About this file

This is a comprehensive technical specifications document for exhibit planning, design, and fabrication services under an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with the National Park Service, along with supporting environmental testing reports and photographs for the Kawuneeche Visitor Center rehabilitation project at Rocky Mountain National Park.

The specifications document establishes the standard processes, deliverables, and requirements for exhibit development across six major phases: Pre-Design, Schematic Design, Design Development, Production Design, Production Support, and Production/Fabrication. The Pre-Design phase includes site orientation, resource identification, exhibit planning workshops, and development of a Project Brief with Class C production cost estimates. Schematic Design requires development of three design alternatives with bubble diagrams, preliminary sketches, and Class B cost estimates, culminating in selection of a preferred design. Design Development is organized into three sub-phases (DD1, DD2, DD3) that progressively develop graphic layouts, text, material selections, electronic programs, audio description plans, and content management databases, with formative evaluation as required. Production Design (PD1 and PD2) finalizes all drawings, specifications, and production-ready files that become government property. The document specifies detailed requirements for accessibility compliance with ABAAS and Rehabilitation Act standards, universal design principles, audio description for visual content, and open captioning for audiovisual programs. Production-quality deliverables include comprehensive exhibit design drawings, graphic layouts with professional typography, material/color/finish samples, electronic equipment specifications, audio description production plans, and content management database reports. The contract establishes a project management structure with designated Base Contract and Task Order Project Managers responsible for quality control, schedule tracking, submittal coordination, and monthly status reporting to the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR).

The supporting environmental documentation includes asbestos analysis testing from EMLab P&K dated October 9, 2017, which identified asbestos content exceeding 1% in six of 26 samples analyzed from the Kawuneeche Visitor Center, specifically chrysotile asbestos in floor tile and mastic samples (3-7% concentration) and joint compound/texture samples (2% concentration). Lead paint testing by Reservoirs Environmental identified lead concentrations above the reporting limit (0.069-0.083%) in four exterior paint samples from the main building and detached bathroom building, all from circa 1963 construction era components. Lead in soil testing showed 13.4 mg/kg concentration. The photographs document various building materials sampled including baseboard adhesive, composite drywall/joint compound, duct sealant, flooring mastic, floor tile and mastic, insulation board, lay-in ceiling panels, asphaltic roofing material, textured wall surfacing, and sink pan undercoating across multiple locations within the visitor center facility dated October 6, 2017.

The test report shall not be reproduced except in full, without written approval of the laboratory. The report must not be used by the client to claim product certification, approval, or endorsement by NVLAP, NIST, or any agency of the federal government. EMLab P&K reserves the right to dispose of all samples after a period of thirty (30) days, according to all state and federal guidelines, unless otherwise specified.

Inhomogeneous samples are separated into homogeneous subsamples and analyzed individually. ND means no fibers were detected. When detected, the minimum detection and reporting limit is less than 1% unless point counting is performed. Floor tile samples may contain large amounts of interference material and it is recommended that the sample be analyzed by gravimetric point count analysis to lower the detection limit and to aid in asbestos identification.

Inhomogeneous samples are separated into homogeneous subsamples and analyzed individually. ND means no fibers were detected. When detected, the minimum detection and reporting limit is less than 1% unless point counting is performed. Floor tile samples may contain large amounts of interference material and it is recommended that the sample be analyzed by gravimetric point count analysis to lower the detection limit and to aid in asbestos identification.

1. Definitions

ABAAS: Architectural Barriers Act Accessibility Standards are the accessibility standards which per-tain to the Federal sector. The ABA, or Architectural Barriers Act of 1968, requires access to facilities designed, built, altered, or leased with federal funds. (See also “Accessible,” “ADA,” and “Rehabilita-tion Act.”)

Accessible: In context with the requirements of this contract, accessible is defined as in compliance with accessibility standards as specified in the Programmatic Accessibility Guidelines for National Park Service Interpretive Media. Federal laws, including the Architectural Barriers Act Accessibility Standards (ABAAS) and Sections 504 and 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, shall be followed. Universal Design and its seven principles shall be applied as a part of the NPS definition and requirements.

Accessioned Objects (AO): Objects accessioned into the park collection, or objects on loan from other institutions. These items require the highest level of preservation and security criteria. Historic objects also include original period items acquired as part of the exhibit project to enhance interpre-tation. Park staff determines whether to accession these objects on a case by case basis.

ADA: Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. This law prohibits discrimination against individuals on the basis of disability. It applies to state and local governments, and public accommodations oper-ated by the private sector. While there are exceptions, it does not generally apply to media and exhibi-tions that are federally funded and installed in federal facilities. Therefore, the term “ADA” or “ADA compliant” should not be used when referring to accessibility compliance in Federal Government owned and operated facilities. (See also “ABAAS” and “Rehabilitation Act.”)

Artifacts: See “Accessioned Objects.”

