STATEMENT OF WORK

DCMR KITCHEN CABINET AND COUNTERTOP RENOVATION

Summary

The U.S. Embassy Ankara requires a qualified Contractor to renovate the existing kitchen and associated hall areas at the Deputy Chief of Mission Residence (DCMR). The work includes design, field verification, demolition, custom cabinetry, countertop, sink and faucet, plumbing, electrical and lighting renewal, radiator relocation and replacement, floor and backsplash tile work, painting, finishes, testing, cleaning, and all related accessories and incidentals required for a complete, functional installation.

Existing-condition photographs, concept drawings, and dimensions in the solicitation are for reference and design intent. Dimensions are approximate. The Contractor shall verify dimensions, appliance and utility locations, wall and floor conditions, clearances, and other site conditions before procurement, fabrication, or installation.

The concept design establishes the preferred overall appearance. The final design shall be based on the

Contractor's site measurements, approved materials, approved shop drawings, and written direction from the

Contracting Officer's Representative (COR). Window-frame and window-trim replacement, major-appliance replacement, and natural-gas-line modification are excluded unless specifically authorized in writing by the

Contracting Officer.

Work Plan

The Contractor shall coordinate all activities with Facility Management, the House Manager, and the COR to minimize disruption to residence operations. Normal working hours are 08:00 to 17:00. Work outside these hours, including weekends or holidays, requires prior COR approval.

All Requests for Information and submittals shall be directed to the COR. No procurement, fabrication, demolition, or installation shall begin until the applicable submittals and work sequence have received written

COR approval. Approval does not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for accuracy, code compliance, coordination, or complete performance.

Scope of Work

The Contractor shall provide all design services, materials, labor, supervision, tools, equipment, transportation, temporary protection, testing, disposal, and incidentals required to complete the project. The work includes, at a minimum:

1. Prepare and submit a preliminary design proposal with the offer and, after award, complete field-verified shop drawings and coordinated technical submittals.

2. Protect the residence and carefully remove existing kitchen and hall cabinetry, countertop, sink, faucet, backsplash/wall finish, floor tiles, radiator, and other components affected by the approved design.

3. Fabricate and install custom kitchen and hall cabinetry, including the concealed integrated ladder module, hardware, accessories, fillers, finished panels, and aluminum plinth/base systems.

4. Provide and install the new sintered-stone countertop, stainless-steel sink, professional-grade faucet, waste-disposal system, and associated plumbing connections.

5. Renew affected electrical outlets, switches, lighting circuits, task lighting, cabinet-interior lighting, and spotlights in accordance with the approved design.

6. Relocate the heating connection to the other window location and provide and install the specified cast-iron radiator.

7. Replace all floor tiles within the approved project area and install the approved backsplash/wall finish, including substrate preparation, adhesive, leveling, grouting, and finishing.

8. Complete required painting, patching, repair, testing, final adjustments, debris removal, and cleaning so the kitchen and hall areas are ready for use.

Technical Requirements

1. Bid-Stage Design and Technical Submission

Each bidder shall submit a preliminary design proposal with its offer. The proposal shall show the general design approach for the kitchen and hall areas, including the proposed layout, cabinet arrangement, countertop, materials, finishes, lighting approach, radiator location, floor finish, and other principal design elements.

The offer shall identify the proposed brand, model, manufacturer, and principal technical specifications for materials, products, equipment, hardware, and accessories. The bidder shall provide, as applicable:

• Technical data sheets and product specifications.

• Certificates, test reports, and compliance documents.

• Warranty information.

• A proposed work schedule and list of employees.

The Government may request additional documents or samples during evaluation or approval.

2. Post-Award Shop Drawings and Material Approvals

After award and before procurement or fabrication, the Contractor shall field-verify all dimensions and submit a coordinated technical architectural package for COR approval. The package shall include:

• Dimensioned plans for the kitchen and hall areas.

• Elevations for all cabinet runs and affected walls.

• Sections and fabrication details for upper, lower, and tall cabinets; countertop; backsplash; toe-kicks;

• Plumbing layout for the sink, dishwasher, water-purification system, waste-disposal system, clean-water piping, and wastewater piping.

• Heating-system layout showing the relocated piping and new radiator at the other window location.

• Material, finish, and color samples for cabinetry, countertop, tile, grout, paint, hardware, sink, faucet, lighting, radiator, and related accessories.

• A detailed work sequence and final schedule.

Necessary design adjustments resulting from verified site conditions shall be incorporated into the final drawings and submitted to the COR for written approval.

3. Demolition, Protection, and Disposal

The Contractor shall protect existing floors and finishes that are to remain, walls, windows, doors, appliances, furniture, and adjacent areas. Dust barriers, floor protection, and daily cleanup shall be maintained throughout the work.

Removal shall be performed carefully without damaging the structure, utilities, appliances, or adjacent finishes.

Clean-water lines shall be composite PPRC piping. Wastewater lines shall be low-noise drainage piping. The

Contractor shall coordinate routes and connection points with the approved design and shall test all systems for leakage before concealment and final acceptance.

7. Electrical and Lighting

Electrical outlets, switches, and lighting circuits within the project scope shall be renewed. Halogen-free, flame-retardant cables shall be used throughout the renewed installation. Where required by the approved design, suitable circuit breakers and residual-current protection devices shall be provided.

8. Heating-System Revision

The Contractor shall provide the piping and installation work required to replace the existing radiator and relocate it to the other window location shown in the approved design.

The new radiator body shall be high-quality gray cast iron, free of cracks, voids, porosity, burrs, and other defects that could affect performance.
