Appendix D: Scope of Work
1. Master Plan: The Department of Military & Veterans Affairs (DMVA) is requesting an Architect/Engineer/Consultant (A/E/C) to prepare a Master Plan for the Colorado Army National Guard (COARNG) property located at 6848 S. Revere Parkway, Centennial, CO 80112 in Arapahoe County. This Master Plan will identify the maximum requirements and ultimate development capacity that can be contained within the existing site. The intent of this Master Plan is to create long-term development visions and strategies for property use and the requirements of the State of Colorado and Colorado Army National Guard (COARNG) in the context of most effective and efficient use of the property. The existing site is 15.78 developed acres total with 7.97 undeveloped acres in size. The 43 year old JFHQ-CO site includes an existing 42,000 square foot (SF) Administration Building, 19,451 SF Readiness Center, 28,932 SF Administrative Building with State Leadership, 1,018 SF Mail Room, and two security buildings with associated paving, fencing, lighting and landscaping. A minimum of three (3) separate site development options will be devised through design charrettes with stakeholders. These options shall be produced to show the area at an appropriate scale to show sufficient detail including site location, building footprints, orientation to roads, location of parking, access roads, pedestrian access, pedestrian and service access points, and proposed future projects.
A single option will be chosen to further develop into the overall plan. Sizing of facilities to be planned will be determined through requirement analysis of the existing and the proposed stationing of the units/functions at the site with detailed square feet calculations provided by DMVA G9 Planning and Programming team. The approved criteria source for space allowances is in accordance with National Guard Pamphlets (NGPAM) 415-12 (Jan 2015), DA Pam 405-70, and the applicable Uniform Facilities Criteria (UFC).
The A/E/C will coordinate with the users and the owner throughout the development of this project. The designer shall generate meeting minutes for all design meetings/reviews.
Issues identified during design meetings/reviews shall be tracked until they are resolved.
The A/E/C will provide digitized products at each level of design and scanned copies of hand-drawn products.
We anticipate this project will require the following design disciplines at minimum: Area Development Planning, Architectural, Landscape, and Civil.
2. SERVICES TO BE RENDERED BY THE ARCHITECT/ENGINEER: The A/E shall furnish all labor and materials necessary to produce the elements listed below. The following provides a breakdown of these requirements.
a. Objectives: The responsibilities and procedures relating to the development, content and submission of the JFHQ-CO Master Plan are to:
1) Develop the foundation for real property management and development;
and reflect the goals, objectives, plans and real property requirements of the units and organizations assigned to the site and Military facilities at JFHQ-CO, CO.
2) Develop a Master Planning framework that assists management in making decisions regarding efficient acquisition, utilization, and disposal of real property assets; and, in addition, facilitating the identification of requirements and alternatives for resolving real property deficiencies and excesses; and
3) Provide for the strategic capability for ensuring installation sustainability into the future through direct support of mission readiness and installation integration into Master Planning.
b. Purpose: The purpose of the JFHQ-CO Master Plan is to:
1) Develop a vision and future direction for efficiently managing, acquiring, or reducing real property at the JFHQ-CO Site that supports the current mission, transformation, and management processes;
2) Develop mission-oriented facilities which provides flexibility to react effectively to contingencies; and provide Soldiers, their families, and other users with high quality facilities;
3) Develop a framework for State management to review allocation of limited resources that affect, or are affected by, the use of real property assets; determine real property deficiencies; and identify priorities and potential solutions;
4) Coordinate overall complex site development planning activities/decisions with military and State of Colorado requirements;
5) Identify sustainability issues, activities, and actions that may have significant environmental impacts; and minimize turbulence in resource planning;
6) Ensure that the JFHQ-CO site is capable of supporting assigned missions, as well as providing locations or land areas to accommodate future expansion or reconfiguration.
Scope Mission: To produce a long-range, integrated Master Planning document implementing the Adjutant General’s goals and objectives for development and operation of the State real properties located at the JFHQ-CO site, 6848 S. Revere Parkway, Centennial, CO 81007, and to assure continued mission performance at this complex.
PROJECT SPECIFIC GUIDANCE
The following project specific guidance will be conducted for the JFHQ-CO Master Plan:
a. Visioning
1) Visioning is essential to develop a shared and detailed understanding of the goals and objectives for the Master Plan. It will provide a preliminary understanding and definition of critical issues that could potentially impact the project’s outcome. The Contractor will, during visioning, meet with key stakeholders from the DMVA, JFHQ-CO, Military and other outside entities, as determined during the project initiation meeting.
2) The Contractor will review any previous documents, studies, planning data and pertinent information to establish internal and external planning baselines.
3) During the visioning phase, the Contractor will conduct a leadership session to create the overall guiding direction for the master plan revision based on the State leadership vision.
4) The Contractor will develop appropriate survey instruments and methodologies for gathering perspectives, which will allow for the understanding of short and long-term needs (5–50 years), while also identifying a long-range vision and corresponding goals.
b. Basis of Planning and Master Plan Drivers: The basis of planning drivers will be an outgrowth of the visioning, existing conditions analysis, and needs/requirements identification. Revision of planning opportunities and constraints will lead to more detailed planning objectives.
c. Program Development/Requirement Analysis
1) Prior to program development, the Contractor will conduct an on-site walk-through condition assessment of the existing facilities to evaluate, at a macro level to perfunctorily determine possible sitings that would be required to satisfy any positioning requirements and anti-terrorism setback requirements. The State will need to conduct further detailed on-site assessments to establish a complete scope of all facilities.
Program development includes proposed additions, modifications, and alterations by project for any or all of the proposed facilities.
2) This work effort includes documentation of new facility requirements as well as future modifications of facilities or infrastructure.
3) COARNG will provide existing documents/ information to support the selected firm:
i. Area Site Plans
ii. Boundary Surveys
iii. Facility calculations
iv. Environmental Studies
v. Detailed building and site calculations
vi. Specific Occupant Military Reports of personnel and equipment
