Statement of Objectives Department of Homeland Security (DHS)

1. PROJECT TITLE

Low Voltage “computer network” wiring to the FEMA facility located at 11000 IH 35N, Austin, TX 78753.

2. BACKGROUND

This location is the former Golfsmith Corporate facility. This single story office/tech building has been renovated multiple times.

3. SCOPE

The purpose of this project is to have low-voltage connections installed to provide “computer” network connectivity to new modular furniture workstations, renovated offices and multi-function devices as provided on the attached floor plan. The contractor will provide contracting services, labor and supplies necessary to provide connectivity to approximately 280 cubicles throughout the facility. The contractor will provide all materials and labor required install category 5E cabling, j-hooks, connectors, two-post racks, grounding equipment, twelve-strand fiber runs, patch panels as needed. The contractor will be responsible for floor, wall and ceiling protection. The contractor also will make repairs to any walls, flooring or ceiling that incur damage due to the nature of the electrical construction project. The contractor will remove all debris from the premises and transport to the appropriate sites. The FEMA dumpster at the rear of the building may be used, however the office trash cans are not to be used. The contractor will coordinate date and time of work with the appropriate FEMA and building contacts. Work must be performed during normal work hours (7am – 5pm). No Federal holidays. The work will need to be done in a reasonable amount of time. We anticipate 30 days to completion. All cabling, end-to-end, will be labeled to identify new circuits and tested. The contractor is responsible for all permitting and associated fees, and final inspection for approval of use by the local permitting office.

Notes: The building where work is to be performed is located at 11000 IH 35N, AUSTIN, TX. The work area encompasses approximately 90,000 square feet total. The entrances to the work area are close to where each phase of the work is located. There may be personnel and furniture in place where the contractor will be working.

1. FEMA will supply one MDF [Main Distribution Facility] and six IDF’s [Intermediate Distribution Facility]. The MDF and 4 of the 6 IDF’s [1-4] are located in Building A. The last two IDF’s [5 & 6] are in Building B.

2. FEMA will also supply electrical power for the MDF. Power for the IDF’s will be supplied via a dedicated electrical run from the MDF so as to utilize the Master Battery Backup [Powerware] and [Kohler] Diesel Generator Systems.

3. Contractor will adhere to EIA/TIA 568B Standards, unless otherwise noted.

4. The desks will have power poles with data internal raceways to support two (2) each data drops from approximately a 10-12 foot drop ceiling to a block cubicles.

5. Each “Office” will have two (2) data drops, unless indicated separately.

6. Each Conference Room will have at a minimum (3) data drops; one for wall mounted VTC [video teleconference system], one for VOIP Conference Phone and one for a Presenter’s laptop.

7. Where designated on the floor plan – each Printer or MFD [multi-function device] will have one data drop terminated, wall mounted and then terminated to the appropriate MDF/IDF.

8. Data cabling will be low-voltage wire [blue in color] from the server room MDF or the nearest IDF for cabling to the power poles and into furniture internal raceways for each desk station. This type of run will be called “Data” Drop.

9. Data Cables will be run above the drop ceiling in appropriate devices or raceways.

10. Data cables will be connected to the punch down at each desk station and patch panel.

11. Where appropriate [see below], Contractor will supply low-voltage [white in color] data drops terminated for RJ-11 Phone Service, home-run to Building A DMARC terminated to a designed 66 Block, tested and labeled. Contractor will supply the 66 Block and associated hardware at the workstation side capable of inserting an RJ-11 silver satin cable into the jack. This type of run will be called “Phone” Drop.

12. All cables will be tested for proper wiring and labeling [both ends of cable AND wall plate] by the contractor as required by FEMA IT.
