services throughout the design phase. After completion of the constructability phase, the CM will prepare and submit a Firm Fixed Price proposal to execute the construction phase of the project. CNS will then negotiate directly with the CM and if negotiations are successful, the construction scope will be awarded to the CM. More information on this procurement, meetings, and informational sessions will be forthcoming. If you are interested in participating, provide your company's general qualifications, related experience and your envisioned role to Bryant Bales, bryant.bales@pxy12.doe.gov or 865-241-6163.
