Introduction
This document states the minimum submission requirements in the production of Pre-Design, Schematic Design, Design Development, and Construction Documents for Major VA New Facilities, Major Additions, & Major Renovations for Medical Center Projects. It will give VA reviewers and the A/E a clear understanding of what is required of the A/E at each stage of design.
This document does not relieve the A/E of their professional responsibility to produce a correct, complete, and fully coordinated set of construction documents.
VA considers originality and imaginative design as an essential part of the A/E's responsibility. A total environmental approach is a necessity. Proposed options must illustrate a plan that is patient-centered, functional, and aesthetically appropriate for the type of medical service being provided.
