The Government's obligation under this contract is contingent upon the availability of appropriated funds from which payment for contract purposes can be made.

(End of clause) Through the modernization of a federal building, this project continues the legacy of outstanding public architecture. In accordance with this tradition, the General Services Administration (GSA) Design Excellence Program seeks to commission our nation's most talented designers and engineers to prepare our federal buildings utilizing outstanding quality and value. These projects are to demonstrate the value of true integrated design that balances aesthetics, cost, constructability, and reliability; creates environmentally responsible and superior workplaces for civilian federal employees; and gives public expression to our democratic values. In this context, GSA announces an opportunity for Design Excellence in public architecture for performance of architectural/engineering (A/E) design in accordance with GSA quality standards and requirements. As required by law, all facilities will meet federal energy goals and security requirements. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The subject building located at 985 Michigan Avenue, in Detroit, Michigan, was constructed in 1995 as a build-to-suit lease location for the Internal Revenue Service. U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) has executed a purchase option, with transfer of ownership scheduled for April 2015. The office building is 10-stories above grade with a basement. The majority of the mechanical equipment is housed in a 3-story structure adjacent to the building. The building has a 10-story parking garage with approximately 850 spaces. The asset is 20 years old and many systems are approaching the end of their useful lives and are inefficient. Upgrades to the building's infrastructure are required to extend the asset's service life, reduce energy consumption and operating expenses, and ensure long-term occupancy of federal tenants. GSA proposes to renovate the 985 Michigan Avenue building to extend the asset's useful life and consolidate federal agencies in Detroit, MI. Renovation of the building systems includes energy savings improvements to the HVAC systems, repairs to the passenger and freight elevators, replacement of the roof, repairs to the building's windows and façade, replacement of the fire alarm and sprinkler systems, repairs to the plumbing system and public restrooms, improvements to the electrical infrastructure, and repairs to the parking garage and site. The project will also reconfigure space for federal agencies currently housed at this location and backfill the remaining space with other federal agencies located in leased space. GSA anticipates using a CMc delivery method for construction of this design. SCOPE OF WORK The scope of professional services will require at a minimum: professional architectural, engineering, interior design, and related consulting services for concept design documents, design development documents, construction documents, specifications, cost estimates, value engineering services, computer-aided design and drafting (CADD), and post-construction contract services (PCCS) for the modernization and alteration of this 20 year old facility. The project is also to include GSA design standards for secure facilities; conformance to the P-100 (Facility Standards for Public Buildings) and customer agency requirements. The project will be designed in one package incorporating the entire scope. The construction may be accomplished utilizing phasing to coincide with the requirements of the impacted federal agencies.

Updating information in the SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document. (2) (i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, "doing business as" name, or division name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in Subpart 42.12, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention to: (A) Change the name in the SAM database; (B) Comply with the requirements of Subpart 42.12 of the FAR; (C) Agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer.

(iii) Any such clause is deemed to be stricken from the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement. (2) Paragraph (u)(1) of this clause does not apply to indemnification by the Government that is expressly authorized by statute and specifically authorized under applicable agency regulations and procedures. (v) Incorporation by reference. The Contractor's representations and certifications, including those completed electronically via the System for Award Management (SAM), are incorporated by reference into the contract. Addendum to FAR 52.212-4. Any addendum to FAR 52.212-4 should be clearly labeled as such and shall include the following information, as appropriate: (i) If the contracting officer tailors FAR 52.212-4 in accordance with FAR 12.302, the tailored parts of the clause shall be stated in the addendum. (ii) If the contracting officer specifies commercial contract financing terms, the information required by FAR 32.206(b)(1) shall be included in the addendum. (iii) When cost information will be obtained pursuant to FAR part 15 to establish the reasonableness of prices for commercial items, the contracting officer shall insert the clauses prescribed for this purpose in the addendum. (iv) The contracting officer may include in solicitations and contracts by addendum to FAR 52.212-4 other FAR clauses when their use is consistent with the limitations contained in FAR 12.302. For example: (A) The contracting officer may include appropriate clauses when an indefinite-delivery type of contract will be used. The clauses prescribed at FAR 16.506 may be used for this purpose.
