The Coatesville VA Medical Center is soliciting proposals under Solicitation No. VA244-17-R-1492 for the following: Replace Steam and Condensate Mains, Oval 2 and Outlying Buildings, Project No. 542-10-101. This project replaces the steam system condensate return mains and portions of the steam distribution mains at drip stations in all of Oval 2, which includes Buildings 38, 39, 57, 139, 58 and 59 and the connecting tunnels. This project replaces steam-to-water heat exchangers, pressure reducing stations in the service rooms, steam main isolation valves and condensate main piping and all insulation. It also converts the heating systems in Buildings 36 and 40 from steam heat to gas-fired heat. Piping replacements mainly occur in the below-floor crawl spaces. Some of the replacements occur in Building 59 basement level support spaces. Some reconfiguration of service room equipment is required to accomplish the work, including the addition of equipment platforms. The work includes all associated architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical and control work. It also includes temporary/portable steam generator service, temporary piping connections and any associated site restoration. The buildings must remain fully operational while the work is being completed. The Contractor shall provide all necessary labor, materials, tools, equipment, transportation, permits testing, reports and supervision as necessary to accomplish the work and in accordance with federal, state and local codes and regulations.
