17 October 2023 Project No. 459-310

ARCHITECT-ENGINEER DESIGN SCOPE OF WORK

Expand and Renovate Center for Aging to Support the Psychiatric Residential

Recovery Program

PROJECT NO: 459-310

PROJECT NAME: Expand and Renovate Center for Aging to Support the Psychiatric Residential Recovery Program

1. GENERAL INTENT:

The Contractor (herein referred to as “the A/E”) shall provide Architect/Engineer (A/E) services to design a construction project at the Department of Veteran’s Affairs (VA) Pacific Islands Health Care System (VAPIHCS) in accordance with this design scope.

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 Expand and Renovate Center for Aging to Support the Psychiatric Residential Recovery Program. The project shall include, but is not limited to the following:

a) A new 12,000 Gross Square Footage (GSF) building addition to existing Building 110 Center for Aging (CFA) to support the required services for the Psychiatric Residential Recovery Program (PRRP). The expansion must include patient care services, administrative areas, and support areas as described in the Farnsworth Group project Study Appendix 6.1 Program for Design (reference: SOW - Att 01 - Farnsworth - Bldg 110 - CFA Exp Study - Residential Recovery Prg – Honolulu) .

b) Renovate up to 15,000 GSF of the existing CFA B-Wing including: converting double bedrooms with shared bathrooms (4-beds/1-bathroom) to single bedrooms with adjacent bathroom, as described in the Farnsworth Group project Study.

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 commissioning kick off construction project conferences, review of construction material submittals and shop drawings, approximately one (1) site visit per month during construction (both scheduled and emergent) to ensure compliance with the design drawings and specifications, preparation of site visit reports, coordination with project commissioning requirements, 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

Honolulu, Hawaii 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. 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 VA Pacific Islands Health Care System (VAPIHCS) record drawings 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.

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 VAPIHCS campus must have the following additional requirements before starting site investigations on campus:

1. Pre and weekly negative COVID test while working in patient care areas

2. Daily visit at check-in station for COVID and temperature screening

a. Sticker/device must be worn visibly.

3. Contractor badge must be obtained and worn by contractor or representative at all times while on campus

3. DESIGN WITHIN FUNDING LIMITATIONS:

The design shall be prepared by the A/E to permit the award of a construction contract, using Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) procedures for the construction of the facilities, at a cost that does not exceed the project’s estimated Veteran’s Affairs Acquisition Regulations (VAAR) Magnitude of Construction between $10,000,000.00 and $20,000,000.00.

4. DESIGN INDEPENDENCE, FURNITURE AND EQUIPMENT: Designs for construction must produce a “complete and usable” facility or improvement when constructed. VA policy (VHA Office of Capital Assets Management, Engineering and Support memo Updated Construction Guidance and Expectations dated Sep 12, 2016) requires the A/E to certify that their design (including all bid alternates/bid deducts) is independent of any future construction project. In addition, the A/E must certify that it has produced a design that does not include furniture and equipment that will be procured separately. Equipment that can be part of the design in the includes those items to meet code requirements for building occupancy, items covered in the VA’s Master Construction Specifications (PG-18-1) Divisions 1 through 10, 13 through 26 or 28 through 48, non-IT equipment items covered by Division 27 and items covered by Division Numbers 12 31 00, 12 32 00, 12 34 00 and 12 36 00.

The A/E shall submit as part of the Final Bid Documents submittal a signed letter on company letterhead stating the design’s independence.

This designation under the construction contract shall be considered equivalent to the industry standard of “Owner’s Representative” and does not supersede or eliminate the A/E’s responsibility for Part Two Services/Construction Period Services. The A/E ultimately shall be responsible for any errors and omissions with the design discovered during and after the construction phase.

17. OI&T INFRASTRUCTURE STANDARD FOR TELECOMMUNICATION SPACE:

The current version for this standard is version 3.1, dated July 1, 2021 (https://www.cfm.va.gov/til/dguide/OIT-InfrastrucStdTelecomSpaces.pdf). The design for this project at The VAPIHCS must meet the Campus Support Center (CSC) requirements of the Infrastructure Standard for Telecommunications Spaces.

The Infrastructure Standard for Telecommunications Spaces (The Standards) serves as the master reference document of criteria for Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) facility Information Technology (IT) support infrastructure. It defines the technical requirements necessary to maintain optimum reliability and efficiency within VA facilities and computing centers. IT Support Infrastructure is defined as all passive telecommunications and information technology equipment, and supporting physical space and equipment.

This standard is owned and maintained by Solution Delivery (SD) Data Center and Infrastructure Engineering and questions or concerns should be directed to the following email group: OIT ITOPS SD Data Center and Infrastructure Engineering.

Users must ensure their use of this technology/standard is consistent with VA policies and standards, including, but not limited to, VA Handbooks 6102 and 6500; VA Directives 6004, 6513, and 6517; and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) standards, including Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS). Users must ensure sensitive data is properly protected in compliance with all VA regulations. Prior to use of this technology, users should check with their supervisor, Information Security Officer (ISO), Facility Chief Information Officer (CIO), or local Office of Information and Technology (OI&T) representative to ensure that all actions are consistent with current VA policies and procedures prior to implementation.
