1. The Medical Center must maintain its operation 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Therefore, any interruption in service must be scheduled and coordinated with the COR to ensure that no lapses in operation occur. It is the CONTRACTOR'S responsibility to develop a work plan and schedule detailing, at a minimum, the procedures to be employed, the equipment and materials to be used, the interim life safety measure to be used during the work, and a schedule defining the duration of the work with milestone subtasks.

a. Normal working hours for this contract will be from 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM (local time), Monday through Friday, except for weekends and established Federal Holidays.

b. Performing on-site work outside of normal working hours will require approval from the

Contracting Officer (CO) and the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). Requests shall be submitted via email at least 72 hours prior to the requested date and at no additional cost to the Government. Approvals are subject to the availability of on-site staff.

2. To ensure such executions, Contractor shall furnish the COR with a schedule of approximate phasing dates on which the Contractor intends to accomplish work in each specific area of site, building or portion thereof. In addition, Contractor shall notify the COR 21 calendar days in advance of the proposed date of starting work in ICRA Class I and II work areas, and 28 calendar days in advance of the proposed date of starting work in ICRA Class III and IV work areas, as well as critical infrastructure buildings (i.e. Boiler Plant / Chiller Plant). Arrange such phasing dates to ensure accomplishment of this work in successive phases mutually agreeable to the VA Medical Center Director, COR, and Contractor.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS 01 00 00 - 07

3. A/E recommended phasing plans, put together with input from the VA COR and Infection

Controls personnel, takes into consideration the VA Medical Center complexity and broad scope of buildings impacted by TR/TE renovations and re-cabling efforts. Phasing of TR/TE renovations and individual room Cat 6A re-cabling will be heavily influenced by the ICRA precautions required by the VA, informed by the associated patient risk levels. Critical patient care areas should be considered distinct from non-patient care areas (engineering, admin space, etc.), and the Contractor shall regularly consult with the VA on patient care area phasing plans before commencing construction work and upon completion.

4. The following tables outline healthcare and non-healthcare spaces within the scope of this project, and the recommended phasing constraints:

*Contractor shall present work plan at least 28 calendar days in advance of work for VA pre-approval; (3) rooms maximum may be worked on at one time to allow for equipment movement and coordination with VA staff and services. Any variations in room maximum will be on a case-by-case basis and must be approved by the VA COR in advance of construction activities.

IV

*Normal business hours, pending VA approval of Contractor work plan submitted at least 28 calendar days in advance of start of work.

*Contractor shall present work plan at least 28 calendar days in advance of work for VA pre-approval; (1) room maximum may be worked on at one time to allow for equipment movement and coordination with VA staff and services. Any variations in room maximum will be on a case-by-case

basis and must be approved by the VA COR in advance of construction activities.

5. Contractor shall provide work plans to the VA for final approval. Contractor shall consider the following constraints in phasing:

a. Contractor shall not commence any planned phase of work without authorization from the COR and an approved outage schedule. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to review any appropriate VA phasing forms with VA COR during Pre-Construction Meeting. All subsequent planned outages will need to be documented and approved by the COR prior to the regulated outages.

b. The Government may halt work in patient care areas at no cost to the Government if work impedes patient care.

c. The Contractor will coordinate with the VA for movement of furniture from new TR/TE spaces prior to work starting.

d. Any TR/TE work that causes excessive noise and/or vibrations shall be coordinated with the VA COR and shall occur only during nights and/or weekends as approved by the VA

COR.

e. Contractor is responsible for ensuring continuous network connectivity for patient care spaces. Outages shall not exceed 1 work shift. Cable pulling shall only occur during non-working, non-peak hours, and scheduled weekends as approved by the VA COR, or as noted otherwise in the above tables.

f. Contractor is responsible for providing a work plan to the VA for approval regarding separation of existing cables and new, and all anticipated demo work.

g. Contractor to ensure that all work in the current phase is completed and approved by the VA COR before proceeding to another phase of work.

6. Taking the above into consideration, the A/E recommends the following phased sequence of construction activities. While it is ultimately up to the General Contractor to determine the construction schedule, the below offers a suggested sequence of construction activities:

PROPOSED PHASING SEQUENCE

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS 01 00 00 - 09

This section is a general overview of the sequence of construction activities pertaining to the new ductbank & fiber distribution, MCR renovation, and TR construction and renovation activities. For specific details pertaining to the individual project components, please see the indicated references directly below the general overview:
