  • Form A: Certificate of Seismic Compliance for Benchmark Buildings.
  • Form B: Certificate of Seismic Compliance for Existing Buildings.
  • Form C: Commitment for Building Retrofit or New Construction.
  • Form D: Offeror's Representation of Exemption from Seismic Standards.

Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document, "Exhibit D - Security Unit Price List FSL II.xlsx", is a pricing sheet intended for Lessors to quote unit prices on security countermeasures identified in a lease. It serves to estimate the Building Specific Amortized Capital (BSAC) amount, which represents potential countermeasures. The actual BSAC amount will be finalized after the design phase.

• Unit Prices & Quantities: Lessors are to input unit prices and quantities for BSAC items (highlighted in light blue). The spreadsheet will automatically calculate the total for each row.
• Non-Priced Items: Items designated as 'Priced in Shell', 'Priced in Tenant Improvements', or 'Government Provided' are included for alignment with 'Security Standards' but should not be priced on this document. Costs for 'Priced in Shell' and 'Priced in Tenant Improvements' should be detailed on a separate 'TICS' form if provided.
• Categories: The pricing sheet is organized into sections covering Facility Entrances, Lobby, Common Areas, Non-Public and Utility Areas; Interior (Government Space); Sites and Exterior of the Building; Security Systems; Structure; and Operations and Administration.
• BSAC Calculation: The total BSAC costs calculated at the bottom of the worksheet are to be transferred to the TICS form for overhead fee calculations.

While this document is primarily for Lessor use post-award to define security countermeasure costs, it provides insight into the types of security requirements and potential capital expenditures associated with the lease. Bidders should note the categories of security measures and understand that specific costs for BSAC items will be negotiated. The distinction between Lessor-provided (BSAC), Government-provided, and items priced in Shell or Tenant Improvements is crucial for understanding cost allocation within the overall lease agreement.
