2. Contract or Task Order Title. Raised Floor Upgrade - DISA Data Center Mechanicsburg

3. Background.

Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Computing Centers provide routine and mission-critical computer processing resources and support to numerous Government agencies, 24 hours per day, and seven (7) days a week. DISA’s operational goal is to provide high availability and redundancy to all supported programs and workloads at a Tier III redundant datacenter. The Mechanicsburg Data Center needs upgrades to the raised access floor and Signal Reference Grid (SRG) grounding system in the computer rooms. The existing raised floor panels have reached the end of their useful life and must be replaced with concrete core panels for fire protection and higher floor load capacity, to meet the DOD standards. DISA’s IT mission requires computer room raised floor space be cooled in a standard computing room configuration with computer room air handers and the underfloor plenum.

4. Objectives.

This project will upgrade the Raised Access Floor to meet load capacity and the Signal Reference Grid (SRG) grounding system in the computer rooms. All access floor panels shall be replaced with new concrete core panels and the access flooring structure shall be upgrade with new stingers in a basket weave configuration. Lifting of existing racks shall be required for the removal and installation of the raised access floor panels. Clean the structural floor during floor replacement. The Raised Access Floor is an 18" high cold air plenum approximately 45,140 square feet in area. Work includes all installation of equipment, electrical supplies, connections, and testing, quality control and parts warranty. This is a requirement of the DoD Core Data Center (CDC) reference architecture and CDC engineering standards.

5. Scope.

Upgrade the Raised Access Floor to meet load capacity and the SRG grounding system in the main second floor Computer Rooms 201, 202, 203, 203A and 214, Electrical Rooms 200A and 200B, Corridor 210, and the Offices 211 and 212.

The Government may require surge support during the performance of the project. Surge modifications will be within the scope of the contract and provide increased support within the defined scope of this PWS. Surge support over the life of the contract will not exceed 5.00% of the contractor’s total proposed cost/price for the base and all option periods, excluding any six-month extension of services pursuant to FAR 52.217-8.

· ANSI/NETA Acceptance Testing Standards (ATS)

· International Building Code (IBC)

· Military Standard (MIL-STD-188-124B) for Grounding, Bonding and Shielding

· National Electrical Code (NFPA 70)

· National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)

6.6 Installation Surge Requirements:

An "Installation Surge" is defined as an installation/site condition or issue that cannot reasonably be expected to be accounted for during preparation of the Government's requirement nor the contractor's preparation of their proposal. The nature of completing projects to upgrade the Raised Floor System within existing facilities infrastructure contains a certain degree of risk/unknowns in encountering unforeseen site conditions. As a result, it is not feasible for the Government, nor the contractor, to anticipate all the conditions and/or issues that may arise during installation. Some of these conditions include, but are not limited to:

6.6.1 Substandard and non-code compliant electrical and mechanical equipment installations found during new or replacement equipment installation. In such cases, these items must be brought into compliance with applicable Life Safety and Federal Government guidelines.

6.6.2 Existing equipment infrastructure that must be modified in order to accommodate the installation of the new or replacement equipment under contract. This example includes existing conduit, conductors, waterlines, communication cabling that must be relocated or re-routed to allow equipment under contract to be installed in the specified location.

6.6.3 Installation contingencies are anticipated throughout the life of this contract; therefore, the Government intends to issue a CLIN that will support resolution of the issues in real time. If at any time during the project installation the contractor identifies any work/requirement that falls within the scope of the Installation Surge CLIN, the COR and Contracting Officer should be notified immediately and prior to work commencing; the contractor shall include a rough estimate of costs to correct the issue within their notification to the COR and Contracting Officer. Once an installation Surge requirement is identified by the contractor to the appropriate Government POC (identified in paragraph 1), the Contracting Officer will contact the Contractor's Program Manager in writing to authorize performance start immediately under the Installation Surge Cost CLIN. The installation Surge CLIN may only be authorized for mission-critical repairs/ support as identified by the Contracting Officer.
