1.1 Project Description

The project name is FY20 Hadnot Point Medical/Dental Clinic Replacement and is located at Camp Lejeune near Jacksonville, North Carolina. It includes 39,978(GSF)/22,924(NSF) of new construction. The project includes vacating and moving 0 NSF of existing facilities. Only personnel will be relocated. The project is a DBB project. The Designer of Record (DOR) is SS&A and the Construction contractor is Whiting-Turner Contracting Company. The Design/Construction project is administered by the NAVFAC MFDO located in Washington Navy Yard, DC. The IO&T Contract is administered by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) located in Little Rock, AR. The DOR was awarded on 26 February 2016 and the Construction award on 28 September 2019. Refer to attached Project Schedule for estimated phasing and completion dates.

The project is a stand-alone IO project that follows the DBB project for this location, with minimal reuse. Transition is expected to only include 150 personnel (estimated), not FFE-LVS. The Contractor must use Revit for this project. A simple import of the AutoCAD file into Revit is the expectation. The purpose is to ensure the FFE-LVS fits in the space and clearance compliances are still met. Revit provides a 3D view of this, which is preferred. The IO Contractor is validating what the DoR has planned. The Gov’t understands that the utilities will not be part of the Revit file. The utilities will need to be deconflicted during the Quarterly Site Visits done by Key Personnel, as outlined in section 2.5.5 of this document.

The Contractor will validate the DoR’s plans, PRC, and End User’s mission needs. The PRC for this project was re-validated two years ago. Minimal changes are expected and should be on a mission change only basis, unless FFE specified in the current plans is obsolete. Key equipment items to look at are listed in paragraph 2.3.3, Medical & Other Equipment Services.

The project includes the following buildings:

1. Building [Medical/Dental Clinic Hadnot Point], Building [HP402]. Scope: [39,978(GSF)/22,924(NSF)]

2. Temporary Facilities include: None foreseen at this time

1.2 Cost

FFE-LVS is classified as Personal Property (PP) or Real Property Installed Equipment (RPIE)]. The IO&T Contractor is required to provide FFE-LVS classified as PP unless otherwise noted on the attached Project Room Contents (PRC) and the attached LVS List.

All PP is funded with two types of appropriations: 1) “Initial Outfitting” Funds (IO); and 2) “Procurement” Funds (P). All RPIE is funded with “Project Funds (PF)” also known as “design and construction” funds. The IO&T Contractor is required to price and track all IO related fund sources for the duration of the project. Refer to Table 1. Fund Sources by Property Type/Service.
