Description
The Department of Veterans Affairs is conducting a market survey for the EHRM Infrastructure Upgrades Construction project at the VAPHS H.J. Heinz Campus in Pittsburgh, PA. The project involves upgrading the infrastructure to support the new Electronic Health Records Modernization (EHRM) system, including construction work, campus-wide fiber backbone underground routing, and renovation of existing rooms and telecommunication closets. The project is estimated to last 730 calendar days and has a magnitude of construction between $20,000,000 and $50,000,000.
• The project includes construction work in multiple existing buildings on the VAPHS Heinz VA campus.
• The upgrade to the infrastructure will include campus-wide new fiber backbone underground routing and require excavation, trenching, and reinforced concrete duct bank with associated access points.
• The project will require providing all construction-related services, including labor, materials, and equipment.
• The government may use a Project Labor Agreement (PLA) for this project, and contractors are requested to provide information on their experience with PLAs and their potential impact on the project.
