The SCIP process includes development of 10-Year action plans and budget year business cases to close performance gaps (space, utilization, facility condition, access, etc.) and enhance healthcare and delivery of services and benefits to the nation s Veterans.
To better estimate all-in project costs (e.g., furniture, equipment, information technology, staffing. etc.) and to provide documentation for budgetary requests required for project activation funding, a model for calculating these costs in advance of and during construction is necessary to plan and redistribute funding as project schedules change.
The model will be based on the Space and Equipment Planning Software (SEPS). Each Construction project and Major Lease are required to submit a SEPS plan during the SCIP submission. That SEPS plan will become the baseline for Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment (FF&E) funding.
Scope of Work: The contractor shall be responsible for the following:

Additionally, the contractor shall provide a mid-year update to assist VHA in providing the most accurate data to VHA finance for funding requests; validation that the initial update is still accurate based on the midyear project changes. Initial and mid-year update estimates will include recurring and non-recurring for all types and sizes of VHA capital projects, and all inputs, and outputs previously included in the estimates, and as needed, changes the contractor may recommend improving the accuracy of the estimates. The estimates should provide all required documentation to respond to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and Congressional requests for information regarding activation costs.
