UCLA requests a written response to this Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to select an Executive Architect for the proposed Ronald Reagan Medical Center 1st Floor Radiology Equipment Replacement Master Plan (Project #CP1511). Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center (RRUMC), located at 757 Westwood Boulevard, is a 1.2 million gsf hospital facility consisting of eight floors above grade with a mechanical penthouse and two basement levels completed in 2008. The proposed project would replace X-ray, Radiographic Fluoroscopy (RF) X-ray, and Cross-Sectional Interventional Radiology (CSIR) Ultrasound equipment and renovate the required support service spaces for the Radiology department. The project is approximately 2,200 SF within a more extensive 5,500 SF imaging suite on the first floor (ground level) of UCLA Ronald Reagan Medical Center (RRUMC). Responses to this RFQ should demonstrate familiarity and experience in planning, design, and construction administration of imaging equipment, including X-ray, RF X-ray, Ultra Sound equipment, and support service rooms. Project experience must also demonstrate familiarity with the applicable code and requirements, including Californias Department of Health Care Access and Information (HCAi) for OSHPD 1 buildings, National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) regulations, and California Department of Public Health requirements (Title 22), and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The construction cost for the project has not yet been determined and will be defined by each incremental projects scope of work and phasing requirements. During the project duration, the entire scope of work may be executed through several phased separate incremental projects. The anticipated project cost range may be between approximately $2-$3M per incremental project, with an expected total cost for the entire scope of work being between $8-$12M. For questions related to this RFQ, please contact: Tamara Sahagian UCLA Medical Center - Planning, Design, and Construction Project Manager E: tsahagian@mednet.ucla.edu T: 310-267-1834 The project is subject to review and approval by the UC Board of Regents or their delegated authority.
