OFPM Site Standards.zip

This file is a zip archive containing OFPM (Office of Facilities and Property Management) Site Standards documentation for the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Boulder, Colorado campus. The standards materials support Solicitation 1333ND26RNB190015, a Design-Build project addressing safety shower and eyewash fixture deficiencies across multiple buildings at the Department of Commerce research facility located at 325 Broadway in Boulder.

The project scope requires contractors to remediate emergency shower and eyewash fixtures to achieve compliance with ANSI Z358.1-2014 standards. The work is structured as a base contract with Building 22 (B22) as the primary scope, supplemented by four option contract line items (CLINs) covering Buildings 25 (B25), 42 (B42/Central Utility Plant), 1 (B1), and 2 (B2). Annual testing revealed significant fixture failures during simultaneous operation of combination shower/eyewash units. While NIST OFPM staff have remedied some deficiencies through in-house corrective actions, contracted construction is required for larger-scope areas. The standards documentation contained in this zip file provides design guidance and technical requirements that serve as an optional starting point for contractor design and coordination efforts, with additional design development expected during contract performance.
