ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS
*Modified by Addendum 1*
Subject to conditions prescribed by the University of California, Los Angeles, sealed bids for a lump sum
contract from prequalified bidders are invited for the following work:
DEFERRED MAINTENANCE FY2021-22 - NRB
Project Number 942418.01
DESCRIPTION OF WORK: This project will replace the obsolete Building Automation Controls and
bladder-actuated Variable Air Volume (VAV) boxes in the Neuroscience Research Building (NRB),
as identified by an Integrated Capital Asset Management Program (ICAMP) facility condition
assessment. The replacements would increase overall building efficiency, reduce future
maintenance costs, and bring the systems into compliance with current building codes. The NRB is
a six-story facility, including a basement, totaling 130,887 gsf (80,259 asf), constructed in 2004.
The building houses a vivarium, as well as wet and dry labs designed to accommodate a wide
range of research needs for the Department of Neurobiology and the Brain Research Institute,
focusing on how the brain develops, functions, and is affected by disease.
The proposed scope of work includes renovating the existing lab spaces with updated air valves for
air supply and exhaust, re-adjusting deferred maintenance items related to airflow levels,
reconnecting the valves to the existing control system, and testing and balancing for the air and
water systems. No modifications would be made to the existing life safety, smoke control, or fire
alarm sequencing, control devices, or signals. Any additional control architecture and devices
added in parallel would support only non-critical equipment and operations.
Hazardous materials abatement shall be required in survey identified areas containing lead paint if
areas disturbed.
The estimated construction cost is $6,105,294.
