Contractors must operate within an active, historic campus, necessitating strict mitigation of sound and vibration to protect animals and close coordination with zoo feeding and veterinary schedules. Key requirements include compliance with LEED building criteria, the use of Building Information Modeling (BIM), and adherence to the Davis-Bacon Act for prevailing wages. Additionally, the contract mandates a minimum 40 percent subcontracting goal for small business concerns and a 12 percent self-performance requirement. Award will be determined using Best Value Tradeoff Source Selection Procedures, where non-price technical factors are significantly more important than cost. Technical proposals will be evaluated based on the contractor's ability to provide construction services, key personnel qualifications, cost control, scheduling, and quality assurance.
