- Description
- PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE FOR This project includes upgrades to the 4th Floor TB Isolation Rooms located in Building No. 1 of the Oscar G. Johnson VA Medical Center in Iron Mountain Michigan. The existing Isolation rooms are not designed to meet current "HVAC Design Guidelines" and airflow volumes do not meet minimum air changes recommended by Centers for Disease Controls (CDC). The two isolation rooms share a single exhaust system, and the ducts are inadequately sealed. The system is unreliable due to inadequate controls, and the outdoor termination is at roof level, rather than 10 feet above the roof. The project will consist of new dedicated isolation room exhaust fans with variable speed control to assure proper airflow in each isolation room. Ducts will be replaced with properly sealed and labeled ducting, and the two isolation rooms will have independent pressure monitoring and alarms to verify negative pressure. New supply air valves will be installed to provide a more accurate supply volume to each room. Terminations will be 10 feet above the roof of the nearby penthouse, and discharge velocities will be designed to assure that no contaminates are rejected from the building and will not pose a danger to occupants or neighbors. All work is to be completed within 180 days after the issuance of the notice to proceed. This construction project is set-aside for Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSBs). All prospective contractors must be registered on the VetBiz website, www.vetbiz.gov, to be considered for award. The solicitation, specifications and drawings will be posted on Fedbizops.
