About this file

This is a Statement of Work for Project No. 516-22-112, requiring upgrades to the Pharmacy IV Mixing Rooms at Lee County VA Health Care Center in Cape Coral, Florida, to achieve compliance with USP 797 and USP 800 standards for sterile and hazardous drug compounding environments. The contractor must perform construction, mechanical, electrical, and architectural upgrades to Rooms 1B164, 1B165, and 1B166 to address deficiencies in air quality, pressurization, hazardous drug containment, and workflow safety. The Department of Veterans Affairs is the federal agency involved.

The contractor is responsible for complete site preparation including demolition and alterations; compliance with VA design manuals, drawings, and specifications; and adherence to VA security procedures and badge requirements. Key operational requirements include confining activities to COR-approved areas, maintaining clear facility access, limiting material deliveries to two-day supplies, and minimizing disruption to 24/7 clinical operations. Utility coordination requires maintaining continuous service with minimum seven-day advance notice for routine shutdowns and 15 days for major shutdowns. The contractor must submit a phased construction plan with two-week advance notice before work begins in any room. Additional deliverables include a detailed Testing and Commissioning Plan with pre-testing and final testing in the COR's presence; continuously updated as-built drawings in PDF format submitted at each phase end; a Warranty Management Plan submitted 30 days before the pre-warranty conference with participation in 4-month and 9-month inspections; complete O&M manuals in electronic and hard copy formats; factory-trained personnel to conduct staff training; and VA-compliant construction signage. The contractor must also perform pre-construction condition surveys, protect existing conditions, manage environmental waste including PCB-containing equipment per EPA and DOT requirements, and restore all disturbed areas to original or better condition.
