UCLA - 200 Medical Plaza, Third Floor Master Plan Study

ADVERTISEMENT FOR EXECUTIVE ARCHITECT UCLA requests a written response to this Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to select an Executive Architect for the proposed 200 Medical Plaza, Third Floor Master Plan Study project (No. CP1416). The Peter Morton Medical Building is on the UCLA main medical campus at 200 UCLA Medical Plaza, Los Angeles, CA 90095. The building, constructed in 1990, is an approximately 360,000 gross square foot (GSF) outpatient medical facility with six stories and two subterranean levels. UCLA Health proposes to select an executive architect to plan the renovation of approximately 10,000 square feet on the 3rd floor of 200 Medical Plaza. The scope of work will include, but is not limited to, program improvements for the Medical Procedure Unit (MPU), infusion services, and other administrative and specialty clinic spaces. The renovations will also include improvements to patient treatment areas, exam rooms, and associated support service spaces. The construction cost for the project has not yet been determined; however, the entire renovation project is anticipated to be approximately $15 to $20 million, depending on the agreed-upon scope of work and the number of required separately permitted projects. Responses to this RFQ should demonstrate familiarity and experience in the planning, design, and construction administration of administrative, clinical, apheresis, and medical procedure suites, including security applications, equipment selection, and interior finishes appropriate for an MPU. Personnel proposed for this project must also demonstrate expertise in California's Department of Health Care Access and Information (HCAi) for OSHPD 3 (Clinic), National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) regulations, California Department of Public Health requirements (Title 22), and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The final selection and appointment of the architect for the proposed project are contingent upon project approval by the University of California Board of Regents or their delegated authority, and per the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The project is subject to review and approval by the UC Board of Regents or their delegated authority. The selection committee will base its review of the Executive Architect's submitted proposals and selection on the Selection Criteria form (Attachment A). This RFQ is for full design services, including the schematic design, design development, interior package, construction documents, cost estimate, assistance during the bid/award phase, construction administration, record documents, and project closeout; however, the University reserves the right to defer negotiations concerning services other than pre-design studies until the completion of the pre-design phase.
