The VA Audie Murphy facility in San Antonio, TX, is initiating a comprehensive renovation of Operating Room 2 (OR 2) as part of its ongoing commitment to modernization and operational excellence. This project encompasses the removal of existing medical equipment, including a Classic Equipment Boom, Classic Anesthesia Boom, two Visum Dual Suspension LT/FP units, and an SPI3 in the Stryker Doc Station, and will install new Stryker S-Series Anesthesia Boom, Oculan Dual Suspension LT/FP units, and COR IP in-room system, fully integrating these with the current Stryker Doc Station. All work will be conducted during regular business hours and completed in a single phase. Project management will ensure seamless coordination between VA personnel, Stryker staff, and all associated trades, with an on-site supervisor orchestrating scheduling, delivery, inspection, and certification activities, while also securing all requisite electrical permits and documentation. Strict interim infection control protocols will be in effect throughout the renovation, including Class IV containment, diffuser sealing, strategically placed air scrubbers, and a plastic ante room with sticky floor mats, with the hospital responsible for mobile equipment removal and protective covering of immovable assets. Demolition and debris removal including outdated equipment will be managed via on-site dumpsters, while new rack fans and square speakers will be installed as specified. The structural integrity will be verified by a deflection test following equipment installation, with Stryker-provided mounting plates installed and any necessary structural remediation subject to additional fees. Electrical updates will include the relocation of circuits, installation of junction boxes and conduits, final connections to all new Stryker devices, and the re-termination of data at the anesthesia boom location. Plumbing activities involve capping, rerouting, and upgrading medical gas lines and risers, with all work third-party tested and certified. Finish work will address patching, painting (hospital to provide paint), ceiling modifications, and preparations for a final terminal clean, ensuring a professional restoration of the operating environment. Excluded from this scope are the furnishing and physical install of Stryker equipment (as addressed in a separate equipment quote), fire suppression, post-tension scanning, asbestos and mold abatement, as well as any unspecified activities. The work will proceed on a mutually agreed-up-upon schedule, with any changes or interruptions possibly incurring additional costs. All pricing is valid for 90 days and exclusive of applicable taxes, and installation must be completed within 30 months of order placement, as per Stryker policy. This Statement of Work outlines the responsibilities, scope, and protocols necessary to deliver a state-of-the-art surgical suite, aligning with the VA s operational and clinical objectives.
