Statement Of Work: Summary The west side passenger elevator in the Gus Solomon Building has been out of service for several weeks because of a short to ground in the motor armature presumed to have been caused by a sheet metal screw falling onto the energized armature from the ceiling. Purpose The purpose of this work is to get the elevator repaired and back in service as soon as possible at a reasonable cost to the government. An alternative to repairing the existing armature is to purchase and install a new gearless hoisting machine if it will not add significant time or cost to the Government. A new geared machine could be considered if it is feasible to make alterations to accommodate the configuration of the existing machine room Requirements 1. Contractor shall investigate conditions and make recommendations on the feasibility of a repair or replacement. Contractor shall provide recommendations in their firm’s quotation to the Government. 2. Contractor shall review the Statement of Services and may participate in walk-through of the service site to demonstrate an understanding of the requirements when submitting a quotation to the Government. 3. The contractor, based on the requirements and the site visit, shall examine the following options and provide the Government with a quotation that addresses the contractor’s findings, recommendations, anticipated time line, and price for each option that the contractor deems to be feasible: a. Option one; Determine if the armature repair is feasible. If an armature repair is recommended, the contractor shall include motor vendor’s shop pricing as a separate line item presented in quotation to the Government. b. Option two; The alternative is possible of purchasing and installing a new gearless hoisting machine if it will not add significant time or cost to the Government. c. Option three; A new geared machine could be considered if it is feasible to make alterations to accommodate this configuration in the existing machine room. d. Option four; any contractor discovered option. 4. Upon review of the requirements and/or examination of the elevator’s current condition that contractor shall determine if craning machine assemblies to the roof are necessary for the repair, the contractor shall provide a structure evaluation of the roof and submit this evaluation and a roof protection plan with the Project Plan in the contractors quotation if this approach is chosen. 5. If option one is chosen the contractor must remove armature and driver assembly from hoisting machine, separate the driver from armature, lower armature through hatch and down one of the other elevators, then transport it to and from motor repair vendor. The contractor would be required to reinstall the repaired armature to produce a completely functional and running elevator and be available for any post repair testing or inspections. New motor bearings or any other recommended upgrade should be presented to GSA if they would be prudent to sustain the life of the hoisting machine. 6. Contractor shall determine if winching machine assemblies up the stairways is necessary for the repair of the elevator. If this approach is chosen the contractor shall provide a structural evaluation of the involved building systems and submit this evaluation and structures protection plan with the Project Plan in their firm’s quotation. 7. Contactor shall identify all subcontractors when responding to this Request for Quote. Additional Requirements: a. Provide all materials, labor and vendor services required to produce a complete repair as described in this Statement of Services. b. Unless specified otherwise, all new products are to comply with Building Standards. Building Standards are provided in “Guides and Standards” section of the SOS. c. Contractor shall clean area and remove all trash created by the contractor on a daily basis; dust and other airborne materials are to be contained and removed. Contractor shall provide their own waste removal. The existing building solid waste disposal system is not to be used for construction waste. d. Contractor shall develop and implement a waste management plan, quantifying materials. Recycle and/or salvage at least 50% of construction and demolition materials. Calculations can be done by weight or volume, but must be consistent throughout the project. e. Contractor is responsible to secure any needed permits. GSA will provide for third party inspections if needed. Constraints 1.The existing hatch opening is large enough to accommodate the armature so the contractor must remove armature and driver assembly from hoisting machine and separate driver from the armature before lowering it down the service hatch. 2. If the contractor wishes to use the service hatch for machine assemblies larger than the armature the contractor must submit with their proposal subcontractor costs for abatement of the pipe insulation and rerouting the two steam pipes that partially obstruct the service opening. Alternatively, any new assemblies maybe disassembled to fit up through the hatch then reassembled. 3. The egress to the freight elevator is constructed with a wooden ramp with a rise of approximately 5/8” per foot. The weight bearing ability of this ramp is unknown. If the contractor wishes to use this ramp the contractor is responsible for the discovery of it’s structural integrity and for the repair costs of any damage that may incur. The freight elevator has a 42 inch door and the interior cab dimensions are 58” wide x 68” deep. It has a 2500 lb rating. 4. Rather than deal with the wooden ramp issue the contractor may chose to roll equipment across the seventh floor to the east passenger elevator. It has the same weight rating as the freight elevator (2500 lbs), a 42” door and the cab is shaped differently at 72” wide and 55” deep. The carpeting is fragile so putting down plywood is suggested. 5. NO hand trucks, carts, dollies or equipment is to be rolled through the 1st floor Broadway entrance because of damage to the pressure sensitive mats. 6. The existing maintenance contract is with Kone. They have done the initial disassemblyand troubleshooting. If the successful offorer is other than Kone they would need to re-hang the cab and cables and return Kone’s rigging to them. 7. Any new hoisting machine assemblies must be compatible with the existing Montgomery control panel Additional Constraints 1. Work may be performed during normal business hours which are 6am to 5pm M-F. Work hours and schedule must be coordinated with the GSA Property Manager and the GSA Project Manager. 2. During business hours service site must be secured for ensure safety of all persons with appropriate signage applied to prevent entry of customers and staff. 3. Contractor is responsible to coordinate and pay the building maintenance service provider (TSSI) for their services as needed in relation to building utility systems that interface with this project. 4. Asbestos fibers have been identified in the Building Asbestos Survey in piping insulation that is in close proximity of the work site. This pipe insulation is protected by a steel jacket. If the contractor inadvertently damages materials that contain asbestos fibers GSA will manage any repair or abatement but GSA reserves the right to recover costs from the contractor. The contractor will bear any responsibility for delays in the project process caused any such damage to materials containing asbestos fibers 5. Protect finishes, equipment, carpeting, elevator doors and cab and surrounding tenants from dust and damage. 6. Coordinate access and parking with GSA Project Manger. 7. Project must be scheduled to minimize the time that adjacent spaces are off line and unavailable for use by the building tenants. Guides and Standards 1.
