1.3 Design Requirements

Provide design documents that include basis of design, design drawings and design specifications, reports and submittal register in accordance with FC 1-300-09N Navy and Marine Corps Design Procedures.
Design is the work necessary to ensure functionality, quality, and safety for critical facets of the project. Special coordination requirements such as for phone, LAN and cable, are included herein.
Part 3 contains the project description, functional and performance requirements, scope items, and expected quality levels that exceed Part 4. Part 4 identifies design criteria, verification requirements, and performance and quality requirements of products.
Provide professional registration and design signing and stamping requirements per requirements of FC 1-300-09N Design Procedures. Interior Designers must be NCIDQ certified per UFC 3-120-10 Interior Design. The design effort must be overseen by a Design Quality Control (DQC) Manager who will ensure that the design meets the requirements of this RFP. The DQC Manager will prepare a DQC Plan describing how the design process will ensure conformance to the RFP.
Provide a Contractor-originated design specification that in conjunction with the drawings, demonstrates compliance with requirements of the RFP. The specified products, materials, systems, and equipment that are approved by the DOR; submitted to the Government by the Contractor; and reviewed by the Contracting Officer must be used to construct the project. Prescriptive specification sections contained in RFP Part 5 must become a part of the Contractor-originated specification without modification. The Contractor must prepare design specifications that include a UFGS specification for each product, material, or system on the project. Organize the specifications using Construction Specification Institute (CSI) MasterFormat^TM. Provide project specifications to include the following:
1. Provide the specification cover sheet with the professional seal and signature of the lead licensed architect or engineer of the project design team. Indicate the Contractor's company name and address on the specification coversheet.
2. Table of contents for entire specification.
3. Individual UFGS specification sections for each product, material, and system required by the RFP. Edit UFGS sections in accordance with RFP Part 3 and 4.
4. If proprietary information is provided or required, include a coversheets for the product, material, or system information that is being proprietarily specified. This information must comply with the related UFGS specification.
5. If proprietary information is provided or required, include highlighted and annotated Catalog Cuts, Manufacturer's Product Data, Tests, Certificates, Manufactures information and letters for each product, material, or system that is being proprietary specified.
6. Coordinated submittal register for all products, materials and systems with each design submittal. Provide a cumulative register that identifies the design and construction submittals required by each design package along with previous design submittals. The DOR must assist in developing the submittal register by determining which submittal items are required to be approved by the DOR. Complete all fields in the final submittal register in order to obtain Government approval of the final design.
Identification of Manufacturer's Product Data Used as Specifications: Provide complete and legible catalog cut sheets, product data, installation instructions, operation and maintenance instructions, warranty, and certifications for products and equipment for which final material and equipment choices have been made. Indicate, by prominent notation, each product that is being submitted including optional manufacturer's features, and indicate where the product data shows compliance with the RFP. Attach this product data to the end of the applicable UFGS specification section that specifies the material.
Specification Software: Submit the final specification source files in either MS Word or SpecsIntact with a Submittal Register generated in Excel or SpecsIntact.
Meet sustainability requirements per UFC 1-200-02 High Performance and Sustainable Building requirements and UFGS Section 01 33 29 Sustainability Requirements and Reporting. UFGS Section 01 33 29 Sustainability Requirements and Reporting must be included in Part 5 of all project RFPs.
[Submit design drawings or sketches, calculations and manufacturer's data to demonstrate compliance with contract requirements. The Contractor is encouraged to prepare design drawings more like shop drawings to minimize construction submittals.]

NOTE: Include requirements for telephone (NCTAMS) and LAN (NMCI)

NOTE: Specific information on which version of AutoCAD should be used is available via the following link: https://www.wbdg.org/ffc/navy-navfac/cad/navfac-design-information

NOTE: Provide specifics for design packages, such as where Contractor is to submit design packages (prior to/in place of over-the-shoulder review). Recommend Over-the-Shoulder Reviews jointly with Design-Build Contractor, DOR and major subcontractors in conjunction with progress meetings.

NOTE: Length of time provided to reviewers varies between over-the-shoulder review meeting and in-progress review meeting.

[Provide [hard] [and] [electronic] copies of design submittal package to the following reviewers 21 calendar days to the in-progress review meeting. [All hard copy submittals must be on minimum 30% postconsumer fiber paper, and, when 11x17 or smaller, double-sided].

NOTE: NAVFAC's policy is that the Contractor can begin construction after the design drawings are professionally signed and sealed. Therefore, Government review of final design may happen simultaneously with the start of construction. Identify below design submittals that are exceptions to this policy and require Government approval prior to the Contractor beginning construction.

The final design submittal must be professionally signed and sealed by the DOR and forwarded to the Contracting Officer prior to the start of construction. Separated final design packages will only be considered for Government review and approval during the Post Award Kick-off Meeting. [ The following design submittals must be approved by the Contracting Officer prior to the start of construction:
1. [_____]
2. [_____] ]
Submit Draft DD Form 1354. See section 01 33 00.05 20 for detailed requirements.
