NASA AMES Engineering and Mission Operations Facility Design-Build Services

all business, or Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned small business contractors capable of performing the construction services for the requirement described herein. If it is determined that adequate competition exists, the GSA may set the requirement aside for competition among the selected group; (2) Evaluate the potential use and impact of a Project Labor Agreement (PLA) in accordance with FAR Subpart 22.5 and Executive Order 14063, including potential effects on competition, pricing, and schedule. GSA PBS PQA is seeking all qualified and interested sources (both Large and Small businesses) to respond to this RFI to provide Design-Build Services for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Engineering and Mission Operations Facility (EMO) N278 to be constructed within the Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, CA. The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) are partnering to develop the Engineering and Mission Operations Facility (EMO) N278 to be constructed within the Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, CA. The scope for the new EMO includes: Existing Building and Site Demolition: As part of this Design-Build Contract, two existing buildings and a gas filling station will be demolished. The two existing buildings requiring demolition include the Motor Pool (Building N251) and the Machine Shop (Building N216). Two (2) existing Motor Pool Fuel Pumps with underground fuel tanks are located at the East Side of the site and will also require demolition. There will be an option for adaptive reuse of Building N216 instead of demolition. Building N278 Construction: This new facility has a minimum goal of 30,292 GSF that will co-locate several key program functions and include offices, meeting space, technical labs, and support space. Building N278 will be an important contribution towards realizing the goals of the �walkable campus� as outlined in the Center Master Plan for the NASA Ames Research Center, and will address NASA�s requirements to reduce the footprint and O&M costs while providing a healthy, safe, efficient, modern, flexible, and sustainable work environment. The site selected for this facility is owned by NASA and is located at the Southwest intersection of Warner Road and Mark Avenue on the Ames Research Center campus. The General Services Administration anticipates utilizing a Two-Phase Design-Build project delivery method in conjunction with the GSA�s Design Excellence and Construction Excellence Programs, designed to provide taxpayers with outstanding and cost-effective federal buildings. The contractor will be required to have the ability to successfully coordinate all of the design and trade/subcontractor work and complete this project within all applicable government guidelines. Location of Performance is: Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, CA 94035 Any resultant contract shall adhere to the GSA PBS Core Buildings Standards, Building Information Modeling (BIM). This office anticipates award of a contract for these services in Q3 of 2027. Contract duration is estimated to be (2) years (24 months).
