Description of Work |
ADVERTISEMENT FOR EXECUTIVE DESIGN PROFESSIONAL UCLA requests a written response to this Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to select an Executive Design Professional for the proposed campus Decarbonization Implementation Projects Study (Project 908073.01). UCLA conducted a study of campus energy infrastructure and developed a strategy for a 90 percent reduction in scope 1 emissions from fossil fuel gas use in campus energy systems from the 2019 baseline. The study, completed in 2024, outlined several scenarios for decarbonization. The recommended scenario includes the implementation of several distinct projects that, in aggregate, would achieve the desired emissions reduction. The construction cost for the project has not yet been determined and is dependent on the scope of the projects and phasing. The work may be executed in several incremental projects. The implementation of the project is dependent upon the availability of funding. The design shall comply with the University of California Policy on Sustainable Practices to achieve a minimum LEED Gold Rating. The final selection and appointment of the design professional for the proposed project are contingent upon project approval by the University of California Board of Regents or their delegated authority and per the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The project is subject to review and approval by the UC Board of Regents or their delegated authority. The selection committee will base its review of the Executive Design Professional's submitted proposals and selection on the Selection Criteria form (Attachment A). This RFQ is for full design services; however, the University reserves the right to defer negotiations concerning services other than pre-design studies until the completion of the pre-design phase. The design shall comply with the University of California Policy on Sustainable Practices (download from the UCLA Planroom project file “Documents” tab). The project must meet the California Energy Code (Title 24) energy efficiency standards and apply sustainability principles to the renovated building's systems, components, and portions of the renovated building. The complete RFQ packet will be available at, http://www.uclaplanroom.com on Thursday, June 26, 2025. Responses to the RFQ are due by or before 10:00 a.m. on July 24, 2025.

Description of Work |
ADVERTISEMENT FOR EXECUTIVE ARCHITECT UCLA requests a written response to this Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to select an Executive Architect for multiple interior, seismic, building systems, wayfinding, and landscaping upgrade projects to the recently acquired Medical Office Buildings (MOB) located at 7301, 7325, and 7345 Medical Center Drive in West Hills, CA 91307. UCLA Health proposes to select an architect to plan several projects, including the structural improvements to all three Medical Office Buildings located directly adjacent to the UCLA West Valley Medical Center. The seismic and interior improvements to the MOBs will support the long-term operation and development of the UCLA West Valley Medical Center Campus. This selection is for projects initiated through 2029. Renovations will include both building and program improvements. Building upgrades include seismic improvements, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire-life safety work, and ADA-triggered scope. The space programs for the MOBs have yet to be defined and will commence over the next few years, however, it is anticipated to include, but not limited to patient service areas for Nuclear Medicine, Radiation Oncology, Ambulatory Surgery Center and Gastrointestinal Procedures with check-in and reception areas, exam rooms, consult rooms, procedure rooms, nurse stations, blood draw, private and shared offices, conference rooms, hoteling, ancillary support, and storage spaces. The complete list of projects is not yet defined. The selected Executive Design Professional will evaluate the seismic performance of the buildings and develop a comprehensive plan and design for the seismic retrofit programs, including interior, code-compliant structural and non-structural improvements, coordination with building systems, and phasing strategies to minimize disruption to ongoing operations. The University has not determined a delivery method for projects resulting from this study, but delivery methods may include either Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) or Design/Bid/Build. Please note that if Progressive Design/Build (PD/B) is selected as a future project delivery method, the Executive Architect and any consultants participating in the development of the project on behalf of the University will be precluded from participating as a member of any prospective Progressive Design-Build Team. The construction cost for each project has not yet been determined and is dependent upon phasing. The work may be executed in several incremental projects, and the construction value of each increment may be no more than $25M. The total of all incremental projects is anticipated to be $40M to $120M, depending on the agreed-upon scope of work. Responses to this RFQ should demonstrate familiarity and experience in the Healthcare master planning design and construction. The personnel proposed for this project must also demonstrate expertise in these areas. The selection committee will base its review of the Executive Architect's submitted proposals and selection on the Selection Criteria form (Attachment A).