As-Built AV Drawings: Final design and detail drawings updated by the contractor to reflect all changes that occur during installation and provide a record of the “as-built” condition of the AV, or Electronic Equipment, systems. Drawings include all equipment, cables, connectors, connections points, and devices.

As-Built Exhibit Plan: The fabrication contractor updates exhibition content data (e.g., text, con-tent schedules, technical data, etc.) to reflect all changes that occur during fabrication and installation, and provides a record of the “as-built” condition of the exhibits, which may vary from the final design documents prepared by the exhibit planning & design contractor.

As-Built Exhibit Drawings: Final design and detail drawings updated by the fabrication contrac-tor to reflect all changes that occur during fabrication and installation and provide a record of the “as-built” condition of the exhibits, which may vary from the final design documents prepared by the exhibit planning & design contractor.

As-Built Lighting Plan: A final plan drawing for the installed exhibit lighting system showing fix-ture placement, focusing information, and itemized lists detailing fixture, accessory, and lamp data.

Assistive Listening Systems: Assistive listening is used by persons with mild to profound hearing loss who may or may not use a hearing aid. These systems are a suite of equipment used to deliver sound directly from its source to the person receiving it. The receiving person can also amplify the sound based on their needs. The amplified sound is transmitted via radio frequency or infrared to a receiver connected to the person’s headset, ear buds, or an induction loop that transmits the sound to the person’s hearing aid.

Audience-Centered Experience (ACE): Audience Centered Experiences are the practice of elicit-ing participation and contribution from an audience and community.

Audience-centered interpretation can infuse any and all park experiences by providing opportunities for audience members to contribute to the meaning-making process, engage with each other, and

AV Program Concept Treatment: A narrative overview of the proposed production’s creative approach and storyline prepared during the exhibit planning and design process. AV Concept Treat-ments typically include a description of the actors and/or participants, their roles and general dia-logue or narration, and a general description of the scenes, locations, graphics, artwork, and anima-tion to be used in the production with sufficient detail to provide a sense of the proposed production;

the basis of the production plan and script.

Audio Description (AD): Through words, AD describes visual content essential for understanding the content of a program. Audio description is used for a variety of media, including video, digital interactive programs and exhibits. People who are blind or have low vision are the primary audience, but audio description can also be used by people who have print disabilities or auditory learning styles. AD is typically scripted and recorded by a professional. In some cases, AD text may be read by a screen reader and synthesized voice. Specific delivery systems and techniques vary based on the media and venue. AD is also referred to as video description, verbal description, descriptive video and descriptive audio.

AV Program Production Plan: A document which presents the major categories of work to be performed in the planning, production, and post-production phases of the program. The Production Plan shall describe all of the elements required to produce the program as outlined in the Treatment and/or Scope of Work, including, but not limited to: production personnel (including the use and identification of sub-contractors, consultants, and other salaried employees of the firm), equipment, post-production facilities, travel, transportation, and a cost estimate of all materials expenses such as capture and storage media, and archival images. Within the Production Plan, the contractor shall con-firm that they understand the “Rights in Data—Special Works” requirements of the contract, includ-ing rights for music, stock footage, and other elements.

AV Program Production Treatment: A narrative description of the proposed production ele-ments to include an estimated percentage of the program that will be comprised of original, archival, or stock materials (including footage, photographs, or audio); reenactments; interviews; animation;

graphics; and illustrations; and the proposed source(s) for such materials. It shall also include a description of the narration, sound effects, and musical score, to include whether the score shall be comprised of original or stock music. The AV Production Treatment provides the basis of the AV Pro-duction Plan and script.

Audiovisual (AV) program: One type of Electronic Program (EP). AV programs include linear programs with fixed running times. Through the use and/or integration of numerous elements such as sound effects, music, voice-overs, interviews, moving and historic images, AV programs can be innate-ly dynamic. They are especially effective in eliciting emotional responses, telling stories, and conveying concepts where motion and/or sound are important or particularly effective. Throughout these spec-ifications “AV” is also used an as umbrella term to refer collectively to Audiovisual Programs, Digital Interactive Programs, and Electromechanical Programs.

Bubble Diagrams: Diagrams that use labeled shapes (bubbles) identifying exhibit themes and con-cepts to show how they relate to each other and/or to their location on the exhibit floor plan.

Captions: Captions are designed for persons who are deaf or have hearing loss. The terms “cap-tions” and “Subtitles for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing” (SDH) are used interchangeably in these specifications. They display spoken dialogue and non-speech information as printed words on tele-vision screens, computer monitors, projection screens, caption boards and other visual displays.

