RFI part 1.docx

This document is a Request for Information (RFI) Part 1 with questions and answers related to the installation of an isolation filter system. The RFI requests drawings showing the location where the (34) VA-provided isolation units will be installed, including the power and data source locations. It also asks about the desired pressure (positive or negative) for the rooms and the number of filter boxes required per unit. The answers indicate that the system includes two filters per blower unit, the exhaust is sent to the supply, and the drawings are provided in the "Complete Drawings" attachment.

The related federal contract opportunity is a solicitation from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to install the 34 VA-provided RGF BioControls EXC7-UV negative/positive pressure isolation units with UV function, Accustat, and EchoPhan blower module in building 172 at the VA Northern Indiana Health Care - Marion Campus. The contractor will be required to connect the units to the facility building management system. The work must be completed within 120 calendar days from the notice to proceed, and only electronic bids are being accepted via email to Colin.Remes@va.gov.
