- IT Drawings Amendment #2 posted 8/24/2017 Recently Asked Questions to Solicitation 17-245-SOL-00012 with responses: 1. Under the provision requirements #3 the request states to provide equipment for nurse breakrooms. Can you specify how many breakrooms are in the ED and UC areas? ED - (2) UCC - (1) 2. Under heading paragraph "B" section "d" patient room stations to accommodate both single and dual occupancy rooms - Please specify the number single occupancy and dual occupancy rooms? All exams rooms are single occupancy except the ED Trauma Bays which will be open with multiple beds and Nurse call drops. 3. Under the provision requirements #4 the request states "wireless calling" please clarify in detail the requirements of this statement? A cordless or wireless nurse call handset is needed within the system. 4. Under section "C" - "c" - all cabling to be installed in conduit, This statement conflicts with the statement below it "d" all cabling to be run in cable tray - please clarify if a 100% conduit system is required or if existing pathways and cable tray are allowable? Cable trays will be utilized in hallways to the IDF closet. Conduit will be utilized from hallway openings to exam rooms inside the walls. 5. Section "f" virtual Server shall support environment - please specify whom shall provide this server? - this is typically provided by the customer. Yes, GIMC will provide a VMware virtual host environment. 6. Additional power requirements and additional rough-in may be needed will there be an electrical contractor under the GC to provide these needs. Yes, but requirements must be specified beforehand. 7. C.2 states: "A full duplex audio functionality; including paging capability within a wireless handset." Does this mean the system only has to have the capability at this time to be able to add wireless handsets later? Yes, NCS (Nurse Call System) needs to be able to receive/transmit voice thru the patient station to master station and the NCS needs to be able to add wireless hand held devices to notify when their patients need assistance if needed for future growth. 8. C.7 states: "Incorporate wireless paging technology and mobility"; do you currently have mobile phones you wish to use with the system or do you want us to include phones as part of our bid response? If so, how many? We are looking for NCS that has the ability to utilize NCS phones and or pagers to notify the staff for help. 9. C.8 states: End user Reporting Functionality. Is the Nurse Call system required to include Reporting or only the capability of Reporting? Yes, we are looking for a NCS that has the ability for recording any alarms, assistance, codes and to see if the call was answered/acknowledged by the nurse/staff. We will need to able to access the records at any time. 10. The total counts for Patient Stations, Lavatory Stations, Staff Duty Stations, etc. do not match with the drawings. The drawings don't show all devices (i.e.: dome lights, remote cancel). Which is correct? The drawings are not the as built drawings from the contractor. Those will be release upon award. 11. We did a take-off of the plans and the plans do not match the Statement of Work. a. Which is correct? We need clarity on what "take off" is. 12. Please clarify the need of a 37 Pin Bed Receptacle in either of these areas. Per our understanding the beds in these areas will not have any functionality. We are currently using Stryker and Hilll-Rom beds (with NCS functionality). We are preparing for the possibilities that we may need these services at some point in time in the future. 13. Please clarify what is being requested for Wireless Paging. a. How do you want it to work and how many pagers? We are looking for NCS that has the ability to utilize NCS phones and or pagers to notify the staff for help when they are not with the patient. 14. Need a clarification on what you want us to provide under "Reporting Functionality". a. Does this mean we provide the reports or just the ability to add reports at a later date? 15. Need clarification on what is meant by "wireless calling"? The answer in amendment #1 does not provide any additional information. Some NCS provides hand held devices (like a phone) that nurses/doctor/staff can carry with them on the floor to keep in contact with their patient. We will need to access reports at any time and the reports will need to have the time, dates and locations of an alarm and or code that is activated by the patient or staff. 16. Will GIMC provide "AutoCAD" drawings for our use in order to provide the required submittals? a. Copies of final drawing; b. Wire management plans; ANSWER from Ali: No, GIMC will NOT provide AutoCAD drawings for this or other projects at this stage of the acquisition process. All submittals must be submitted accordingly to provided information within solicitation, scope of work and site visits. See attached IT Drawings for ED Expansion Project in PDF format. 17. Will there be an official nurse call system layout/ drawing as an amendment? See attached IT Drawings for ED Expansion Project in PDF Format.
