Statement of Work

Replace Electrical Panels in the Patriot Store VA Montana Project 436-24-101

GENERAL

A site walk-through is highly recommended to be performed prior to submitting a proposal. Offerors shall not visit the site without prior approval from the Contracting Officer and an escort from the Engineering Department.

The contractor shall ensure to follow VA Master Specifications as found in the website link provided. Additionally, the Contractor is required to meet all applicable laws and regulation not explicitly stated in this document as considered best practice for the State of Montana. As-built drawings shall be conducted and produced in compliance with VA Publications including Master Construction Specifications, Electrical Design Manual, and automated drawing standards (http://www.cfm.va.gov/TIL). Compliance with public law regarding energy utilization is required. If two or more requirements conflict, notify the Contracting Officer immediately and the more stringent requirement shall apply.

Should a conflict exist between VA requirements and VA adopted nationally recognized codes and standards, the conflict shall be brought to the attention of the VA. The resolution of the conflict shall be made by the authority having jurisdiction for the VA to ensure a consistency system-wide.

PERIOD OF PERFORMACE

The period of performance is 90 days from issuance of the notice to proceed.

AS-BUILT DRAWINGS

The contractor shall maintain, As-built construction drawings on-site. The contractor shall visually identify any red line changes in person with the VAMC Ft Harrison COR. Within 10 days from construction completion, the contractor shall furnish As-built Constructed Record drawings in the latest AutoCAD version. Autodesk Revit © drawings shall NOT BE submitted. All drawings shall comply with VA s PG-18-4 Standard Details and CAD Standards.

SCOPE OF WORK

The VA Montana Healthcare System requires the services of a qualified Electrical engineering firm and Registered Electrical contractor in the State of Montana to provide services to build out an electrical room in the Canteen. The project consists of the replacement two (2) existing electrical panels supporting the patriot store, kitchen, and other locations as well as one bid alternate (Appendix D, Panel 106-A Replacement). The feeder for Panel 106-A comes directly from the switch gear. Confirmation of circuits and a balanced load per this Scope of Work. This will include the installation of a separate switched light in the electrical room, and the relocation/ replacement of a camera and a fire sprinkler head.

Contractor shall confirm existing conditions for construction. The new electrical panels will need to support a minimum of 42 new circuit breakers each as determined by the electrical engineer. Panels, circuit breakers and other parts will be offered to the facility maintenance staff prior to disposal. The existing panels have out of date panel schedules and the new schedules should reflect the current use. The contractor will be responsible for tracing the current usage and what each breaker is servicing. The Electrical Engineer will evaluate Arch Flash study and provide for considerations for this application and submit remediation requirements as needed. See Appendix F for the Bullet Point Scope of Work document.

Information provided by the Electrical Engineer shall require verification by the contractor who receives a contract for this project.

Contractor shall completely prepare the site for building operations, including demolition, infection control and replacement of existing electrical panels, wiring, and associated equipment, to include all labor and

materials required to perform the work for this project as required.

The project is an electrical modernization project. Contractor to determine the best engineering solution (Value Engineering) to install the new panels for Ft Harrison approval. The contractor shall provide full coordination drawings (existing and new as-built constructed drawings) as part of this project.

CURRENT CONDITIONS

The Canteen panels are currently served from building 154, room 144 (DEE panel) at the VA hospital, Ft. Harrison. There is a 2500A 208Y/120-volt distribution board located on the room, the main distribution board is in fair condition. The main distribution board feeds equipment that ranges in age from original construction in 1961 to equipment that has been installed within the past few years. This information must be confirmed by the Contractor.

Although some of the electrical distribution is nearing the end of its useful life, no additional electrical distribution equipment replacement is anticipated because of this project. The new meter shall be provided by the contractor, the current metering system the Square D Power logic, which is monitored and recorded by the facility.

The emergency power for Building 154 is provided by a 500-kW generator that was installed in 2000. The generator feeds four ASCO 7000 transfer switches serving Life Safety, Critical and Equipment loads.

PHASING PLAN

Since the affected areas are occupied Monday-Friday the contractor will be required to submit a detailed phasing plan to the COR for approval to the government prior to starting any work. The phasing plan should have as a minimum, an option to keep the impacts limited as much as possible. Working nights and/or weekends may be necessary to facilitate the continuous operation of services throughout the project.

SITE INVESTIGATION

The Contractor is responsible to conduct appropriate site investigation to obtain all information necessary to complete project activities. The VA will provide reference documents to the extent possible but does not guarantee the accuracy of such documents. The responsibility to verify all necessary information to complete Construction services belongs to the Contractor. Accuracy of existing drawings will be ascertained, and a conditional assessment of existing equipment/ material will be determined. Incomplete and fragmented site investigation by the contractor shall not be a justification to reduce the scope or increase contract price. Change orders will not be issued for increases to contract price.

DELIVERABLES

The Contractor will provide all equipment, manpower, sub-contractors, and materials necessary to produce a quality finished product, as-built constructed drawings, training, and spare equipment, tools and parts as defined in the specifications and or drawings. The construction work schedule will be modified or accelerated to meet government goals for delivery dates as defined in the contract at no additional cost to the government. All work must meet all infection control regulations, applicable codes, regulations, and standards. A construction safety plan is also required for this effort.

PROJECT SCHEDULE

The contractor will submit the proposed work schedule for approval within the time period specified during the pre-construction meeting. The contractor is responsible to supply all equipment, materials, manpower and Insurance and Bonding required to perform the work.

PRIVACY STATEMENT

Information Security: The C&A requirements do not apply, a Security Accreditation Package is not required. Incidental exposure to protected health information may occur from accessing the work site. Staff will follow all Privacy & Security policies and procedures.
