Both units are well past their useful life. The selected A/E will be required to perform a heating and cooling load analysis of the first and second floors of B32 in order to properly size the unit for the building. The unit is to be an air cooled chiller whose basis of design is to be Trane. All newly installed chiller communication systems must be BAC net certified. Finally, the A/E will site the new chiller in as convenient a spot as possible. Because this work will most likely be done during the cooling season, a phasing plan will be required All designs will ensure that the VHA policy for HVAC requirements meets or exceeds current industry code, standards, and requirements. These shall include, but are not limited to, VA Space Planning Specifications, the Interim Memorandum, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation, American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers in conjunction with the VA Master specifications as outlined in VA Handbook 7610. The design will also be done to ensure that it meets all the requirements and specifications for local, state, and federal building codes. The estimated construction cost for the design must fall within the VA budget. A/E SCOPE OF SERVICES 1. Provide investigative and schematic design services, construction documents including submittals, working drawings, specifications, cost estimates, shop drawing review and construction period services as required to renovate the area. Services will include all Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing or any other Engineering or Architectural work associated with this project. Final design submission shall include phased drawings of all abatement, demolition, and construction work as required to allow the continuous use, with minimal interruption of services, to all of the associated areas.. Provide an asbestos review during the design as needed. 2. Provide contract specifications utilizing the VA Master Specifications available at www.cfm.va.gov/TIL/. Edited specifications are to be provided to the Bath VAMC electronically by either email or on a CD rom. All edited specifications are to be edited to the specified project and have all impertinent specs and information removed. 3.
