- Description
- Project 675-12-900 Build New Research Space - Lake Nona The Pre-Solicitation Notice VA248-12-R-1535 is amended to reflect the following information: 1.The Estimated period of performance for the Construction period of contract will be between 6 & 12 months. For a project of this magnitude and specialty, the VA anticipates at least 8 months. 2.This project will actually be construction over an existing building (the new SimLEARN) by the time this project is in the construction phase. The new SimLEARN building is currently in design and the documents are to be completed this year (FY12). The VA is not sure when that project will start its construction. The new research space of concern in this project will become the 2, 3 and 4 floors of the SimLEARN building. However, with this specific phase of this project 675-12-900, the VA is only designing and building 1 floor on one side of the building. This project is not on vacant land. 3.The project overview implies that the new research space will be built above an existing building. Was the original structure designed for the additional research space and the three additional floors referenced in the solicitation? RESPONSE: Yes, the new research space will be built above the SimLEARN building which is currently in design. That structure is supposed to be designed for 3-4 additional stories. 4.The overview also refers to a single story "floor" plate. Was the intent to require a concrete "flat" plate structural system, if so the flat plate will limit the length of span(distance between columns) of the structural system. The flat plat structural system may not be the appropriate choice given a "heavy" wet lab research type of loading. Can some clarification be made regarding the intent of the structural system. RESPONSE: The VA is looking to match the SimLearn column spacing. The current designer of the SimLEARN building is aware of the planned research space above. The huge issue here is if the VA is going to have an interstitial space or not for the lab areas. 5.Are plans(all disciplines) available for the SIM Learning Center which the new space is to be built above? RESPONSE: We will need to request drawings from activations. 6.The response date of 09-15-2012 is listed on both documents, however the SF 330 are to be submitted on June 29,2012, Please clarify. RESPONSE: The response date is June 29, 2012. 7.The closing date for RFI submissions is listed as June 18,2012 in one of the documents and June 21, 2012 in the other. Please clarify. RESPONSE: The RFI cut-off date is June 21, 2012. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. THERE ARE NO SOLICITATION DOCUMENTS AVAILABLE. Project is Subject to Availability of Funds. Point of contact is Christy Glass, Contracting Officer, PH: 407-646-4904; email: Christy.Glass@va.gov.
