CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT AT-RISK SERVICES FOR METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT 7TH DISTRICT NEW HEADQUARTERS AND PARKING FACILITY

The District of Columbia (“District”) Department of General Services (the “Department” or “DGS”), on behalf of the Metropolitan Police Department (“MPD”), is issuing this Request for Proposals (“RFP”) to engage a contractor to serve as the Construction Manager at Risk (the “CMAR” or the “Contractor”) for the construction of the new MPD 7 ^th District Headquarters and Parking Structure, located at 2455 Alabama Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20020 (the “Project”).

The existing MPD 7 ^th District facility is located at 2455 Alabama Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20020. The 7 ^th District covers much of the Southeast quadrant of the city, including the neighborhoods of Anacostia, Barry Farm, Naylor Gardens, and Washington Highlands. The District is home to such notable landmarks as Fort Stanton Park, the Frederick Douglas Home, and Boling Air Force Base. Over the course of the last decade, MPD has added the largest number of employees to the 7 ^th District to address the calls for service and community policing efforts. The current facility has been remodeled several times over the course of the last decade to address the additional staffing and unit configurations that are deployed out of the 7th District. Beyond the size constraints, the building’s mechanical, engineering, and plumbing (“MEP”) systems are beyond the end of the life cycle’s usefulness and the roofing system/exterior envelope needs to be replaced. The Project involves the design and construction of a new facility above the existing parking lot, north of the existing facility.

The Contractor will be required to provide a full range of services required to construct a new facility to meet the Department’s programmatic requirements and demolish the existing facility. All Project documents prepared to date by the Architect/Engineer (“A/E”) are included as Attachment A and Attachment X. Any synthetic surfaces installed for the outdoor amenities must be accompanied by a certificate of compliance with regulatory standards for all existing public synthetic surfaces, as required by D.C. Code § 10-171.03.

The Department contracted Shinberg Levinas as the A/E for the Project and has started the design process. The Contractor selected pursuant to this RFP shall provide design feedback and other preconstruction services prior to permitting. The Department expects that as the permit documents are completed by the A/E, the Contractor will obtain quotes from the trade subcontractors and provide a Guaranteed Maximum Price (“GMP”).
