- Description
- The VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System intends to negotiate on a Sole Source basis with DIRTT Environmental Solutions, Inc., 155 Knowlton Way, Savannah, GA 31407-3036, to purchase their Modular Walls, for the following reasons: "DIRTT's horizontal reveal called "the antler" means that their wall will support any furniture now or in the future, at any point along the horizontal, with no additional blocking required. Each frame can support 700lbs per side, 1400lbs total. Flat screen TVs, worksurfaces, overheads, custom millwork, artwork, etc...from any manufacturer can be accommodated. This feature was one of the reasons DIRTT was awarded GSA's Excellence in Partnership Award: Industry Green Contractor. This will allow all future component purchases to easily attach to the wall without the need to replace hardware or support for the item. This will save budget funds and allow maximum reuse. "DIRTT's wall offers the unique additional benefit of addressing various ceiling heights and aesthetics with it's removable skin and stack-on frame. This allows the stocking of "generic" wall panel frames in a standard height. A stack-on unit can then be added, along with the appropriate skin finish options to meet the needs of specific locations. "DIRTT walls are 99% reusable and 96% recyclable at end-of-life, depending on finishes chosen. oAs Per the VA GEMS program - this holds great value. "DIRTT modular wall product provides the ability to use the same modular wall product in the administrative areas as in clinical and patient care areas. The DIRTT product offers the ability to order and/or to add to existing product medical gas lines, plumbing and to provide face tiles that have infection prevention options for gaskets, solid surface and fully encapsulated tiles. Additionally, the integration of imbedded technology including racking, fans, integrated screens into the standard modular wall product is unique to DIRTT. "DIRTT's parametric design permits manufacturing of unlimited width and heights to meet any specific condition that the VA building may require. "DIRTT has the fastest lead time in the industry: 3-5 weeks from placing the order to delivery onsite. This will ensure our project stays on schedule, and if supplemental product is required in the future, we are not incurring long delays which could impact the functionality of the space. It is also essential to purchase the DIRTT Environmental Solutions, Inc. Modular Walls, since the VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System, has multiple installations of DIRTT modular walls, at both Heinz and University Drive, thus is an extension of an informal standards program, further increasing and allowing for the flexibility and reuse of existing DIRTT modular wall product. In addition, it is essential to purchase the above DIRTT Environmental Solutions Modular Walls, from DIRTT Environmental Solutions, Inc./Workscape, Inc., since they are the sole exclusive seller of the DIRTT Environmental Solutions, Inc. Modular Walls. It is also essential to have DIRTT Environmental Solutions, Inc., use their authorized dealer Wokscape, Inc. to install these items, since they are the Sole Exclusive Installer of the DIRTT Environmental Modular Walls in the Pittsburgh, PA area, and since this requirement represents the minimum need of the government and requires a turnkey job. This Notice of Intent is NOT a request for competitive proposals. Parties may identify their interest; accompanied by supporting literature, to the Contracting Officer no later than 01/11/2013 COB. Responses should be sent to ronald.mazzei@va.gov. No telephone responses will be accepted.
