The scope of work for this project includes professional general contracting services for the development of an inpatient rehabilitation facility in a multi-story expansion (“the multi-story expansion”) to the existing Sarasota Memorial Hospital-Venice (SMH-V) campus. Each level will be approximately 30,000 square feet, and the new portion of the building will be approximately 60,000 square feet total. Level One will consist of the interior build-out of approximately 30,000 square feet of existing shell space for clinical and non-clinical support space. Level Two and Level Three will be inpatient rehabilitation bed units. The ground level site scope of work will include surface parking with a dedicated entrance to the inpatient rehabilitation facility. The new building may also be vertically expanded for an additional inpatient rehabilitation bed unit. The scope of professional general contracting services will include, but are not limited to, pre-construction phase services such as cost estimating, value engineering, critical path method scheduling, constructability reviews and cost control, in addition to phased construction management services, site work, parking and site work infrastructure. The site work infrastructure also includes, but is not limited to, public utilities, communications, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, medical gasses, fire protection and structural work for the development of the multi-story expansion, associated business services, and the required support services required for each, designed to allow for expansion capabilities. Furthermore, the multi-story expansion will include new surface parking to allow for the increase in pedestrian and vehicular volumes. The scope of work may include consideration of additional buildings, roadways, and services whether contiguous to the hospital or freestanding, and the associated programming of those services, but only to the extent that they are directly related to and operationally support the inpatient rehabilitation facility project.
