Annex B, AEI for BUP
First Edition
design package, for all BUP projects (LBC&W/BB&A and other barracks) will be developed by
the geographic district. The geographic district will be responsible for the completeness of the
advertised product. The design package will incorporate the use of current HQUSACE Computer
Aided-Design and Drafting (CADD) and automation technology standards provided in EC 25-1-
243. These CADD standards should comply with the installation DPW needs and/or systems.
b. Generic Standard Design Checklist. Each generic standard design package will include a
checklist for geographic districts to use for tabulating deficiencies and validating major
component requirements (which may have been modified over the years) at each project site. A
generic construction cost estimate for a full scope rehabilitation, indicating estimated unit prices,
area cost factor, specific pricing time frame, and a model solicitation/contract package will also be
prepared by CESWF.
c. Value Engineering. The OACSIM has consented to VE studies of the generic designs for
the two standard barracks types (LBC&W and BB&A). Individual projects based on the generic
designs will undergo a Value Engineering Review, led by the district Value Engineering Officer,
focusing on potential site specific proposals and ensuring that appropriate proposals offered in the
generic study are applied at the local projects (and savings shown accordingly). VE for projects
based on non-standard designs will be in accordance with current policy, i.e., VE studies shall be
performed on all projects over M unless waived by the MSC commander. The user(s) shall be
invited to participate in the Value Engineering Review along with any needed technical support
for analysis. Construction Value Engineering Change Proposals (VECP) shall be coordinated
with the Center for Design Development (CESWF) to ensure compliance with HQ and OACSIM
wishes.
d. Metric system. In accordance with current design policy (ER 1110-345-100), O&M work
does not require the use of the metric system of measurement. The metric system of measurement
should only be used in those areas (e.g., OCONUS) where it is common practice.
e. Typical Scope of Work for Architect-Engineers (A-E) Contracts (if Applicable). The
geographic district should develop a standardized Scope of Work (SOW) for the BUP that can be
used at multiple installations for repetitive buildings. The SOW should be standardized with
examples of the requirements for the A-E as guidance on the type of design and procurement
process to which their design will be submitted.
f. Existing Conditions Survey.
(1) Building Survey. A building survey will be conducted by the design district for all
buildings to be modernized in a project in coordination with the installation DPW. This survey
will be conducted to determine the existing conditions and building deficiencies before initiating
