Questions and Answers 8.11.2022

This RLP is subject to the Prospectus threshold set forth in 40 USC § 3307. The Government will award a Lease pursuant to this RLP only if the offered rental rate does not exceed the then current rent threshold. The current threshold is available from the LCO or at the GSA Web site, HTTP://WWW.GSA.GOV, using the keyword “prospectus.”

1. Can you provide the prospectus threshold or possibly point us in the right direction to find it?

above 1 million

2. Please confirm if there are any noise requirements for this project? The TIL has specific requirements for different room types. Most areas will call for an STC rating ranging from 40-50, depending on the room function.

3. Please provide a floor plan to accompany the Program for Design(PFD). If you have a conceptual layout that will help as well. There is a PACT functional diagram that accompanies the FORCE package that illustrates how the clinic should be laid out. I cannot provide a floorplan for a building that doesn’t exist or an existing space I haven’t seen.

4. Are we to follow the VA design guide for hospital projects on the TIL? There are several sections of the TIL that will need to be adhered to, PG-18-12 is the source for all design guides. PACT Space Module Design Guide (va.gov) is specific to our Community Based Outpatient Clinics. There may be other Design Guides that need to be referenced for specific services i.e. Audiology, Eye Clinic, Dental, where applicable.

5. VA handbook 0730/4 physical security requirements and options appendix B dated 5/29/13, section 3.2./ section 3.4, section 7.5, and section 5.12. Is this a shell or TI cost? I do not have an answer. This may be a question for Contracting.

6. Is there a setback requirement for the canopy? If so, what is it? Also are the main and ambulance canopy the same? I am not aware of any setback requirements beyond Federal, State, and Local codes.

7. Is there a requirement for the due diligence period? No

8. Please confirm if it is acceptable for only cover the passenger side of the vehicle in the drop-off position at the main entrance. No, the covered drop off should be sufficiently sized to accommodate a whole vehicle as many of our patients require assistance getting in and out of a vehicle.

9. Does this CBOC require a Mobile MRI Pad and the associated infrastructure for a MRI vehicle?

No
