- Description
- The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Directorate of Contracting intends to insert a brand name specification into a firm fixed price contract for Project Number VA-0007-2016, New Bed Tower, Tampa, Florida. The New Bed Tower is an addition to the VA's James A. Haley Veterans Hospital (JAHVH) campus. It consists of 222,000 gross square feet and will feature approximately 100 medical surgical single patient rooms and 40 intensive care unit beds, as well as assorted support, education and canteen service spaces. The integration of building systems for the addition with the rest of the campus is critical to the operations, management, and ultimately the treatment of patients at JAHVH. The design for the New Bed Tower calls for a Carrier Centrifugal Chiller System like that used throughout the JAHVH campus. As the New Bed tower is integral to the treatment of patients at JAHVH, facility operations, management, and protection systems must be seamless throughout the entire campus. The Carrier Centrifugal Chiller System is a constant and variable speed proprietary system that is under a service contract that services all Carrier equipment. This system is critical for the VA Hospital to reliably maintain pressure vessels, positive pressure compressors, low voltage control circuits, low industry refrigerant leakage rates, semi-hermetically sealed compressor, motor, and transmission, automated control testing, and refrigerant-cooled, unit mounted variable frequency drives throughout our facility. JAHVH must be able to efficiently and effectively maintain this system in its facilities, ensuring energy efficiency and comfort for patients, staff, and visitors, using equipment specifically designed to interface with the building systems already in place. It is the Government's position that because the Carrier Centrifugal Chiller System for the New Bed Tower must seamlessly interface with the system used throughout the campus, and that the system is proprietary and any attempt to make it interface with other systems, if possible, is cost prohibitive, this system is the only feasible alternative for the New Bed Tower. However, the Government seeks comments from vendors regarding its position and, if any, reasonable alternatives. Please submit all capability statements to Jason Dalton at Jason.J.Dalton@usace.army.mil. NO FAXED DOCUMENTS WILL BE ACCEPTED.
