Project 589A7-21-132 Construct Centralized Emergency Power System Robert J. Dole VA Medical Center The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office (NCO) 15, has a requirement to Construct Centralized Emergency Power System, project number 589A7-21-132, located at the U.S Department of Veterans Affairs, Robert J. Dole VA Medical Center 5500 E Kellogg Dr, Wichita, KS 67218 The following narrative is intended to provide an overview of the scope of work for the proposed project. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND SCOPE 1. Purpose of Project The Robert J. Dole VA Medical Center requires the services to Construct Centralized Emergency Power System. T This project will construct a new, centralized emergency power system to enhance the emergency power capabilities of the Robert J. Dole VA Medical Center. This upgrade will support the current facility and future campus expansion of up to 150,000 additional square feet. The project will replace multiple distributed generators with a single, state-of-the-art, medium voltage power generation and distribution facility designed for resilience, security, and operational efficiency. Work will be executed in accordance with the project drawings and specifications, which have been developed by an Architectural-Engineering firm. These documents detail the scope and standards for the work to be performed in addition to any supplemental information provided in this document. 2. Scope of Work The work includes, but is not limited to, the following: Electrical Centralized Generation: Install three new paralleled 3MW, 12.47kV diesel generators and associated paralleling switchgear to provide reliable N+1 emergency backup power for the campus and future expansions. Distribution Networks: Construct new underground, concrete-encased duct banks for both normal and emergency medium voltage power loops, including new pad-mounted stepdown transformers at each building. Campus Integration: Decommission and remove existing localized life safety generators and fuel tanks, integrating all facilities into the new centralized emergency power system. System Controls and Testing: Provide and connect load bank for generator testing, integrate start signals at all automatic transfer switches, and ensure system delivers emergency power within code-mandated timeframes. Low Voltage & Controls: Install new dedicated low voltage (including fiber optic as necessary) communication duct banks for system controls and tie all security and monitoring equipment back to campus head-end systems. Mechanical Building HVAC: Furnish and install dedicated HVAC systems for temperature regulation of generators, electrical switchgear, and support spaces, including steam heating and DX cooling per VA design standards. Ventilation: Provide appropriately sized air intake/exhaust systems with impact-rated louvers, attenuators, and fans to maintain safe and efficient generator operation. Fuel Oil Storage & Handling: Supply and install two 40,000-gallon double…
