I. TYPES OF PROJECTS

A. General Description. Projects may include:

• Fire protection engineering and conceptual design services to include engineering analyses, CAD drawings, and recommendations for fire protection systems and construction of building life safety systems.

• Inventory of fire protection and life safety systems

• Construction management including submittal reviews, system acceptance testing, construction phase oversight for the FCO/AHJ of contract installer’s work to commission fire protection systems, and to recommend the issuance of a fire and life safety certificate of compliance to the FCO/AHJ.

• Life Safety and Fire Risk Assessments, which consists of a physical survey, cost estimates, and completion of the accompanying report.

B. Demonstrative Example 1 (Fictitious): Under the direction of a Registered Professional Fire Protection

Engineer, the A/E could be tasked with inventorying specific fire protection systems and specified attributes of the system as noted in each task order.

Additionally, when the Contractor is provided with a list of fire protection systems thought to be in a building, the

Contractor will be required to verify the system’s existence and note specific attributes of the system as required by the task order.

Field work does not require a license or certification to accomplish but does require specific knowledge and background in fire protection systems in order to accurately detail systems and their attributes.

Inventory Technicians conducting field documentation and the reporting associated with fire protection and life safety system inventory shall be persons employed with or subcontracted by the Contractor and possessing the appropriate experience. Any Inventory Technician associated with the project shall be working under the supervision of a registered professional Fire Protection Engineer in the United States.

• Demonstrative Example 2 (Fictitious): Task orders associated with this item are for fire protection engineering services that include the conceptual design of fire protection systems and building features in new or altered construction. During the conceptual design phase, the Contractor may be asked to serve as a member of a team of Contractors and NPS employees to include park representatives and the Fire Code Official (FCO)/Authority

Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) for the project. Contractors will perform engineering analyses and make recommendations for fire protection systems and construction of building life safety systems. The results of these tasks may consist of any combination of the following: a written engineering analyses, conceptual CAD drawings, technical specifications, and cost estimates necessary to support installation and/or replacement of the existing fire protection systems or building features. Contractors may be tasked to provide services during the

Pre-Design (PD), Schematic Design (SD), Design Document (DD) and/or Construction Document (CD) phases.

Task orders for these types of services will clearly specify the scope.

• Demonstrative Example 3 (Fictitious): Under the direction of a Registered Professional Fire Protection

Engineer, the A/E could be asked to provide construction phase advice for the AHJ/FCO of contract installer’s work, to recommend the commissioning of fire protection systems, and to recommend the issuance of fire and life safety certificates of compliance, required prior to occupancy by NPS policy.

• Demonstrative Example 4 (Fictitious): The A/E could be asked to produce a Life Safety and Fire Risk

Assessment, a physical survey and accompanying report that provides a complete evaluation of each park structure’s construction, function, operational support systems and occupancy as they impact fire protection and life safety. The report shall identify risks to life, property, or park mission from the effects of potential fire incidents. The report shall serve as a reference document to NPS management for planning and prioritizing projects for short term work in order to maintain satisfactory facility safety, and to plan for long-range decisions regarding renovation, reinvestment and preservation. Specific language regarding the assessment of collections and/or historic objects may be included in task orders.

Document Title

• Demonstrative Example 5 (Fictitious): The A/E could be asked to design an automatic fire alarm and suppression system for a historic building that protects the building and its occupants from fire while maintaining the building’s characteristic features and historic fabric while following the Secretary of the
