Y -- AEROMEDICAL CLINIC, EDWARDS AFB, CA SOL DACA05-99-R-0011 DUE 030499 POC Purchasing Agent Bill Nevius (916) 557-7942 (Site Code DACA05) PROJECT TITLE. Aeromedical Clinic, Edwards AFB, CA.This proposed contract is Unrestricted. JOB DESCRIPTION. Construct an addition to and complete an alteration to existing building 3925. The facility will be constructed with concrete foundation and structural steel frame. Work includes associated site and utility work, Communications, landscaping, and all required building systems, including medical equipment. Work also includes demolition and hazardous materials abatement. The Aeromedical Services Clinic is a 2,363 square meter multifunctional medical facility serving Aerospace Medicine and includes a Flight Medicine Clinic, a Physical Exams Department, a Military Public Health Clinic, and Ophthalmology Clinic, and a Bioenvironmental Engineering/Laboratory component. The facility will provide emergency response to the Flightline for medical and bioenvironmental emergencies and will be equipped to support emergency portable generators. A minor surgery suite will be provided within the Flight Medicine component. The building features a complex curved standing seam metal roof with an exposed structural steel frame, curved and tapered steel girders, and cantilevered steel eaves and sun screening devices. The roof system is the dominant design feature with a curved structural steel frame reguiring precise fabrication and installation. Work includes associated site and utility work, communications, landscaping, and all required building systems to meet national building codes and medical criteria. The building systems include a constant air volume mechanical system with a Direct Digital Control system, electrical system with a new 12.47 Kv transformer, and the communication system with fiber optic service, televideo conferencing, public address, intercom, intrusion detection and nurse call. Other critical features include: 1. Technically advanced and highly specialized medical equipment and associated casework, utilities, shielding and air quality standards. These are primarily found in the laboratory, pharmacy, and radiology, but can also be found in spaces located throughout the facility. 2. Extremely advanced information/data equipment/systems and infrastructure to include cutting edge Tele-radiology and Tele-medicine. 3. Complex HVAC systems required for medical facilities(e.g., air changes and filtration for procedure and treatment rooms, isolation rooms, laboratory). 4. Specialized construction required for acoustics(walls, ceilings, ducts), radiology shielding(highly regulated), and lighting. It is the District's feeling that the complexity of the roof system as well as the 4 items listed in detail above will not lend themselves to an 8(a) or SB Set Aside procurement environment. The acquisition method is negotiated procurement. A technical and cost proposal will be required. Evaluation by the Government will result in selection of a firm that represents the best advantage to the Government. SIC CODE. This procurement will be conducted under SIC code: 1542.
