This replacement hospital will be constructed on the existing Terrell Hospital site.Bed quantities are a baseline based on reasonable estimates and may increase as space and funding permit.The scope of the Project may also encompass demolition of major components of surrounding buildings and utilities as needed to implement the design, including replacement, restoration, or renovation, hazardous materials abatement planning, and consulting services. The Project might include archaeological surveys and will involve working with the Texas Historical Commission.A mandatory requirement of the Project is the assessment of existing campus utilities; mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems; and capacities for implementation of the design to extend the useful life of the new building(s) for more than 50 years.

It is the intent of HHSC to have an aggressive design and construction schedule.It is expected that the design team will fulfill the mandatory requirements, but the Contractor will be required to review and confirm the assessments.The Project schedule is very critical for the timely delivery and completion of the Project. To meet the Project timeline, HHSC is planning to have GMP at the end of the design development package or 50% Construction Documents package. Early packages might need to be issued for an early start. The phasing and early packages and the timeline associated will be finalized once the A/E team and CMR team are on board.CMR will provide appropriate services to ensure the proper flow of information is provided to enable appropriate input into and output from the BIM, including, but not limited to, importing information into the BIM, providing updated information on changes to the Project plans and specifications during construction, assisting on conflict resolution, coordinating the sharing of information, facilitating file exchange, and other deliverables as needed.Cost of Work.Respondents should consider the Cost of Work to be $380,000,000.00.
