1. GENERAL INTENT: The Contractor (herein referred to as “A/E”) shall provide Architect/Engineer (A/E) services to design a construction project at Baltimore VAMC in accordance with this design scope of work.

2. STATEMENT OF WORK: A/E Part One Services (also known as Design Phase) for this design project includes site visits, field investigation, conduct of studies and user interviews to prepare drawings, specifications, and cost estimates for all facets of work and disciplines/trades to facilitate a construction project to upgrade the facilities electric and IT to allow for the new Electronic Health Record Modernization (EHRM) system. The project shall include, but is not limited to the following at Bldg 1 and site. Electrical (electrical panel upgrade, power (normal, emergency)), Bonding, UPS, Building Management System interfaces, replace existing HVAC, reconfiguration, expansion and renovation of existing space (demo, new construction, finishes), elevator replacement, communication infrastructure (new Data outlets, patch panels, upgrade to Cat 6A cable) in the building, physical security upgrades, assess and upgrade fiber infrastructure backbone, hazardous material abatement, and utilities to exterior for future connection of trailers. The A/E shall stringently design per the Government requirements for a system which will support the Electronic Health Record equipment provided by Cerner. The AE shall provide drawing, specification and IGE submissions at 30% (SD), 60% (DD), 90% (CD) and 100% (Bid) to the VA.

A/E Part Two Services of this design project (also known as Construction Period Services) includes responding to construction contractor Requests For Information (RFIs) during the solicitation and construction phases of the construction project, attendance at pre-bid, post-award and commissioning kick off construction project conferences, review of construction material submittals and shop drawings, approximately 10 site visits (minimum) during construction (both scheduled and emergent) to ensure compliance with the design drawings and specifications, preparation of site visit reports, coordination with project commissioning requirements, review of any construction project modifications for cost and technical acceptability, attendance in the final acceptance inspection, preparation of the punch list and preparation of record drawings of the completed construction project based on the construction contractor’s as-built drawings. The A/E shall prepare a submittal log to be utilized by VA during construction period services and are required to review and comment on submittals and RFI’s on a web based electronic construction document management system such as Submittal Exchange. The AE shall provide meeting minutes for weekly construction meetings throughout the duration of construction. All Part Two Services are optional line items and will not be exercised at the time of award.

The above paragraphs constitute a basic outline of the work to be accomplished and in no way comprises all the details for design of this project.
