Cornell University is seeking qualified consultants to design the rehabilitation of a 2,300-square-foot roof terrace located at the Plant Sciences building in Ithaca, NY. The project aims to address longstanding water infiltration issues, improve ventilation for the adjacent mechanical room, and evaluate the structural integrity of the existing concrete roof. The scope includes removing and replacing the current waterproofing and drainage systems, installing proper ventilation for the mechanical space, and potentially creating a separation between the mechanical room and the basement corridor as an add alternate. This work must be coordinated with ongoing renovations of the building’s mechanical systems and overall scope. The project is scheduled for completion by July 2027, with a phased approach encompassing schematic design, development, construction documents, bidding, and construction administration. Proposals must demonstrate relevant experience, including prior work on similar projects, and include detailed staffing plans, especially highlighting MWBE and SDVOB participation to meet state goals. The submission should also outline the consultant’s approach, organizational structure, and qualifications of key personnel. The contract, valued between $500,000 and $1.5 million, is open to firms across all NYS counties, with specific MWBE, WBE, and SDVOB participation goals. The deadline for submission is August 23, 2024, and proposals should be sent in PDF format, not exceeding 25 pages. The project requires careful coordination with Cornell’s broader renovation efforts and adherence to state diversity and inclusion policies.

SUCF# 161071 Rehabilitate Courtyard Roof Terrace - Plant Science Building  Request for Qualifications Cornell University is seeking qualifications from consultants to provide design services for the rehabilitation of a below-grade mechanical room roof terrace.  Project Description The project is located at the Plant Sciences building at 236 Tower Rd, City of Ithaca, NY 14853. The estimated 2,300 sq.-ft. roof of the below-grade mechanical room doubles as a terrace with the primary purpose of foot traffic circulation. This roof terrace has a history of significant water infiltration into the areas below leading to shorting of electrical equipment. The current structures in the roof (access panel, raised skylight with manual louvers, and mushroom fan) do not provide proper ventilation to the mechanical space which leads to overheating during warmer months. The existing concrete deck roof does not feature any seating or planting areas, however there are tree plantings directly adjacent to this area. The roof terrace does not currently feature any means of removing storm water other than surface sheet drainage to a neighboring intake structure. Except for local deterioration at the mushroom fan, there are no immediately evident structural concerns in the concrete roof structure. The goal of this project will be to (1) eliminate water infiltration and replace the existing roof and terrace (2) provide appropriate ventilation to the mechanical space below (3) address any structural concerns that may arise. The mechanical room is currently open to a basement level corridor. The creation of separation between the mechanical space and corridor may be considered as part of this project, as an add alternate, to create a fully comprehensive solution for intake and exhaust of the mechanical space. The Plant Science building is currently undergoing construction as part of the first phase of a multi-phase renovation with scope in the mechanical room. This project, the rehabilitation of the roof terrace, will need to be coordinated with the greater renovation of the Plant Science building.  Scope of Services The services indicated below shall include, but not be limited to: Removal and replacement of existing roof terrace and associated waterproofing and drainage Creation of proper air intake and exhaust Correction of water infiltration throughout the roof system, including the roof structures Evaluation of any possible degradation of the roof structure and any necessary corrective measures The successful consultant will receive an RFP which will describe the following phases of work: Schematic Design Phase Design Development Phase Construction Document Phase Bidding Phase Construction Administration Phase Minority- and Women-Owned Business Enterprise (MWBE) Participation Pursuant to New York State Executive Law Article 15-A, Cornell University is committed to promoting opportunities for maximum feasible participation of certified MWBE firms and the employment of minority group members and women in the performance of Cornell contracts.  Consultants are required to ensure that good faith efforts are made to include meaningful participation.
