Contracting Officer s Representative (COR) Name: Conner Appelgate Section: Engineering Address: 3200 Vine St. Cincinnati, Oh 45220 2. Background & Scope Provide labor, materials, and equipment to prepare the 2025 Joint Commission Statement of Building Conditions for Buildings #1, 2, 3, 8, 14, 15, 16, & 64 at our Cincinnati Campus. The requirements for buildings 1 and 2 at the main campus shall be completed first and foremost as these are directly tied to Joint Commission requirements. This includes: Conducting a survey to determine compliance with current editions of NFPA 101, Life Safety Code. Evaluate the existing fire and smoke barrier walls and make recommendations to decommission the walls and cross corridor doors that are no longer required. Conduct a random survey of 25% of the fire and smoke barrier walls, above the ceilings, to confirm locations and construction. All life safety elements represented by NFPA 101 must be labeled such as different fire and smoke barrier times (30 min., 1 hour, 2 hours etc.), suite designations, areas open to corridor-with smoke detection, Areas open to corridor with no smoke detection required and proper distinction between them. All life safety, fire safety elements are labeled in the drawings as well as given a numerical value, with applicable updates made for altered components. (Egress pathways, exit signage, sprinkler systems, suppression systems, hazardous area protections, equipment and utility shut-offs). A numbering system shall be developed and illustrated on the statement of condition drawings so that maintenance may utilize these as a primary reference for future joint commission documentation. Ref A_2020 Fire Barrier Inspection (Reference for Numbering) and Ref B_2020 Fire Door Inspection (Reference for Numbering) demonstrate what the numeric numbering format should entail, Ref C_2020 SOC Set (Reference for Numbering) demonstrates what a statement of conditions set with the reference numbers incorporated might look like, and Ref D_2022 SOC Set (Most Recent Reference) is the most recent statement of conditions set for buildings 1 and 2 of the main campus. Deviations from NFPA 101 will be identified and documented, so that maintenance related work orders and Plans for Improvement (PFI) can be developed. Review our electronic Joint Commission data and assist in its update. Provide a Statement of Qualifications, General Building Occupancy, Equivalencies approved by the Joint Commission, Life Safety Assessments, Floor Plans showing features of fire protection & life safety, recommendations on how to correct any non-compliant items, and a preliminary Plan for Improvement on items that are not easily correctable. All these documents shall be in Microsoft Word format. Any deficiencies that can be corrected through a normal work order process will be provided in a separate list. A final paper and electronic copy of the Statement of Conditions, after all the reviews have been completed. The C&A requirements do not apply, and that a Security Accreditation Package is not required. Address and incorporate VAMC feedback into final deliverable. Upon completion of the update to the drawing set, a licensed Professional Engineer (P.E.) will perform a final review and certification of the plan. 3.
