PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Summary of work to be done at the federal building at 715 Peel,
for the CBSA and CIC:
The Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) and Citizenship and
Immigration Canada (CIC) are located in the Federal Building at
715 Peel. Each of these two governmental departments will
undergo a major refurbishment project.
Planning is at an advanced Design Development stage. A
significant amount of information is available to facilitate the
understanding of each project.
As part of the work for each of the two projects, the following
activities will be required, without limitation:
- Familiarise oneself with the advanced Design Development
documents, the Supplementary Electromechanical Technical Brief
and all other available documentation.
- Conduct surveys and drawings following the review of the
available information.
- Produce complete construction documents while performing all
required services.
- Locate the necessary building services and identify connection
points.
- Plan for all temporary spaces.
- Rearrange client spaces on multiple levels, in compliance with
the Workplace 2.0 initiative standards
- Connect all furniture and equipment.
- Coordinatewith Shared Services Canada for IT requirements.
- Assess and analyze existing security systems and integrate new
requirements. New and existing components must be compatible and
adequately detailed.
- Respect the heritage requirements.
- Obtain Silver LEED-CI certifications.
The implementation of these projects requires planning over
several phases. It is expected that CIC be the first project to
undergo contruction work, followed by CBSA. The multiple phases
of work must be analyzed and validated by the consultants. The
building's services cannot be interrupted in order to maintain
the operations of the other occupants in the building.
The Federal Building at 715 Peel must comply with a set of
security requirements. Visitors are accompanied at all times by
commissionaires.
SCHEDULE
It is anticipated that the contract award be expedited following
the closing of the RFP. Work should begin shortly thereafter.
Schedules for both projects will have to be defined by the
consultant in coordination with the construction manager. The
schedule will identify all construction phases, including
temporary work. The two renovations projects will have to be
completed within a tight schedule. Compliance with the delivery
dates of these renovations projects is essential.
The CIC renovation project must start first; the CBSA project
will follow. Overlapping of both construction projects should be
considered in order to meet the schedule.
Substantial completion of the CBSA Major Renovations project
must be achieved by October 27th 2017. Employee move-in must be
completed by November 5th 2017.
It is strongly recommended to complete the CIC Major Renovations
project as soon as possible, to allow CBSA to meet its
substantial completion target date.
