The General Services Administration (GSA) hereby notifies of the intent to procure for the Design/Build contract for the Truck Screening Facility Renovation for the Consolidation of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) at the St. Elizabeths Hospital site in Anacostia, DC. The scope will include design/build efforts from approximately 65% bridging documents and construction management for the Truck Screening Facility Renovation. The St Elizabeths site is approximately 176 acres and is a National Historic Landmark (NHL) site containing primarily office space and parking structures with some special buildings for conferences and food service. The site, located one mile east of DC on Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue, SE, is the former St. Elizabeths Hospital site in Anacostia, Washington, DC. Three phases are planned in total, with a phasing summary as follows: Phase 1 - new construction for the U.S. Coast Guard Headquarters (USCG) (1,179,500 gsf) [awarded September 2009] Adaptive reuse of historic buildings for DHS at 179,250 gsf; Phase 2 - The Center Building for DHS, Central Utility Plant and DHS Operations Center, a mix of new construction and adaptive reuse projects along with FEMA Headquarters at 1.7 million gsf and Phase 3 - a combination adaptive reuse and new construction for Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and DHS (1,398,150 gsf). The Department of Homeland Security Headquarters Gate 6 Truck Screening Facility Renovation project at St. Elizabeths is a follow-up project to work completed during Phase 1 development of the campus. The Phase 1 Gate 6 Truck Screening Facility was constructed to support the St. Elizabeths Campus deliveries. This new renovation project will incorporate changes to the routing and procedure at the current Gate 6 Truck Screening Facility to take on its current duties as well as transferring duties from another location. This facility will need to take on more vehicles than originally planned as well on vehicles being able to exit the facility directly after being screened in order to make deliveries to other Government sites. These changes include and are not limited to, new license plate readers, guard booths, street lights, electrical/mechanical upgrades, security conduit and various road changes and additions.

Qualification proposals will be evaluated in Phase 1 to determine which offerors will submit proposals for Phase 2. One contract will be awarded using competitive negotiation.
