Building Design and Construction Services

The buyer, a government authority located in Buffalo, NY, requires building design and construction services for a new five-story, slab-on-grade research building with a mechanical penthouse. The facility must feature flexible laboratories, specialized research spaces, offices, workspaces, conference rooms, collaboration areas, and specialized infrastructure including laboratory gas, RO/DI water, and high-efficiency exhaust systems. Design services will proceed for the entire project, and the consultant must conduct an embedded program study and evaluate geothermal energy integration. The project supports basic, translational, clinical, and computational research programs in artificial intelligence in medicine, advanced therapeutics, healthy aging, neuroscience, pain, and cardiovascular and kidney diseases. Eligible vendors must operate onshore within the USA, and the work requires onsite performance. The contract period lasts for one year. The buyer requests proposals to determine the budget, but the text provides no evaluation criteria or key-date details.
