WORK DESCRIPTION Title: Decorative Painting - Stairway to Wellness Project Introduction and Overview The James J Peters VA Medical Center (JJPVAMC) is looking to increase stairway usage by improving the appearance of its stairways with the addition of beautiful, inspiring mural paintings painted by, preferable, a local artist. Our main hospital building consists of 9 floors and houses 500+ employees. The building structure is tall versus wide so employees spend a lot of time waiting on elevators to get to the various floors. This in not only time consuming, but employees are not taking full advantage of the opportunity to improve their health goals by using the stairs. Research shows that employees are often hesitant to take the stairs because they perceive stairwells as unattractive and/ or unsafe. Painting, artwork, motivational signs and music have all been shown to help increase the use of stairs. Stair climbing is one of the easiest ways to increase physical activity. It is low impact with significant rewards it reduces risk of coronary heart disease; improves blood pressure, blood sugar and blood lipid levels; maintains body weight and lowers risk of obesity. With the addition of this artwork, employees and veterans alike will be inspired to use the stairs and improve health. Scope of Work JJP Bronx VAMC is seeking the services of, preferable, a local mural artist to complete a mural painting project in the stairways of the hospital. Contractor shall be able to create detailed illustrations outlining artistic vision for the project - to include murals depicting Bronx landmarks with a wellness and nature theme on each of the stairway landings and the stairway walls leading up to the landings, as appropriate. Contractor shall be able to paint the murals according to the plan. Contractor shall be able to obtain all parts, materials and supplies necessary to perform the mural painting. Period of Performance The contractor shall complete the work within 4 months or less from the date of the award, unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer. If the contractor proposes an earlier completion date, and the government accepts the contractor s proposal, the contractor s proposed completion date shall prevail. The work will begin within 2 weeks of award, unless otherwise specified. Work will take place on hours that are convenient to the needs of the facility and may take place during late afternoon hours and weekends. Other Requirements The Government will require the following from contractors in order to monitor progress and ensure compliance: Weekly Status Report Weekly Meetings Monthly Progress Report Project Management Team (PMT) Meetings Program Reviews Outlines and Drafts END OF WORK DESCRIPTION DISCLAIMER This RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation.
