STATEMENT OF

WORK:

Objective of this Contract: Design and construct Community Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC) (approx, 150,000 SF) and Central Utility Plant (CUP) (approx. 8,550) (Stockton, San Joaquin County), in accordance with the criteria contained herein and using industry standard materials and efficient practices. Executive Order (EO) 13690 was signed January 30, 2015 regarding building in floodplains, therefore the site grade at the buildings and surrounding areas, within project boundaries, is to be raised to be above the 500-Year Floodplain level. The objective of this contract is to design and construct the required facility as described in this document to meet the operational requirements of the operating VA Health Care System. The Contractor shall provide all labor, equipment, material, tools and services to construct the complete, operational facility and site features of this project titled Community Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC) and Central Utility Plant (CUP).

Current site does have access to temporary services, i.e. electricity and water. It does not have access to the required supporting utilities; these services are to be brought to the site under a separate contract, to be constructed concurrently with this project.

BACKGROUND FOR THE PROJECT:

The CBOC is to be located on an approximately 52-acre site in French Camp, CA, which is, located just south of Stockton. This new San Joaquin County Campus will accommodate approximately 50 percent of Livermore VAMC’s existing primary care, specialty care, mental health and ancillary/diagnostic workload. Locating the proposed expanded San Joaquin County CBOC on this parcel will generate significant economies of scale due to consolidation of support services and ancillary/diagnostic activities. A Central Utility Plant (CUP) will also be developed on the site with the CBOC, to support the CBOC, and future projects. The scope also will include landscape, parking (surface not a garage) and other exterior revisions associated with the utility feeds, cabling and site work.

The design of the CBOC needs to provide a light and transparent quality in keeping with its mission of accessible care and state-of-the-art services. The building’s arrival and entry sequence needs to assist patients in finding their way to parking and then to their appointment, especially for those patients who are arriving on the campus for the first time.

Providing a visible and welcoming drop-off point, in the form of an enlarged mate two-story lobby and drop off canopy, will assist in way-finding, reassuring patients that they have come to the right door. The design of the CBOC also needs to balance a nurturing environment with elements that inspire patients. The design needs to communicate to veterans how important their health and wellness is to the VA.
