SIUE Health Sciences Building

The Southern Illinois University in Edwardsville was established in 1960. The scope of services provides for LEED Enhanced Commissioning Services (design and reviews, construction/field inspection and start-up, functional performance testing, including O & M training and warranty review) for the construction of a health sciences building, connections to two existing buildings and renovation to the existing buildings. Minimum of LEED Silver Certification will be required, and additional energy efficiencies will be considered. The Commissioning Agent (CxA) will work with the Bridging Firm during program analysis and throughout the development of the bridging documents, including assistance that may be necessary during preparation of the Request for Proposals (RFP) for the Design-Build Team. Major design features will include the following elements: Design considerations: - Schools of pharmacy, nursing and related health sciences programs will be accommodated in the building. - Classroom's accommodations. - Teaching/research laboratories. - Nursing simulation laboratory. - Faculty offices/administrative spaces. - Student resources and study spaces. - Parking lot and site circulation design/improvements. The scope of services also provides for the facilitation of documentation required for LEED Silver Certification. The CxA will facilitate and monitor completeness and timeliness of LEED submittals during project design phase, construction, close-out and extended warranty period. The CxA will maintain all documentation required for submittal to successfully meet the requirements of LEED Silver Certification process by the USGBC following completion of design and construction. This includes all USGBC certification fees and USGBC documents required during design, bidding, construction and project close-out. The CxA must have documented commissioning process experience on at least two building projects with a similar scope of work. The experience must extend from early design phase through at least 10 months of occupancy. It should be noted that the firm selected for Commissioning Services and any associated consultants cannot be a part of the Bridging Team and will not be allowed to be a member of the Design-Build Team.
