61 Woodland Street Hartford, CT 06105-2326 Attn: Thomas Mangiafico Project Manager Deadline is October 18, 2001 University of Alaska Fairbanks Division of Design and Construction Request for Proposals for Architectural and Engineering Services Project: Biological and Computational Sciences Facility Project No.: 2002047 BICS
BACKGROUND The University of Alaska Fairbanks has created a health care initiative and identified research space needs. The new initiative requires additional space for lecture and laboratory courses in biology to support the nursing program and molecular biology. Pre-planning documents have been developed to identify the research space needs. A new facility to support the mission of the Arctic Region Supercomputing Center has also been identified. A new Biological and Computational Sciences Facility will include modern teaching and research laboratories, classrooms, office space and a National Institute of Health compliant animal vivarium to support the new programs. The Computational Facility will accommodate the functions of the Arctic Region Supercomputing Center. The Super Computer will not be relocated. Additional infrastructure to provide utilities to this new facility is also required. SCOPE OF WORK The selected consultant will have the responsibility of designing a new Biological and Computational Sciences Facility. Elements in the new facility will include: Biological sciences facilities, computational intensive support facilities, large animal surgery and animal quarters, and utilities infrastructure. Initially the consultant would design the facility through programming and pre-schematics. The new biological facility features will include instructional labs and support space, research labs and support space, small animal vivarium, computer labs, P3 contained labs, freezer rooms, hazmat storage, lecture hall, classrooms, staff offices, graduate students space, storage and receiving area. A connection to the Arctic Health Research Building will also be required. The computational facility will include instructional space with work stations/training rooms, smart auditorium, equipment laboratories, computer aided virtual environment and visualization lab. Additional office space will be required to house the relocated Arctic Region Supercomputing Center offices, which are currently located in the Butrovich Building. Approximately $10 million is available to support the computational facility. A large animal surgery suite will be constructed in the Arctic Health Research Building. It will include a hydraulic table and overhead hoist, with high-pressure steam cleaning facilities. Additional features to be included in AHRB are: staff offices and support space, student smart classrooms and graduate student support space. This portion of the project will be in the West and South portions of the AHRB. Campus utilidor extensions will be required to provide power, communications, steam, condensate, chilled water, RO water, plant air and domestic water. It is estimated the gross area of the facility will be approximately 190,000 square feet, and total project cost may be between $70 million and $80 million. The successful consultant will be required to start and stop the design process as funding becomes available. The scope of consultant work includes:
2. Pre-Schematic Design: The preparation of schematic design studies consisting of drawings and other documents illustrating the scale and relationships of the project components for comment by the agencies. Construction cost estimate. Supplemental funding will be required to advance to the following tasks:
4. Construction Documents: The final preparation of specifications and drawings to define and detail the scope of work, materials to be used, workmanship and construction schedule. Construction cost estimate. The following pre-planning documents are attached for your information:
