Description

PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE: The Milwaukee VA Medical Center has a need for a multi-level parking structure. This project consists of the construction of a three-level Precast Concrete Parking Structure on the VAMC Milwaukee campus. The Parking Structure will be located above Parking Lot #4 directly opposite the hospital (Building 111) main east entrance. The Parking Structure foundation will be on auger cast piles, and the at-grade level will be comprised of poured-in-place concrete strengthened by fiber reinforcement. The limits of the construction project are Ambulance Way (south), Lincoln Drive (west), Warehouse Way (north), and Surface Parking Lot #5 (east). The Parking Structure will hold approximately 360 vehicles on four levels of parking: an at-grade level plus three (3) elevated tiers. Vehicle access to and egress from the Parking Structure will be from the north at Warehouse Way (Level "LL"). There will be one stair tower at the northwest corner, and one stair/elevator tower at the southwest corner. Pedestrian access to and egress from the Parking Structure will be at Level "1" at the southwest corner stair/elevator tower and Level "LL" at the northwest stair tower. The elevator tower consists of two hydraulic elevators which will traverse four distinct levels: LL, 1, 2, and 3. The Parking Structure will require three sources of electrical power from Building 111: Normal, Life Safety, and Equipment Emergency. There is limited HVAC and plumbing work including a water wash down system for deck maintenance and the appropriate drainage systems to existing sanitary and/or storm sewerage. Lighting in the Parking Structure will be primarily by LED lighting for energy efficiency and long-life benefits. For safety and security, there will be emergency "Talk-a-Phones at each level in each of the two stairwells. The Parking Structure will NOT be served by an emergency generator. Since the Parking Structure is an open-style structure, a fire suppression (sprinkler) system is NOT required. The main hospital Fire Alarm system will, however, be integrated with the new Parking Structure. There are some utility (storm sewer, electric light pole service) relocations as a part of this project. There are two WE Energies main electrical service feeds in the project vicinity, but at NO POINT should this project have to perform any main electric utility relocation work (already completed via separate contracts). Significant geotechnical investigations have already been undertaken and are part of the contract documents. Lincoln Drive will dead-end at the south end in the police parking lot and will not intersect with Ambulance Way so that pedestrians leaving the Parking Structure do not have to cross traffic. Ambulance Way will be converted to a one-way west-bound traffic road. There is minimal landscaping work on this project outside of a drainage swale between the Parking Structure and Lincoln Drive. This structure is located in the sightlines of a National Historic Landmark District. The design of this Parking Structure was required to meet standards imposed by the National Park System, Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Archeology and Historic Preservation. Energy Efficiency Requirements: Federal Executive Order #13423 requires all energy efficient materials, equipment and systems to be evaluated and, if feasible, incorporated into V.A. projects. The A/E, prime contractor, and all subcontractors shall cooperate with the Federal Government in specifying, evaluating, documenting, purchasing, and installing energy efficient equipment that meet basic energy efficiency criteria established by the V.A. The Criteria can be defined as comparing total energy savings to total life cycle cost of the equipment. To accomplish this objective, the A/E shall produce an Energy Equipment Schedule comparing a description of each standard piece of equipment (or system) vs. a description of recommended efficient equipment (or system); including the estimated purchase price, estimated cost to install, maintain, and operate the equipment as well as the estimated annual energy usage and estimated useful life for each piece of equipment (or system). All design and installation will be in accordance with current VAMC, HVAC design guides, NEC, NFPA, ASHRAE 90.1, state, local, and all VA and federal codes. Provide energy savings equipment and design modifications for current energy usage to the most efficient and economical level possible. The NAICS code for this procurement is 236220 with a size standard of $36.5 million dollars. The project magnitude range is between $5,000,000 and $10,000,000. This procurement is a 100% set-aside for CVE-Verified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business Firms (SDVOSB)- per the authority 38 U.S.C. 8127 (Public Law 109-461).
