The majority (approximately 80%) of task orders issued under these IDIQ contracts are anticipated to have an estimated cost of construction at award (ECCA) of $250,000 or less. These task orders will require limited scope engineering and architectural services with defined deliverables and performance periods of 120 calendar days or less. Some task orders may require a full range of engineering and architectural services with extended budgets and/or performance periods; however, project ECCAs over the current prospectus project threshold are not anticipated. In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 15.404-4(c)(4)(i)(B), fees for design services cannot exceed 6% of the ECCA. For general guidance describing included and excluded services, in regards to the 6% fee limitation, see the attached document. The purpose of this Solicitation and subsequent contracts is to engage teams capable of performing design services that are consistent with the guiding principles of GSA's Design Excellence program for a variety of project types. Assembled teams should be well rounded and clearly identify relevant concentrated areas of expertise, if applicable.
