Description
TITLE: SLAC CUIR Master Substation Building Expansion Design-Build Sources Sought Notification
DESCRIPTION
This is a Sources Sought Notice to identify design-build contractors capable of completing the planned Master Substation Building Expansion work under Subproject 1 of the Critical Utilities Infrastructure Revitalization (CUIR) Project. This is not a solicitation for proposal or quotations and no award will be made from this Notice. SLAC intends to issue a formal solicitation later based on responses from this Source Sought Notice.
BACKGROUND
Many of SLAC’s utilities were installed in the 1960s as part of the original laboratory construction. These original utilities were not designed to support the experimental parameters needed for science research today and in the future. The purpose of the Critical Utilities Infrastructure Revitalization (CUIR) Project is to modernize utility infrastructure to provide reliable and sustainable operations, enabling SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC) to remain mission-ready and enhance the impact of Department of Energy (DOE) scientific programs.
CUIR is a project directly funded by the DOE's Office of Science. The project is organized into three subprojects to efficiently execute utility improvements in alignment with lab priorities and operational downtime schedules.
PLANNED SCOPE AND DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES
The Master Substation Building Expansion Design-Build scope consists of constructing a new two-story building next to the existing Master Substation Building (B016), installing new medium voltage switchgear, installing a new substation and relocating an existing generator. SLAC has acquired two new medium voltage switchgears as Government Furnished Property (GFP), which will be provided to the design-build contractor for installation to reduce risk associated with materials delivery delays and price fluctuations. A power outage may be required to complete the planned scope and has been identified and pre-negotiated.
DRAFT REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL
The Master Substation Building Expansion design-build scope has an estimated cost range of $5M to $13M. SLAC will use a Best Value Trade Off selection method to identify the most qualified design-build subcontractor. The draft Request for Proposal and relevant references are provided to present the general scope and acquisition method for the project. The draft documents provided are subject to change and should not be construed as a solicitation. This Sources Sought Notice is NOT A SOLICITATION, but instead is to identify interested vendors for the upcoming formal solicitation release.

Interested design-build contractors with the skills, capability, workload capability, and ability to obtain bonding to complete the planned project scope are invited to submit a written response to this Sources Sought Notice.
