PROJECT NAME: EHRM – Training and Admin Support Space

1. GENERAL INTENT:

The Contractor (herein referred to as “A/E”) shall provide Architect/Engineer (A/E) services to design a construction project at the Bronx 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, 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 prepare a site and provide utilities to support modular trailer installation to provide Electronic Health Record Modernization (EHRM) training and administrative support spaces.

The project shall include design services to prepare the site for placement of the modular trailers including earthwork, pavements and a parking area. A/E shall include design services to provide and install power, water, sewer, and telecommunication utilities for 6 double wide modular buildings that will be located on or near the old basketball courts on the NE corner of the Bronx VAMC campus. The project scope does not include any work inside the modular buildings and ends where the utility services connect to the modular buildings. Coordination with Cerner Corporation will be required to assure the site and utilities are “plug and play” when trailers are delivered.

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 (solicitation support) and construction phases of the construction project, attendance at pre‐bid, post‐ award and kick off construction project conferences, review of construction material submittals and shop drawings, approximately 2 site visits during construction (before and after modular trailer placement) to ensure compliance with the design drawings and specifications, review of any construction project modifications for cost and technical acceptability, attendance and participation during 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 the VA during construction period services, maintain RFI log and provide meeting minutes for weekly construction meetings throughout the duration of construction. Additionally, the AE shall include commissioning services for all new equipment, specifically MEP, HVAC, door/security, life safety requirements, amongst others. The HVAC commissioning shall oversee and verify balancing of the entire construction area. The AE shall develop a commissioning plan and provide as part of the construction solicitation. 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. The A/E shall initiate detailed inspection of the project site to determine the needs and conditions for the design of this project. Copies of Bronx VAMC record drawings and the EHRM infrastructure readiness assessment documents will be made available to the highest rated A/E firm; the A/E will verify the validity of the record drawings prior to the start of design work and conduct site investigations as necessary throughout the design.

SOW Attachment 1 – Bronx VAMC Campus Map will give AE firm a basic understanding of the VA campus.

The A/E shall be solely responsible for the management, including all associated labor, equipment, materials, mailing costs, and inspection, to meet the requirements of the design project. The A/E shall further provide meeting minutes for all meetings held under this design project.

The A/E firms’ representatives performing site investigations on the Bronx VAMC campus must have the following additional requirements before starting site investigations on campus:

1. Negative TB Test, within the past calendar year

2. N95 fit tested and documented

3. Clear Face Shield

4. N95 mask with no vent. Must be replaced when damaged or soiled
