VA directives, design manuals, and Master Specifications (PG-18-1); comply with VA safety signage, ICRA guidance, and VA Elevator design guidance. Base bid shall include all items listed on the drawings and in the specifications. Submit a detailed baseline schedule for VA approval, reflecting all phases of work, milestones, inspections, and commissioning activities. Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) & work restrictions: Mechanical room: ICRA Class III. Elevator lobbies (active work): ICRA Class III; predominantly night work; plastic barriers removed each morning and reinstated nightly. Elevator shafts: ICRA Class II with one car kept active during the other car s work scope. Provide negative air, HEPA filtration, dust-tight barriers, sticky mats, and debris management per approved ICRA plan. Schedule noisy/vibration work off-hours. Maintain egress, fire-life safety, and hospital security at all times. Phasing & sequencing (contractor to detail means/methods): Phase 1 (60 days): Engineer/vendor submittals for long-lead equipment. Phase 2 (120 days): Material acquisition; establish ICRA barriers. Phase 3 (14 days): Demolish old equipment; begin pit work/sump base. Phase 4 (21 days): Paint half the mechanical room floor at P-5; 7-day cure; route/rough-in sump discharge to mech room; defer mech room wall paint to Phase 10. Phase 5 (60 days): Install P-5 modernization equipment (incl. lobby call stations). Phase 6 (30 days): Paint P-5 pit walls/floor; test and turnover P-5. Phase 7 (7 days): Re-set ICRA barriers; prep P-6 for work (COR inspection/approval). Phase 8 (28 days): Demolish P-6 equipment; pit work and floor paint with 7-day cure. Phase 9 (45 days): Install P-6 modernization equipment. Phase 10 (30 days): Paint mechanical room walls and pits; test and turnover P-6; complete BMS/EMCS connections and testing. Phase 11 (30 days): Project closeout, O&M/Training; commissioning completed. Total of 445 days. Protect adjacent finishes; cap/terminate abandoned utilities; manage, containerize, and dispose of waste per VA environmental procedures (recycle where practicable). If ACM is confirmed, perform abatement under the approved plan before disturbance. Controls & operation: Replace relay logic with a microprocessor controller (BoD Smartrise or equivalent), providing: simplex/duplex operation as required, emergency power capability, onboard diagnostics, landing control system, FF Service Phases 1 & 2, independent service, hoistway access, car-top operation, timed lighting/fan control, and emergency-power pre-transfer signal integration (two-wire from building switchgear). Hydraulic package: Replace/upgrade hydraulic machines and associated components (BoD EECO or equivalent): dry tanks, (Maxton/EECO or equivalent) control valves, motors, pumps, pit shut-off valves, and new Victaulic gaskets, complete with new wiring. Door equipment: Replace hall door equipment, car door operators, and car door equipment (BoD GAL or equivalent). Provide new hoistway doors with stainless steel skins; polish/renew existing stainless hall frames. Fixtures & signaling: Replace hall pushbuttons, main COP, auxiliary COP, combination hall direction/car position indicators, and emergency power jewel; integrate jewel pre-transfer signal (two-wire from switchgear to controller). (BoD Innovation for fixtures.) Cab interiors: New cab interiors, new flooring, new covers for the existing stainless side lighting (retain system, replace covers), new car doors; polish interior stainless steel. Elevators P-5/P-6 to match the new car scheme already deployed in D-Wing. Machine Room: Dedicated 110V car-light disconnect; car lights on a dedicated circuit (panel AB-2 has spares). Illumination: provide 200 lux measured at floor. GFCI outlet on a dedicated source. Environmental: Provide exhaust/heat to maintain 45 90°F, 95% RH.