Non-speech information is audible information essential to understanding the content. Examples of non-speech information include speaker identification, sound effects, music, manner of speaking (whispering, word emphasis, emotion, etc.) and audience reactions (laughing, booing, etc.) Captions may hold secondary benefits for people who are learning a foreign language, learning how to read, Definitions | 5 watching a program in a noisy area, or understand best by processing visual information. While used as a catch-all term, different types of “captions” have their own unique technical production, pro-gramming, coding, playback, and/or decoding processes. Captions are either closed or open:

Closed Captions (CC): Closed captions do not appear on screen unless the viewer has selected them to appear. They require decoding technology. Closed captions are generally produced for online videos and DVD/BluRay discs. Closed captions shall not be used for audiovisual programs shown in NPS venues.

Open Captions (OC): Open captions are displayed on the screen at all times automatically as part of the video. There is no option to turn the captions on or off. They are “burned” into the picture. All audiovisual programs shown within NPS venues must display captions on-screen at all times. For NPS productions requiring open captions, contractors shall use a pro-duction process which allows control of font selection, size, color, edging, and other design parameters.

Charette: A meeting to brainstorm and fully explore all possible design directions for presentation and communication of content in the exhibition. Differs from the Exhibit Planning Workshop in that it is more focused on design solutions.

Class A Production Cost Estimate: Detailed cost estimate which includes an itemized break-down, at a minimum, of labor hours and rates, material costs, shipping, and travel, based on specifica-tions for all exhibit elements found in the Production Documents.

Class B Production Cost Estimate: An intermediate level cost estimate based on allocating an overall cost for each exhibit Scene or Content Group in the exhibition plan, and including allowances for all high-cost exhibit elements currently identified, contingency, shipping, and installation. Class B Production Cost Allowances/Estimates are used during the Schematic and Design Development phases of work, and become increasingly detailed as the design progresses.

Class C Production Cost Estimate: An initial cost estimate based on the cost of the exhibition per square foot. Class C estimates are used during the Pre-Design phase of work.

Closed Captions: See “Captions”

Comprehensive Exhibit Plan: A report from a Content Management Database that includes a comprehensive list of all exhibit elements, including AOs, CAs, CEs, EEs, EPs, GLs, IMs, and LAs.

Content Development: See Exhibit Planning.

Content Group: A discrete thematic story or information set within an exhibition that, together with adjacent related Content Groups, is part of a larger Scene. A Content Group tells one aspect of the larger story or information presented in the overall Scene.

Content Management: A system to organize and track all media elements to be featured in the exhibition, organized by unique exhibit element number.

Content Management Numbering System: A system that identifies each exhibit element with a unique number (the Element Identification Number) made up of three parts, separated by hyphens, as follows: Element Type - Scene - Content Group Number - Item Number. For example, IM-02-04-

Content Specialties: Any exhibit element that requires detailed subject matter, creative, technical, and/or artistic input to inform and direct its production by a creative or technical specialist. These elements include, but are not limited to, original artwork, sculptures, models, reproductions, objects, dioramas, life-sized figures, and electronic programs.

Content Specialties Reference Package: A document consisting of written descriptions and graphic depictions that together provide the background information and design intent needed for

6 | Definitions an artist, craftsman, or technical specialist to produce a custom element. Prepared during the Design Development and Production Design phases of exhibit planning and design.

Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR): For Federal Government contracts, an authorized representative of the Contracting Officer responsible for monitoring the quality and performance of work performed under individual contracts.

Custom Element (CE): General category for three-dimensional content in an exhibition that is not otherwise categorized. Custom Elements may be commercially available items, but more often are specifically created for the exhibition, requiring creative design, and/or artistic development and execution. Examples include sculptures, architectural models, natural history models, reproduction historic objects, dioramas, manipulatives, electrical and mechanical interactive devices, mannequins, and topographic maps. Custom Elements are tracked in the Content Management Numbering Sys-tem, and are inventoried in FMSS where they are designated as “Custom Three-Dimensional Exhibit Elements.”

Custom Three-Dimensional Exhibit Element: Term used for FMSS inventory. See Custom Element.

Design Alternatives: Distinct approaches to the exhibit content, its organization and presentation in the given exhibition space. Multiple Design Alternatives (usually three) are developed in the Sche-matic Design 1 phase of work as part of the process used to arrive at a Preferred Design Alternative.

Design Development: The phase of the exhibit development process in which all major content and design details of the project are completed. Technical details required for Production are not included in this phase of work.

Digital Interactive program: One type of Electronic Program (EP), which is often non-linear.

These programs encourage users to become engaged through interaction, exploration, and learning at their own pace and may include multiple layers of information.

Electromechanical program: One type of Electronic Program (EP). Electromechanical programs include but are not limited to electronic programming such as LED lights within a map, diorama, or other exhibit element; lighting programmed to be synchronous or otherwise function in concert with exhibits or exhibit elements; and motion sensors programmed to trigger lighting, audiovisual, digital interactive, or mechanical exhibit elements.

Electronic Equipment (EE): All electronic and ancillary equipment required to present or support the presentation of Electronic Programs, Assistive Listening, and Audio Description, in an exhibition, including any programmed lighting and electromechanical devices.
