Bid Recipient: Costello Construction

Description:

The Intent of this Invitation for Bid (IFB) is for the County of Loudoun, Virginia (County) to obtain the services of a qualified General Contractor to construct the New Loudoun County Court House. The New Loudoun County Courthouse project constructs an approximately 92,000 gross square two foot story courthouse with a lower level. The lowest level will be partially below grade and will be connected to the existing courthouse building by an underground pedestrian tunnel to be constructed under Church Street as part of the project. The three level portion of the building will be approximately 262 feet by 106 feet with a two story wing roughly 75 feet by 65 feet extending to the north. The lowest level of the wing will contain parking. The main elevator lobby and stairwell will be contained partially outboard of the main footprint in a feature extending to the south toward Edwards Ferry Road. The secure parking lot which is located along the north side of the courthouse will be enclosed with a masonry wall with security gates. Lighting and security cameras will be provided in this lot. Construction of the new courts facility will also require the demolition and removal of four existing houses and a large stone and brick retaining wall, the removal of the existing 112 space asphalt parking lot and the excavation and removal of two additional building foundations.

The costs associated with the removal of any and all unsuitable soils and/or rock encountered below subgrade (as defined in Specification 312000), during the construction of this project shall be borne by the County. The County requests that the Contractor provide unit prices for unsuitable soils removal and rock removal. Unit Prices shall include the import of suitable material as needed to replace those quantities removed (It shall be assumed that suitable material will be procured from an off-site source). Unit prices shall be included on the Pricing Page of the Bid, and shall be multiplied times an assumed quantity provided by the County for an extended price. The extended price shall be carried by the County as an Owner’s Allowance in the final Contract Price and will be paid to the Contractor on a “per occurrence” basis, with any remaining allowance(s) being returned to the County upon completion of the project. This will apply to all excavations with the only exception being Drilling Activities (i.e. borings, geothermal wells, etc.). In these specific instances the Contractor should assume that rock will be encountered and price the drilling accordingly as part of their Base Bid Cost. Refer to Specification 312000 for soil classification and responsibility for all unsuitable soils and/or rock encountered above subgrade.

Furthermore, the Contractor will be responsible for the removal of all vegetation as required by the Contract Documents, to include, haul-off and disposal. Excess top-soil and spoils shall be removed from the site. Hauling and disposal of these materials shall be included in this Contract. Should the Contractor require the import of suitable materials to maintain the elevations and grades shown on the Contract Documents, then the Contractor shall be responsible for the costs of the suitable materials, inclusive of hauling, placement, and compaction.

The Contractor shall be responsible for all surveying to ensure the project is installed per the Construction Documents. Any deviations from the Contract Documents shall be specifically requested via Request for Information (RFI) submitted to the Architect/Engineer of Record. All deviations shall be noted in the Contractor’s “Record Set” of Construction Documents. Upon completion of the Project, two (2) hard-copy sets, and one (1) digital copy of “Record Set” Construction Documents shall be provided to the County.

Lastly, the County will require the Contractor awarded this Project to use e-Builder Construction Program Management Software. The County will purchase two (2) licenses for the Contractor’s use and will provide training for the Contractor to ensure proficiency as recommended by e-Builder. The license and training will be provided to the Contractor at no cost and prior to the issuance of Notice to Proceed. Further training due to a lack of proficiency will be the responsibility of the Contractor.

The e-Builder Construction Program Management Software will be utilized for all Project management documentation and correspondence, including but not limited to: RFI’s, submittals, meeting minutes, pay applications, proposed change orders/change orders, close-out documentation, etc. Contact e-Builder for further information at www.e-builder.net or 1-800-580-9322.
